In 2012, Zodiac Pool Care will launch, in France, the home automation solution applied to the pool: The AquaLink TRi.
This external control device for the pool, which comes in the form of a portable control unit, is installed in the equipment room. It can operate up to four standard auxiliary units - filter pump, heat pump, lighting system, water treatment system, booster robot, counter-current swimming equipment, etc.
Besides this, the new intelligent communications protocol, "iAquaLink" built into the system will allow advanced compatibility with Zodiac TRi® salt chlorinators and various variable-speed pumps by means of a simple single-line connection (soon other products in the Zodiac Pool Care range will have the new protocol built in).
Which pool owner has not dreamed of being able to operate and control their pool from a distance? Of turning on the heat pump a few hours before reaching their holiday home? This is now a reality with the AquaLink TRi, an intelligent, easy-to-install and easy-to-configure system. The user will be able control the pool using a wireless interface either through a dedicated website, directly using a smartphone(*), or with the AquaPalm remote, available as an option. He is free to choose the most cost-effective and functional parameters that correspond to the way he uses his pool.
(*) iPhone® / iPad®, BlackBerry® and Android® apps will be available during the year.
