Not necessarily! The equipment operates on low voltage (12V, 24V) with dedicated power supply units sourced in Australia meeting the required standards. Both the units and the USB plug can be plugged directlyinto standard wall sockets.

Everything comes pre-assembled on a convenient plate for easy wall mounting. This eliminates the need for assembly and saves you time. Installation is straightforward: 1. Pair all equipment before physical installing the plate with the WIFI Pool app. 2. Place the plate on the wall where you want it near the pool equipment between the filter pump and the pool. 3. Connect the two rubber sleeves to the pipe leading from the filter pump to the pool. These sleeves should fit snugly over the existing pipe without needing glue. 4. Slide the pre-assembled device, with tubes already attached, into the rubber sleeves. 5. Secure the connections with hose clamps or other fasteners provided. In most cases, that's it! You won't need any additional gluing or sealing in a standard setup. However, if you're using a bypass valve or salt electrolysis system, you may need to do some minor gluing according to the specific instructions for those components.

If you have a full DIY version, then a couple additional steps are required. 1. Pair all equipment before physical installing with WIFI Pool app. Mounting the Modules: 2. Match the Layout: Choose a wall location near your pool equipment and mount the modules in the same order as they appear on the pre-assembled plate. This will simplify piping connections later. Installing the Salt Electrolysis Unit: 3. Position and Secure: Place the salt electrolysis unit between the filter pump and the pool. Refer to the unit's manual for specific placement recommendations. 4. Glue it in Place: Use a suitable PVC cement to securely bond the unit to the pipework. Make sure the connection is watertight. Adding Measurement and Dosing Points: 5. Tap into the Pipeline: Instead of drilling directly into the pipe, using provided tapping saddles. These offer a clean and leak-proof way to create additional connection points without compromising the pipe's integrity. 6. Connect Accessories: Use the tapping saddles to install a probe, dosing tube, earthing wire, and flow switch as needed. Follow the instructions for each accessory for proper placement and connection. Power Up: 7. Match the Supply: Connect each module to its dedicated power supply unit. Ensure the voltage and amperage ratings match the module's requirements. If it doesn't fit, you have the wrong power supply. 8. USB Connection: Finally, plug both USB cables into the provided USB plug to complete the electrical connections. Remember: 9. Always refer to the specific instructions and manuals provided with your equipment for detailed installation steps and safety precautions. 10. If you're not comfortable with plumbing or electrical work, consider consulting a professional pool technician or plumber for assistance.

Maintaining Precise Measurements with Calibration: Keeping your pool's water chemistry balanced is crucial for a clean and healthy swimming environment. To ensure accurate readings from your testing equipment, regular calibration is essential. What is Calibration? Calibration is the process of adjusting your instrument's readings to match a known reference point. This ensures that your pH and Redox probes are measuring accurately. How to Calibrate: 1. Gather Supplies: You'll need a certified buffer solution for both pH and Redox (Chlorine). These solutions come in pre-prepared bottles with a precise, known value. 2. Immerse the Probes: Submerge the pH and Redox probes in their respective buffer solutions. Consult your device's manual for recommended immersion times. 3. Adjust the Readings: Your device will have calibration buttons or prompts. Follow the instructions to adjust the readings on your device to match the known values of the buffer solutions. 4. Rinse and Store: Rinse the probes with clean water and place back into your system measuring point. Calibration Frequency: 1. Initial Calibration: Perform an initial calibration before the pool season and after any major changes to your equipment. 2. Regular Checks: Throughout the season, regularly check your pH and chlorine levels. If the readings seem inaccurate, consider recalibrating. 3. Annual Recalibration: It's good practice to perform a full calibration at least once a year, even if your readings seem consistent. Benefits of Calibration: 1. Accurate Measurements: Calibration ensures your readings are trustworthy, allowing you to make informed decisions about your pool chemistry. 2. Proper Chemical Balance: Precise readings help you maintain the ideal pH and chlorine levels for a healthy and safe swimming environment. 3. Reduced Chemical Usage: Accurate measurements prevent overdosing or under-dosing of chemicals, saving you money and protecting your pool from damage. 4. By following these tips and regularly calibrating your pool testing equipment, you can ensure precise water chemistry measurements for a worry-free pool season. Additional Tips: 1. Purchase high-quality buffer solutions from a trusted source. 2. Store your buffers in a cool, dark place to prevent degradation. 3. Keep a log of your calibration dates and results for future reference.

The flow switch acts as a safety guard for your pool. It detects when water is flowing through the system and only allows adjustments when it's active. This prevents overdosing of chemicals if there's no flow, ensuring your pool stays safe and balanced even if the pump is temporarily turned off.

Salt electrolysis creates chlorine by passing electricity through salty pool water. For safety, this electrical circuit needs a proper grounding point to prevent any potential leaks or shocks. Earthing the pool water ensures this safe discharge path for any stray electrical current, protecting you and your equipment.
