Pool Automation Repair & Installation
Pool automation lets you control your equipment from one system. When it fails, pumps, heaters, and lights stop working together.
WaterTex Pools provides pool automation repair and installation across Dallas–Fort Worth. We work on automation systems from Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy.
With 22 years of equipment repair experience, we handle both new installs and system repairs.
If your controller will not respond, connect to WiFi, or control equipment correctly, service is needed.
What Is Pool Automation?
Pool automation uses a central controller to run your equipment. The system connects pumps, heaters, lights, valves, and salt systems.
A typical automation setup includes:
- A control panel or touchscreen
- Relays that turn equipment on and off
- Valve actuators that move water flow
- Sensors for temperature and system status
Most systems allow control from a phone or tablet. Schedules reduce manual operation and keep equipment running on set times.
Pool Automation Repair Services
Automation systems fail from age, weather, and electrical issues. We diagnose the cause before replacing parts.
Common problems we fix:
- Control panel not responding
- App or WiFi connection failure
- Valve actuators not turning
- Temperature or sensor errors
- Wiring and relay issues
- Software or firmware faults
Repairs focus on restoring control without replacing the entire system.
