Pool Technology and Automation For Your Backyard

Modern pool technology takes that guesswork off your plate. With a smart automation system, your pump, heater, lights, water features, and sanitizer all run on a schedule you set once.

At Tranquility Pools, we design and install pool technology and automation for new builds and retrofit it into existing pools throughout Central Pennsylvania. Whether you’re planning a full backyard transformation or just tired of babysitting equipment you installed a decade ago, we’ll help you build a setup that fits how you actually use your pool.

Trusted Pool Automation Systems

A pool automation system is the brain of your backyard. A central control unit ties into your equipment pad and takes over the jobs you’ve been doing by hand; starting and stopping the pump, opening and closing valve actuators, calling for heat, running the sanitizer, and switching lights and water features on and off. You reach it from a wall-mounted panel, a weatherproof keypad near the pool, or an app on your phone from anywhere you happen to be.

The real advantage is scheduling. Instead of controlling one piece of equipment at a time, you build scenes that fire together: a filtration cycle that runs during off-peak hours, an “evening swim” setting that warms the water and dims the lights to a color you like, a party mode that brings up the waterfall and the fire bowls at once. Set it once and your pool runs itself all season.

These systems scale to the pool and the budget:

Entry-level control handles the essentials; pump scheduling, heater setpoints, and lighting; and is often the single biggest quality-of-life upgrade for an older pool.
Mid-tier systems add valve actuation for pool-and-spa spillovers, multiple water features, and freeze protection that safeguards your plumbing during Pennsylvania cold snaps.
Full integration brings in landscape lighting, audio, fire features, chemistry monitoring, and covers, all under one interface.

A system is only as good as the equipment underneath it, which is why we specify the controls and the hardware together; pump, filter, heater, and sanitizer sized for your gallonage and plumbing so nothing works against anything else. Contact us today to learn more.

Our pool tech services include:

Smart automation control systems– Manage lighting, temperature, pumps, water features, and music from a wall panel, a poolside keypad, or an app on your phone.

Color LED pool and landscape lighting– Set the mood for a quiet evening swim or a backyard party, with scenes you can trigger in one tap.
Heaters and heat pumps– Extend your Pennsylvania swim season well into the shoulder months, with remote scheduling so the water is ready when you are.
Saltwater chlorine generators– Softer-feeling water, fewer chemical runs, and consistent sanitizing without daily attention.
Automated water chemistry monitoring– Sensors track and help maintain balanced water, so you spend less time testing and more time swimming.
Water feature and fire feature controls– Waterfalls, deck jets, bubblers, and fire bowls integrated into the same system as everything else.
Robotic cleaners and automatic covers– Hands-off cleaning and one-touch covering for safety, heat retention, and cleaner water.
Automation retrofits for existing pools– Already have a pool you love? In many cases we can bring modern controls to it without starting over.
