Professional Pool Service
Pool automation and control installation in Granite Bay, CA. Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy systems programmed, wired, and commissioned by Nevergreen Pools.
Nevergreen Pools handles pool automation & control in Granite Bay, installing and programming the systems that run pumps, heaters, lights, valves, and water features from one schedule or app, including the pH and ORP sensors that adjust chemistry without someone testing the water by hand every day.
Call us if you're still walking out to the equipment pad every night to switch the pump speed by hand, if the spa only turns on by opening a valve at the pad instead of a button on the wall or your phone, if the touchpad or app has stopped talking to the equipment and you're running everything on manual override, if the heater won't hold a set temperature without you adjusting it each time you use the pool, if the pump still runs at one fixed speed and you can hear that it was never upgraded, if the schedule drops out and the lights, water feature, or spa jets turn on at the wrong times or not at all, or if oak leaves and acorns are clogging a skimmer that used to clear itself on a timer.

Before any wiring goes in, we walk the equipment pad and inventory what's already there: pump type, whether it's single speed or variable speed, the heater's age and condition, and whether the existing valves are manual or already actuated. Many pools on these lots were built in the 1980s through the early 2000s and carry an aging heater or a touchpad that was replaced once but never tied to a variable-speed pump, so the inventory also tells us what has to be upgraded alongside the controller, not just swapped for it. Pools with an attached spa, a raised wall water feature, or an in-floor cleaning system add valves and actuators to that list, and each one needs its own wiring run back to the pad.
On a retrofit, most of the job is wiring, not the panel itself. Equipment pads on these lots usually sit well away from the house, often behind a raised wall or past a water feature, so running new low-voltage and communication cable, Cat5 or RS485 depending on the system, back to the pad is the bulk of the work. We install a Pentair IntelliCenter, Hayward OmniLogic, or Jandy iAquaLink panel depending on what's already in place or what the owner wants to control from, wire in the pump, heater, lights, and each valve actuator, and add the pH and ORP sensor on the plumbing after the filter and ahead of the heater, so the heater never sees acid-adjusted or chlorine-spiked water before it's had a chance to mix. Water in this area is soft and runs low on calcium and alkalinity, so having a sensor hold that balance automatically protects plaster and pebble finishes and the heater's exchanger from the swings that happen when dosing is left to a weekly test strip.
Once everything is wired and programmed, we run the system through a full cycle, filtration, spa, water feature, lights, and cleaning, before we leave, and watch the pad for anything that doesn't switch cleanly between modes. Then we walk the homeowner through the app: how to override a schedule for a party, how to boost the spa heater without changing the pool's program, and how to read an alert if a sensor or pump throws one. That training is part of the job, not an add-on, because an automation system only the technician can run isn't doing what it was installed to do.
Once the system is wired in and commissioned, the pool, spa, and any water feature run on their own schedule. A variable-speed pump pulls less power than the single-speed unit it replaced, and the pH and ORP sensors hold the water in the range that protects plaster or pebble finish and the heater's exchanger instead of letting this soft water drift. You stop walking out to the pad to flip a valve or adjust a speed by hand, and a schedule that used to depend on someone remembering it now runs whether anyone's home or not, through the heat of summer and the months oak leaves and acorns are dropping.
Left alone, the opposite happens. A single-speed pump left running all day costs more every month than the upgrade would. A heater without a working schedule gets cycled on and off by hand, which wears the exchanger faster than holding a steady set point would. Water left to drift without sensors etches plaster and pebble finish in this soft water, and a skimmer that depends on someone remembering to clear it during oak season backs up and strains the pump. Call Nevergreen Pools to get automation installed or an old system brought back online, or schedule your first visit.
