Pool automation and control installation and retrofits in Tempe, AZ from Nevergreen Pools: Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy panels, sensors, and app control.

Pool Automation & Control in Tempe, AZ | Nevergreen Pools

Nevergreen Pools handles pool automation & control in Tempe, installing and retrofitting systems that run pumps, heaters, lights, valves, and water features from one panel or an app, wiring the sensors and communication lines that connect them, and setting up the programming so a homeowner is not flipping switches at the pad by hand.

Call us if you already reset the panel or swapped the transformer and the pump still will not follow its schedule, if the app shows a device running but nothing changes at the pad, if the salt cell throws an error the panel will not clear, if the heater will not hold the temperature set from the app or the panel, if a valve actuator is stuck and you are switching between pool and spa by hand at the pad, if the panel drops its Wi-Fi connection every few days and needs a manual reboot, or if the pH or ORP reading on the panel has stopped matching a test strip.

We serve Tempe in partnership with Beyond Pool Cleaning, a pool service company based nearby. Call to get a technician scheduled, or book your first visit online.

How We Install and Retrofit Automation

The first visit starts with a walk of the equipment pad to see what is already there and what the panel will need to control. Most pads on these homes are still running single-speed pumps and sand or DE filters that are near the end of their life, tied into older skimmers and main drains on a plaster pool that has been replastered once or twice. Before any panel goes in, we check whether the existing wiring, breakers, and valves can carry an automation load, since retrofitting a panel onto a pad built in the 1960s through 1980s is its own job and not just a box swap. Where the wiring will not support it, we run new low-voltage and communication lines from the pad to the panel location rather than trying to make old wire do a job it was not built for.

For a new install we run a Pentair IntelliCenter or EasyTouch, a Hayward OmniLogic or OmniHub, or a Jandy iAquaLink, matched to what is already on the pad or to what the homeowner wants to control from an app. We wire the panel to the pump, heater, lights, and valve actuators, and set up pH and ORP sensing where the homeowner wants automatic chemical feed instead of hand dosing with test strips. Hard tap water scales heaters and salt cells fast here, so we build cleaning and flush cycles for the cell into the schedule from the start instead of leaving it running until output drops and it fails.

  • Program filtration, cleaning, and spa schedules around actual bather use rather than a factory default cycle
  • Wire and configure valve actuators for pool and spa switching and any water features on the pad
  • Set up pH and ORP sensing and dosing where the pad has the equipment to support it
  • Connect heater control so setpoints and run times are managed from the panel or the app
  • Test the panel's Wi-Fi and app connection at the pad before calling the job done

Once everything is wired, we commission the system on site instead of handing over a manual and leaving. That means running the pump, heater, lights, and valves through the app while standing at the pad, checking that each schedule actually holds and that the sensor readings match a manual water test. We walk the homeowner through the app, show how to override a schedule for a party or a service visit, and set the defaults we know hold up on a pool sitting through summer highs of 105 to 115 degrees, where evaporation runs heavy and chlorine burns off within hours without enough stabilizer in the water.

What a Properly Automated Pool Looks Like

With automation working the way it should, the pump ramps up and down on its own schedule, the heater holds its setpoint without a second call, the salt cell keeps producing chlorine without a manual reset, and valves switch between pool and spa without anyone touching the pad. A homeowner or a property manager checks the app instead of driving out to the pool, which matters on rentals and investment properties in Tempe where nobody is on site to catch a problem between tenants. The panel also gives us a record to check against when something does go wrong, instead of guessing at what changed since the last visit.

Left alone, an automation system that has drifted out of its programming does more harm than having no automation at all, because the app still shows everything as normal while the pool is not being maintained. A schedule that does not account for monsoon dust storms from July through September leaves a pool running dirty for days before anyone notices the filter pressure climbing. A heater that will not hold a setpoint keeps cycling and burning gas without actually heating the water. A salt cell throwing an uncleared error stops producing chlorine while the app still reports the system as running, and stabilizer burns off in the summer heat long before anyone checks a test strip by hand. Palm, citrus, and mesquite debris falling into a pool that nobody is watching in person just adds to the load a neglected system has to fight.

Call us to get the pad and the panel looked at, or schedule an automation install or retrofit online.

Thank you Nevergreen for freeing me of all the worries of my pool so that I may come home from work and enjoy it rather than perform maintenance.

Standard pool service can be like visiting the dentist for a cleaning- necessary, but not exciting. It isn't until you find someone who truly cares about their craft that you realize how different it can be. Our pool isn't just clean, it sparkles. Recommendations for improvements are made, but not pushed. Service is consistent and my needs are considered proactively. Kyle's attention to every detail demonstrates the difference between a pool company that is focused on churning pools vs. the concierge service that comes from an owner who takes pride in their results. Highly recommend.

This was the third time we have had them come out to keep our filter running. This time we were under the impression that we were going to need to replace the pump for almost $4000. When Nathan came out, instead of just blindly changing it, he pointed out some minor things that needed to be done and only charged the diagnostic fee. We have had Kiani (on the spelling) and now Nathan out, and both have provided excellent service. Highly recommend this company!

Keoni came on time and was very professional. He was super knowledgeable about every piece of the equipment as well as the iAquaLink app. He not only got my system running, but helped me adjust the parameters to save money on electricity. He pointed out what issues might arrive in the near future and without trying to upsell just let me know what to keep an eye out for. I already have pool cleaning services, but will absolutely use Nevergreen pools for all my pool repair needs.

Jeff has great work ethic & most pleasant demeanor which is reflected in how the pool looks when he's done. I try to fill in between his visits but he makes that task minimal. We've been pool owners for almost 50 years, the first half of that time I managed the pool condition, the second half we've had it professionally done & Nevergreen offers the best service in this experience. The after-service email photo say it all & a nice touch.
