METHODS AND SYSTEMS OPTIMIZING SWIMMING POOL OPERATIONS BY UTILIZING OCCUPANCY DETECTION DEVICE

Patent Granted This invention brings the awareness of a presence of a person, animal, pool cleaner, object to the pool automation system, the chemical treatment device and the SVRS system (safety vacuum release system) to coordinate safety, control, performance, efficiency and convenience to the users. Occupancy status of the pool and the additional sensors data are used to adjust and optimize the pump speed and the run schedule of the pool pump controller or automation system as well as to adjust the chemical treatment schedule of the pool and the amount of chemicals used to clean the pool water and by doing so optimizing the pool chemicals use and the timing of the use. The occupancy detector device(s), as a mesh network or a wireless star network, can communicate to the automation system, the chemical treatment device and the mobile devices via commonly used communication methods. The invention can be integrated into the entire ecosystem of pool devices independent of the manufacturers, any type of network and cloud connectivity. The invention applies to commercial and residential pool systems.
