Your pool stays.
Pool Buddy stays with it.
Permanent pools have their own equipment, larger water volumes and different seasonal jobs. Pool Buddy brings water care, equipment and recurring routines into one relevant profile.

One profile for the pool and equipment
Pool Buddy records the pool shape, dimensions or litres, plus construction, filter, pump, skimmer, water source and sanitiser. Dosing and diagnostics are based on your pool rather than a generic example.
Suitable for
- ✓In-ground or partly buried liner pools
- ✓Permanently installed steel-wall pools
- ✓Concrete, fibreglass and similar permanent pools
- ✓Round, oval and rectangular pool shapes
Equipment-aware care
More than pH and chlorine
Pump & circulation
Pool Buddy compares realistic flow with the water volume and identifies possible bottlenecks.
Skimmer & returns
Water level, surface cleaning and common skimmer problems are explained for the stored setup.
Readings & dosing
pH, chlorine, alkalinity, cyanuric acid and other readings are explained and calculated for your pool volume.
Water & equipment diagnostics
Green water, cloudiness, pressure or flow problems: only relevant causes and checks are shown.
History & reminders
Keep measurements and recurring tasks traceable throughout the season.
Clear next steps
Care without memorising the manual
Pool Buddy does more than display a number. It connects a reading and the equipment profile to a clear action, followed by suitable pump run time, waiting time and a follow-up measurement.
Everyday situations covered
- ✓Routine testing and maintenance
- ✓Heavy rain, hot weather or intensive use
- ✓Absence and return
- ✓Green, cloudy or unusual water
- ✓Filter and pump issues
Built to stay
Reopening and winter preparation
Guided checklists support reopening and winter preparation. For permanent pools, Pool Buddy covers water level, skimmers and returns, drained lines, frost-protected equipment and covers. Manufacturer and pool-professional instructions always take precedence.
