Pools

Every building contains one or more pools. For each pool you determine which parameters are measured and how. That configuration directly drives what users see on the entry screen.

Managing pools

Open a building and go to Pools. You see all the pools in that building and can create, edit, reorder and delete them.

Creating a pool

Click Add pool to open the form. Give the pool a name and save. You then configure the parameters to measure.

Configuring parameters

For each pool you determine which parameters are measured — such as free chlorine, combined chlorine, pH, water and air temperature or clarity. For each parameter you choose:

• whether the parameter is on for this pool;
• whether it is recorded manually or automatically;
• whether it is required when submitting;
• the data type and the order in which parameters appear.

The thresholds these parameters are checked against are set under Thresholds.

Bath type and use

The form has two separate fields. Use is picked from a list, such as Competition or Therapy, and describes what the pool is used for. Bath type is the type of bath as stated in your environmental permit.

You choose from six bath types: indoor pool, outdoor pool, therapy pool, hot whirlpool, plunge pool and natural pool. If you leave the field on Not set, the pool stays without a bath type.

If you choose Therapy for the use and the bath type is empty, a hint offers to select therapy pool. Nothing is ever set automatically. A one-time notice asks Admins to set the bath type of every pool; you can close it. After saving a new bath type, you can set the pool's thresholds to the legal limits.
