What cOnnect Adds to EcO Start Salt
EcO Start Salt works via Bluetooth when you are near your pool. The Connect pack adds cOnnect, which allows your analyzer to send data through your home Wi-Fi.
In practice, this means you can check your salt pool from work, during a weekend away, on holiday or from a second home. You no longer need to be next to the pool to see whether your water is balanced.
cOnnect is especially useful when you want to react before a small imbalance becomes a bigger water problem. You receive your readings and alerts in the iopool app, even when your phone is not physically close to the pool.
To work correctly, cOnnect must be installed in an area covered by your home Wi-Fi and within approximately 15 m / 50 ft of the pool.
Who Is This Pack Made For?
Choose EcO Start Salt + Connect if you own a salt pool and want to monitor it remotely.
This pack is ideal if:
you are often away from home during the day;
you travel regularly during pool season;
your pool is located at a holiday home or second residence;
you want to check your water before guests arrive;
you prefer automatic updates instead of only checking your pool when you are nearby.
If you mainly use your pool when you are at home and do not need remote access, EcO Start Salt may be enough. If remote monitoring matters to you, EcO Start Salt + Connect is the better choice.
