2Automated swimming pool water quality monitoringSwimming pool automation is a process of automatically monitoring and then adjusting the sanitizers, pH levels and temperatures of swimming pool to maintain high-quality water. The electronic automation has several advantages which include enhanced safety and health, convenience and low costs of chemical and repair (Standards New Zealand 2008). The automation program can monitor the different conditions such as the measures pH, chlorine and temperature of the water and then trigger a correction when the values are below or above the required values. Physical, chemical and biological contaminants are able to find their way into the pool while under usage. The automation of the pool is able to monitor the chemical and biological contaminants in the water (White 2010). Maintaining high quality of water in the pool is important, and the automation system is installed to ensure that the different water components. When the sensors sense an action required, they send an alarm or communication and then trigger the necessary response. Figure 1: An automatic quality monitoring swimming pool system

3The Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government, through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is responsible for providing the provisions of the pH levels, chlorine level and water temperatures for the swimming pools. pH control is essential for the swimming pool. The changes in the pH can be experienced any minute in the pool and therefore having an automatic monitoring system is crucial (Soltermann 2015 and Koprowski et al. 2013). The pH changes are able to affect other system parameters including the chlorine level. The allowable pH values of swimming pool range between 7.2 and 7.8. Drops of the pH level to a level of up to8 makes the chlorine lose about 80% of the sanitizing power. Automation of the swimming pool uses digital microprocessors. These microprocessors are able to automatically test and adjust the water chemistry to the required levels (Pool water treatment advisory group 2009). A digital controller of pH and chlorine level is usually installed. The system is able to detect when the pH needs to be increased meaning the water is acidic and when it needs to be brought down when the water is essential. The automatic swimming pool monitoring system of the pH has two critical compartments with different ingredients used to raise or decrease the pH level. NaHCO3 addition is used to increase the pH level of the pool while HCL is used to reduce the level when it’s high (Witelson 2014 and Buszewski, Ligor & Ulanowska 2016). The system automatically detects when the pH changes and releases the required parameter to control the effect. The base and acid feeders release the required parameters according to the sensor. In this automatic system, the sensors detect the pH value of the water, and then a message is triggered to the controller, which triggers the release of the specifically required parameter. The controller times the necessary amount of parameter and releases the required quantity of a parameter.
