The battery-powered and solar-charged Keto Smart Skimmer, from Keto A.I., Inc., of Houston, Tex., replaces an existing cover plate with a smart plugand- play device that connects directly to WiFi, and is configured with Bluetooth for direct communication with a phone.
The Smart Skimmer keeps track of sanitizer through an ORP sensor that measures chlorine performance and pH levels; its fixed position allows it to monitor water level and detect if the pump is running, water is low or the skimmer basket needs to be or has been cleaned.
It works in both salt and chlorine pools.
Users can receive notifications as water fluctuates out of range and be informed of water temperature as well as local weather to know when conditions are best for swimming.
The pool’s current status can be determined at any time by stepping on the skimmer’s solar panel for an LED reading.
Charging occurs automatically by leaving the skimmer installed in the sun.
The Smart Skimmer will fit over 90 percent of pools with the three included adapter collars. Installation is easy, with no tools required.
Keto A.I. products are designed and built in the U.S.
