Swimsuit season is a lot closer than you think. Instead of worrying about how to conceal your problem areas, you can easily conquer another type of problem: pool control.

Zodiac Pool Systems just announced the iAquaLink, a new app for pools and in-ground spas. The free app works with any HTML5-capable smartphone or tablet, as well as any legacy pool control systems from Jandy or Zodiac.

The end result allows pool owners to use those smart devices to monitor, adjust, and program AquaLink pool controllers. That way, you can turn on the heater or the cleaner as you drive home. All you need to do is have swimwear on under your work clothes for an instant dip!

Of course, it works on hot tubs as well, with programming options available for pumps, cleaners, lighting, waterfalls, temperature control and monitoring, and more. If you have a pool at a second home, that can also be added under one app for control from one interface.

If you don’t have an automated pool control system, Zodiac has two bundled kits available: the complete AquaLink RS system and the iAquaLink Web Connect Device.
