Answer a few plain-English questions, or ask your own ("what's sodium bicarbonate for?") — it fills out the calculator below for you as you go.
Tell the Coach above about your pool, or fill in the essentials here — everything else below is optional and gets a sensible default until it's set.
Tell the Coach above (or send it a photo of a spec plate) and this fills in automatically — or enter any of it yourself below.
Want the exact minute-by-minute program for your specific controller model?
Generated from your setup above — this changes based on your sanitizer and filter type.
Enter what your test strip or kit says. Rules-based pool chemistry math computes the dose; a rotating pool of AI models explains it in plain language and flags anything tied back to your filtration schedule.
Free shows today's read. Subscription logs every test, tracks trends over the season, and ties chemistry swings (like an algae bloom) back into an updated pump schedule automatically.
See the Subscription tier →Same active ingredient as the pool-brand version, priced fairly — generic bulk chemicals, sourced through drop-ship suppliers, modest markup instead of specialty-label pricing.
Fulfilled by drop-ship suppliers, not SimplerPool directly — prices shown are estimates. We only suggest a recurring subscription for things people actually run out of; one-time-per-season items stay one-time.
Invite technicians to share this route's pool roster — they sign in with their own email, no separate accounts to manage.
Heavy rain dilutes your chemistry. Heat spikes chlorine demand and algae risk. This checks your forecast against your last test and today's setup, so you catch it before it becomes a problem — the same idea a good pool tech uses when they glance at the sky. Subscription feature.
