Pool route software helps a pool firm plan visits. It can set work, save client notes, and log each job.
Pool monitoring adds site data between visits. Amano runs liquid tests at set times. It does not take the place of a route app or pool tech.
Start with the job
| Job | Route software | Pool monitoring |
|---|---|---|
| Plan the day | Routes, stops, tasks, and work cards | Not its main job |
| Run the account | Client notes, job log, bills, and calls | May flag a read that needs a call |
| Know what took place | Pool tech notes and work done | Set pool reads between visits |
| Flag new work | Gives the work to a pool tech | May send the alert that starts a check |
| Treat the water | Logs the work | Does not take the place of checks, labels, or a pool tech |
Where Amano fits
Amano runs liquid tests at set times. It normally tests twice a day. You can change the plan. It tests free chlorine, combined chlorine, pH, and total alkalinity. It saves each test time. It can send an alert. Built-in cellular sends the data.
Keep your route app as the place for work. Use Amano to check its four pool reads. This is just a work flow. We do not claim the apps sync.
A simple two-system workflow
- Plan visits and tasks in your route app.
- Check set Amano tests with your own rules.
- Check an odd read with your hand test.
- Review the facts at the site.
- Add the task to the app your team uses.
- Log the owner, work, and next check.
Which tool should come first?
Do you miss stops or need help with bills and calls? Start with a route app.
Does the route run well, but lack new pool tests? Look at a pool monitor. Need both? Keep the two jobs clear as you shop.
Questions to ask each vendor
- What job can the tool do on its own?
- Where does each bit of data come from?
- What if a read or visit is missed?
- Who owns the check and next step?
- Does the tool plan work, test, feed, or just send a report?
- Which claims need a local rule or site fact?
