Abstract
A pool system includes a water sensing device. The water sensing device may locally control a pH of a sensing region of the water sensing device including water of a pool or spa. Additionally, or alternatively, the water sensing device may electrochemically sense free chlorine in the sensing region after locally controlling the pH of the sensing region.
Claims20
A pool system comprising a water sensing device configured to:
- (i) locally control a pH of a sensing region of the water sensing device including water of a pool or spa;
- and
- (ii) electrochemically sense free chlorine in the sensing region after locally controlling the pH of the sensing region.
A method comprising:
- locally controlling a pH of a sensing region of a water sensing device with water of a pool or spa;
- electrochemically detecting free chlorine in the sensing region after locally controlling the pH of the sensing region;
- and
- generating an output response based on the detected free chlorine.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising a plurality of instructions executable by one or more processors, the plurality of instructions comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform actions including:
- obtaining a free chlorine measurement using a water sensing device by
- i. locally controlling a pH of a sensing region of the water sensing device with water of a pool or spa;
- and
- ii. electrochemically detecting free chlorine in the sensing region after locally controlling the pH of the sensing region;
- and
- generating an output response based on the detected free chlorine.
