pHin Smart Water Monitor ($349 US MSRP)

pHin Smart Water Monitor

This holiday season, families are planning to gather around fireplaces, trees and decorations… and their pools and hot tubs? For the friends and families whose backyard oasis you love to frequent, give the gift of simplified water care!

Both pool veterans and new owners will love the pHin Smart Water Monitor. pHin makes water care and maintenance easy so they can spend more time relaxing, and less time worrying about testing, measuring, and chemicals.

Here’s how it works: pHin measures the water more than humanly possible. It floats in the water 24/7, and measures pH, sanitizer, and temperature more than 1,000 times per week. pHin will quickly become pool owners’ favorite gadget because they can let pHin guide them to perfect water balance. They’ll get alerts in the app or via email the moment their water is unbalanced and unsafe. pHin doesn’t leave them hanging – it’ll calculate the exact amount of chemicals they need to add to get the water safe and balanced again, with whichever chemical brand they choose.

Whether they have a saltwater, chlorine, or bromine pool or hot tub, pHin makes it easy to prepare for a family pool day or a night of hot tub relaxation to make sure the water is balanced and safe.

Now with built-in voice integration, pHin users can “Ask Alexa” if the water is safe, or for the temperature of their water instead of running outside in the cold to check it. Give pHin this year, and your family and friends will be thankful all pool-season-long.
