Future Swim Transitions from Blue Eye to Chemtrol PC2100

Client: Future Swim Kirrawee  – NSW, Australia
Contact: Andy Vu, Facility Manager
System Installed: Chemtrol PC2100 Controller

Background

Future Swim Kirrawee is a boutique swim school known for its small class sizes, personalised instruction, and family-focused environment. Their philosophy is to ensure every child progresses safely and confidently while enjoying high-quality facilities.

Water quality is a top priority, tested every 3 hours to meet or exceed NSW Health guidelines. The pool is maintained at a comfortable year-round temperature of 32–33°C, creating the perfect environment for children to learn and thrive.

Challenge

Future Swim had previously relied on a Blue Eye control system, which involved recurring reagent costs of approx. $450/month. In addition to high costs, the system demanded regular attention and raised reliability concerns.

The management wanted:

• Lower operating costs
• Consistent, accurate water chemistry control
• A future-proof system with remote monitoring and proven reliability

Solution

Future Swim replaced their Blue Eye system with the Chemtrol PC2100 controller, which offers advanced sensor technology and reagent-free monitoring.

Key Benefits Delivered by Chemtrol:

✔ Massive Cost Savings – No expensive monthly reagents. Annual maintenance costs are minimal, saving thousands of dollars per year.
✔ Accuracy & Safety – Built-in safeguards prevent overdosing, while calibration is only needed occasionally.
✔ Remote Access – True duplex communication allows staff to monitor and adjust pool chemistry anytime, from anywhere, with no subscription fees.
✔ Automated Balance – pH, ORP, ppm, TDS, temperature, and heater management with automatic Langelier Saturation Index adjustment.
✔ Reliability & Warranty – Rugged design with a 5-year electronics warranty, providing long-term peace of mind.

What has changed since installing Chemtrol?
“Peace of mind. We no longer second-guess our water chemistry. Everything is automated, accurate, and easy to check remotely.”

What do you value most about the PC2100?
“The Chemtrol Remote monitoring is a game-changer. I can check the pool anytime without leaving home. And unlike Blue Eye, there are no monthly subscription or reagent costs.”

How has this helped reassure parents?
“Parents love knowing their kids are swimming in the cleanest, safest water possible. We tell them about the upgrade—it shows we truly care about their children’s health.”

Would you recommend Chemtrol?
“Absolutely. If you want reliability, safety, and peace of mind, Chemtrol is unmatched.”

For Future Swim, choosing Chemtrol over Blue Eye was not just a technical upgrade – it was a business decision that paid for itself quickly.
The school now enjoys safer water, lower costs, and happier families.

By investing in Chemtrol, Future Swim reinforces its reputation as a swim school that doesn’t compromise on safety, care, or quality.
