Managing pool heating is a nightmare

If you manage vacation rentals with pools, you know these problems all too well.

Guests run heaters 24/7

Guests crank up the heat and leave it running for their entire stay—costing you $30-50+ per week in energy.

$100+wasted per property/month

Hours of manual checking

Logging into 10+ different pool apps every day to check temperatures and turn off heaters wastes man hours every day.

5+ hrswasted per day

You eat the cost

When guests blast the heater or it is left on between stays, there's no way to recover those costs. It comes straight out of your margin.

“Before PoolPilot, I was spending hours every week logging into different pool apps only to have heaters left on and pools not warmed in time for guests. Now everything is automated and our heating revenue has increased. It's been a game changer.”

“The ROI was immediate. First month we recovered over $2,000 in heating costs that we used to just eat. The pools take care of themselves now. I don't know how we used to operate without PoolPilot.”

Frequently asked questions

Which pool systems do you support?

We currently support iAqualink, Pentair systems, and Hayward OmniLogic. If you have a different system, reach out—we're always adding new integrations.

How does guest payment work?

When a guest wants to heat the pool, they visit a simple payment page (linked from your guest guide). They pay via Stripe, and the funds go directly to your connected Stripe account. You set the pricing. We also have options to import paid pool heating from your PMS.

What if a guest doesn't pay?

No payment, no heating. PoolPilot blocks heater access until payment is received. Guests can still use the pool—they just can't turn on the heater without paying.

How long does setup take?

Most managers are up and running after a short onboarding call. Connect your PMS, add your pool system credentials, configure your pricing, and you're done.

What PMS platforms do you integrate with?

We integrate with Guesty, Hostaway, Hosftully, Track, Streamline and several other platforms. We're adding new integrations regularly—contact us if you use something else.

What about technical issues with the pool systems?

We have advanced analytics monitoring the pool/spa heaters in the background. If something looks unusual, you will receive a notification so you can inform your pool man.
