Abstract: A heater for a pool or a spa is provided. The heater is provided in the form of a housing with an outlet disposed in the housing. The outlet is in fluid communication with the pool or spa. The heater also includes a first dosing mechanism that is designed to meter an amount of a waste condensate generated by the heater to the pool or spa. The waste condensate, by virtue of being imparted with an acidic pH, alters the pH value of water in the pool or spa. The heater is also in electrical communication with a controller. The controller is designed to control the first dosing mechanism such that the first dosing mechanism can provide at least a portion of the waste condensate to the pool or spa.

Abstract: A device and method of predicting the failure of a heat exchanger of a heating device for a pool or spa are provided. The method comprises providing a measurement device to determine a baseline concentration of a metal within the water of the pool or the spa at a first time. The method further comprises measuring a concentration of the metal via the measurement device at a second time to define a measured concentration and determine if the measured concentration is greater than the baseline concentration. The method also comprises providing an alert when the measured concentration exceeds the baseline concentration by more than a predetermined amount. The metal detected by the measurement device may be at least one of copper, stainless steel, or titanium.

Abstract: An apparatus for delivering a plurality of pool chemicals is provided. The apparatus comprises a housing including at least one dispensing area. The apparatus also includes a measurement device in communication with the housing that is designed to detect a concentration of a substance in a water sample. A controller is adapted to provide a signal to the housing to dispense a pool chemical from the plurality of pool chemicals if the controller determines that the concentration of the substance is outside of a predefined range.
