Equipment & automation upgrades

The cheapest pool to buy is often the most expensive to run. Swapping an old single-speed pump and manual chlorination for efficient, automated plant can pay for itself in power and chemicals, and it makes the pool easier to live with. We quote the upgrade with the running-cost saving spelled out.

Equipment & automation upgrades by Aqualine Pools
Scope

What this job includes.

  • Variable-speed pumps that run for a fraction of the power
  • Salt, mineral and automated sanitising systems for steadier water
  • Solar, heat-pump and gas heating, sized to how you actually swim
  • App-based automation for pumps, lights, heating and cleaning
Our system: We size equipment to your pool and your habits, not to the biggest invoice. The quote names each unit, its warranty and the running cost it saves.
How we quote it

One fixed price, every cost named.

Before you sign, the ground, the access and the fencing line are surveyed and priced. No provisional sums, no guesses left to settle later. The price that starts your build is the price that finishes it.

The 7-line quote
  1. 1 The site survey, costed. Soil and rock tested, fall and access measured, fencing line set. The ground conditions that blow other quotes out are priced here, not discovered mid-dig.
  2. 2 The pool, specified by name. Shell type, dimensions, depth, interior finish (the exact pebble or tile range), coping and waterline, all named. No "or similar".
  3. 3 Plant, fencing and compliance. Pump, filtration, sanitiser and the certified fence and barrier, listed as line items. Compliance certification is in the price, not a surprise at handover.
  4. 4 One fixed price, and the build program. A single contract price with no provisional sums, beside a dated build program. The number that starts the build is the number that finishes it.
If a quote doesn’t show these lines, you can’t compare it, and you don’t know what’s been cut.
How it runs

What happens, step by step.

1

Talk through the backyard

Tell us the space, the look and the budget. We talk straight about what fits and what it really costs before anyone visits.

2

Site survey and soil test

We test the ground, measure fall and access, and set the fencing line. This is where the costs that ambush other builds get found and priced.

3

One fixed-price proposal

Every line specified and named, a single contract price with no provisional sums, beside a dated build program.

4

Build, certify, hand over

Our own crew across every stage, the barrier certified, the plant commissioned, and a handover walk-through before the first swim.

Insured, covered, guaranteed

The paperwork behind the price.

Public liability to $20M, and a 10-year structural warranty, all in writing, all on request.

Every build is carried out under our QBCC licence, the licence required to build a pool in Queensland, and our public liability cover. The shell we pour carries a written 10-year structural warranty, so if the structure we built fails, we come back and put it right. Ask us for the licence number and the cover, and check them yourself before you pay a deposit.

The cover, the guarantee, and how to check each one.
Questions, answered

Equipment & automation upgrades: common questions.

Will a variable-speed pump really save money?
On most pools, noticeably. Run on a low speed for longer rather than full speed in short bursts, a variable-speed pump uses a fraction of the energy of an old single-speed unit. We show you the estimated saving before you commit.
Can you automate an older pool?
In most cases yes. Modern automation retrofits to existing plumbing and equipment, so you can control pumps, heating, lights and cleaning from your phone without rebuilding the whole system.
