How this automation works

Automate your smart pool maintenance by linking Blue Connect and Hubitat. This Applet runs whenever a new water measurement from your connected swimming pool is available, triggering a Hubitat device to close automatically. It's ideal for pool owners who want to streamline monitoring and control of smart home devices connected to their pool environment.
