We recently moved. Our old place had a Jandy Aqualink RS with a PoolPilot Digital DIG-220 and Aquacal Heat Pump that I was able to control locally, without the cloud, using AqualinkD open source software and Home Assistant. It worked extremely well despite the Jandy being a bit of a PITA to deal with due do its proprietary nature. I could control the pool instantly through my phone and even set up alerts if, say, the pool pump was still running when we went to bed.
Our new place has a pool with an old school pump timer with no pins it it. You basically let it run day and night or you open the box and hit a breaker. So the system needs some upgrading lol.
Which modern controller(s) and SWGs would you all recommend that have open interfaces, can be controlled locally, and integrate with one another and Home Assistant? Or should I just try to replicate my old Jandy setup?
