Davey Lifeguard Pool Chlorination and Chemistry Control System

At a Glance

The Davey Lifeguard is Davey's complete pool chlorination and chemistry control system for New Zealand pools, one step up from the Nipper salt chlorinator with WiFi app control, automatic pH and ORP dosing and salt measurement built in. It suits in ground and above ground residential pools up to 140,000L, and the model you need is decided by your pool's volume and salt level.

Ideal for

• Pool owners who want water balanced automatically instead of testing and dosing by hand
• In ground and above ground residential swimming pools up to 140,000L
• Normal salt pools (3000 to 6000ppm) on the C models, or low salt pools (1500 to 6000ppm) on the CLS models
• Anyone running a variable speed pump or heat pump who wants one controller running the pump, the heating and the pool's chemistry

What's in the Box

The Lifeguard controller, acid dosing pump kit, pH probe, ORP probe, salt and temperature probe, probe and injection point housing, antenna, connection cables, calibration solutions and the chlorinator cell for your chosen model. A registered plumber makes the pool return line connection.

Why We Like It

Lifeguard is Davey's full automation tier, not just a Nipper with an app bolted on. The pH sensor and acid dosing, ORP control and salt measurement mean you stop testing water by hand and stop guessing dosing, and the heat pump and variable speed pump integration means one controller runs the lot. It costs more than a Nipper on its own, and that is the point, you are buying the automation as well as the chlorinator.

Warranty & Support

3 years on the control box and cell, 1 year on accessories, 6 months on probes. Plumbed into your pool return line, so a registered plumber should make the connection. Questions? Call 07 863 8064, real people, Waihi and Kopu stores, Mon to Fri.
