S.P.A.C.E. — Sensing Platform for Automation, Control & Execution

Pool energy savings start with a measurable site assessment

S.P.A.C.E. connects sensors, machines, inverters, PLCs and actuators. Together with Aqutron Vision, it relates plant behavior to occupancy, schedules and actual use of the facility.

It senses physical conditions and acts only within authorized rules. The project first establishes a consumption baseline, then tests where operations can be optimized while keeping water and air quality, hygiene, comfort and safety within agreed limits.

Potential in suitable facilities

Up to 70%

A site-specific range is estimated from the baseline; measured results are verified in the pilot. It is not a guaranteed result.

Where the assessment looks for savings

A pool rarely wastes energy in one place. The study connects operating data with actual demand to identify the changes worth testing.

Circulation and filtration

Compare pump speeds, filtration cycles and operating schedules with actual pool use and the limits defined for water quality.

Heating, ventilation and dehumidification

Examine how thermal and environmental systems respond to occupancy, opening hours and changing conditions.

Schedules and real demand

Identify equipment that continues to run at fixed settings when areas are closed, lightly used or seasonally inactive.

Anomalies and maintenance

Highlight consumption outside the expected profile and recurring conditions that may justify a technical inspection.

What is needed for a useful first analysis

The review can begin with the information already available. Missing measurements are identified before any integration is proposed.

  • Available bills, consumption histories and tariff structure
  • Plant diagrams, equipment list and existing control systems
  • Opening hours, occupancy patterns and use of individual areas
  • Water and environmental targets, operating rules and mandatory limits
  • Known anomalies, planned upgrades and maintenance constraints

From baseline to a verified decision

The process separates estimated potential from measured results, so management knows what was tested and under which conditions.

  1. 01

    Preliminary review

    We examine available data, technical scope and the decisions the facility wants to improve.

  2. 02

    Baseline and opportunity map

    We define reference consumption, assumptions, missing signals and the areas with the strongest measurable potential.

  3. 03

    Pilot with operating limits

    S.P.A.C.E. monitors the agreed systems and applies only authorized actions, with interlocks, fallback and traceability.

  4. 04

    Measurement and next-step decision

    Results are compared with the baseline and acceptance criteria before any wider rollout is considered.

What the facility receives

The output is a decision package, not a generic savings promise.

  • Documented baseline, scope and calculation assumptions
  • Prioritized opportunities with an expected range
  • Integration plan, authorized controls and safe operating limits
  • Pilot measurement method and acceptance criteria
  • Results report with the recommended next phase

Designed for facilities with different operating models

The technical method stays measurable, while the priorities change with the facility.

Public and sports pools

Evidence for technical teams, management and procurement, with operating limits and responsibilities made explicit.

Hotels and resorts

Assess efficiency while protecting guest comfort, variable occupancy needs and service quality.

Fitness, wellness and multi-site operators

Compare recurring patterns, standardize useful indicators and prioritize sites with the clearest opportunity.

Start with the data your pool already has

Share the facility type, main equipment and available consumption data. We will clarify what can be assessed immediately and what still needs to be measured.
