## Resource

Brian Van Bower sits down with Alvaro Mendoza, Founder & Executive Chairman of Aquafinity, to explore the evolution of pool technology and the growing role of remote monitoring in both commercial and residential settings. Drawing on over 45 years of experience, Alvaro shares how Aquafinity has expanded from municipal pool chemistry control into advanced systems that monitor and manage everything from pH and chlorine levels to water usage and equipment performance. The conversation highlights how real-time alerts, automation, and data-driven insights are helping pool professionals and homeowners proactively address issues, improve efficiency, and maintain better control, especially for remote or part-time property owners.
