Remote notification of a power outage is provided automatically via the network battery backup (upon power loss) and/or via the pool systems automation dashboard computer (upon power return). All notifications require presence of an internet connection, either via the primary route or via the backup route (cellular modem, where applicable).

All notifications are sent by default to the Building & Grounds email account.

Sump Pumps

During a prolonged power outage, backup power will need to be provided to keep the sump pumps operating. This is particularly important in the pump house which is prone to flood within hours of power loss. Legacy foundation drain tiles in the club house may provide sufficient drainage, though sump pump operation is preferred.

Refrigeration

During the operating season, it is critical to provide backup power quickly in the event of a prolonged power outage. Otherwise, significant loss may be incurred as saleable product melts or warms to unsafe temperatures. The chest freezers in the basement hold temperature quite well. The units in the snack shack are prone to warm much quicker.
