Powering Smart Pools with IoT

The HVAC industry, including specialized solutions like pool heat pumps, is rapidly evolving with the integration of IoT technology. As demand grows for energy-efficient, connected devices, companies are turning to IoT for remote monitoring and predictive maintenance, enhancing both cost-efficiency and customer satisfaction. However, challenges such as ensuring reliable, scalable connectivity and managing devices globally persist. Key IoT trends like edge computing and data analytics now enable precise control and optimization of HVAC systems.

Background

Ingeli SARL, based near Lyon, France, develops customizable, ready-to-use IoT solutions for various industrial applications. Their platform, Ingelink, supports IoT-enabled devices, allowing them to optimize maintenance and reduce after-sales issues. Ingeli integrated 4G connectivity into their heat pumps to streamline remote maintenance.

Challenge

While heat pumps effectively regulate pool temperatures, maintaining them across different regions presents a challenge. Ingeli needed a cost-effective solution for global scalability that could enable remote monitoring and diagnostics, reducing maintenance costs and improving customer satisfaction.

1NCE Solution

1NCE's IoT Lifetime Flat model allowed Ingeli to bundle connectivity with hardware as a single upfront cost. The company now conducts seamless operations, allowing over 90% of the users to connect through 4G instead of Wi-Fi. Today, 15,000 of their customers use 1NCE for reliable connectivity.
