AutoPilot manufactures leading saltwater pool chlorine generators, as well as precision environmental controllers and CO2 monitors for indoor gardening.
AutoPilot represents a prominent name across two distinct specialized industries. Primarily known as AquaCal AutoPilot, Inc., the brand has been a leading manufacturer of swimming pool salt chlorine generators since 1976. Their industry-leading saltwater pool systems, such as the ChlorSync and PoolSync controllers, turn ordinary salt into a self-regenerating supply of pure chlorine for clean and luxuriously soft pool water.
Additionally, the Autopilot brand name under Hydrofarm encompasses professional-grade environmental controllers used in indoor agriculture and hydroponics. Products like their digital CO2 monitors, thermostats, and lighting converters provide growers with precision automation to optimize plant growth environments. Whether you are automating a large commercial greenhouse or regulating your home pool's chemistry, AutoPilot devices deliver efficiency, connectivity, and reliability.
