Overview

The OmniLogic is a pool automation system that connects the pool's pumps, heater, lighting, water and fire features, valves, and salt system into one coordinated whole, controlled from a smartphone app and a wall interface. It turns a pool from a set of separately operated machines into a single, manageable system.

Hayward designs the OmniLogic as a comprehensive flagship system, and on a Hayward equipment pad it integrates most cleanly, completing a single-brand, fully coordinated pool.

Who it is for

The OmniLogic is the natural choice for any owner whose pool is built around Hayward equipment. Automation is smoothest within one brand's ecosystem, and the OmniLogic is the system designed to control a Hayward pad, the pump, heater, salt, and lighting, as one coordinated pool.

It also suits any owner who wants comprehensive, app-based control of a smart pool. For a Hayward pool it is the obvious, best-fitting brain.

What it does well

The OmniLogic's strengths are comprehensive control and clean Hayward integration. It manages a full set of pool equipment and features, supports scenes and schedules so the pool largely runs itself, and is controlled from a capable app and wall interface.

On a Hayward pad the integration is seamless, the pump, heater, salt, and lighting all responding as one, and the system is backed by Hayward's wide parts and service network. It is a capable, well-supported automation brain for a Hayward-equipped pool.

What to know before buying

As with every automation system, ecosystem fit is the key consideration. The OmniLogic is at its best on a Hayward pad; its smoothest, deepest integration is with Hayward equipment. An owner whose pool is built around a different brand should weigh that and would likely be better served by that brand's automation system.

The OmniLogic is a flagship system and a significant investment, and it deserves professional installation and configuration. The value of automation comes not just from the hardware but from correct wiring and from programming the scenes and schedules around how the family actually uses the pool.
