## What is Aquavail?

Know exactly what to add to your water, every time. Set up your hot tub, pool, swim spa, or cold plunge with your exact specs, and Aquavail turns each test into step-by-step dosing built for your setup.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Enter your test strip readings using simple tap controls
2. Report your water condition: clarity, foam, smell, color, deposits
3. Get step-by-step dosing calculated for your exact setup

SMART CHEMISTRY
Every recommendation is tailored to your sanitizer type. Chlorine, bromine, salt systems, mineral cartridges, ozone, and UV systems each get the right products, amounts, and targets. The app detects conflicting readings, flags high sanitizer levels before you soak, identifies chloramine buildup, and recommends oxidation instead of piling on more chemicals when your sanitizer is already adequate.

SEQUENCED ACTIONS WITH TIMING
Recommendations appear in the right order (alkalinity before pH, salt before chlorine) with explicit wait callouts between chemicals so you know when to add the next one and when to keep jets running. Steps that can be added together are flagged so you don't waste time waiting between independent doses.

WATER STATUS AT A GLANCE
Each test gets a clear status (Balanced, Fair, Adjust, or Urgent) based on both your chemical readings and water condition. One dangerous reading or severe water issue is enough to flag it, so nothing slips through.

PHOSPHATE TESTING
High phosphates silently consume your sanitizer and cause stubborn cloudy water. Aquavail supports phosphate testing (0-2500 ppb) and recommends treatment when levels exceed the 125 ppb threshold, a reading most apps ignore entirely.

DRAIN AND FIRST-FILL GUIDANCE
Track your drain schedule based on tub type, volume, and bather load. When it's time to refill, get pre-drain prep tips tailored to your tub type plus approximate first-fill chemistry that adjusts for your fill water source. City, well, softened, and RO water each get different baseline assumptions, so the dose recommendations match what you're actually starting from.

AI-POWERED INSIGHTS (PRO)
Aquavail Pro builds on your last test. It knows what was recommended, what improved, and what still needs attention. Get smarter, contextual recommendations every time, plus history trend analysis that spots patterns across weeks of data. AI is optional. Toggle it off in Settings any time. One-time lifetime purchase, no subscriptions. Includes Family Sharing.
