Pool heating made so much easier.

I used to walk outside to manually adjust my heater all the time. Now I can set the exact temperature from my phone. The install was straightforward, and the app control works perfectly. Total game-changer for convenience.

Works great with my gas heater.

I was worried about compatibility, but the Lumi Heater Controller hooked up with my existing heater with no problem. Took my installer about 30 minutes. The app took a little time to get used to, but now I love being able to heat the pool before I get home.

Smart, reliable, and installer-approved.

I’ve installed a couple of these now for clients, and they’ve all been happy. Solid build quality, clear instructions, and it connects to Wi-Fi without headaches. A great addition to any modern pool setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lumi Heater Controller FAQS

  • What does the Lumi Heater Controller do?

    The Lumi Heater Controller manages your pool or spa heater with precision. It monitors water input/output and ambient air temperatures, displays readings in °C or °F, and allows you to control heating through the Illuminex mobile app. 

  • Which heaters is it compatible with?

    It works with major brands such as Jandy, Hayward, Pentair, and Raypak, using a dry contact switch for safe integration. 

  • Can I install the Lumi Heater Controller myself?

    No. Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in compliance with local electrical codes to avoid safety risks and to maintain warranty coverage. 

  • Does the controller require a special power supply?

    Yes. It operates on a standard 110–120V AC grounded outlet with GFCI protection. Extension cords or power strips should not be used. 

  • What should I do if the controller disconnects from Wi-Fi?

    The Wi-Fi icon will blink to indicate disconnection. Ensure the router is within range, reset the Wi-Fi on the device, and check that your network is stable. 

  • Where should the sensors be installed?

    • Water Temp In: On the inlet pipe before the heater.
    • Water Temp Out: On the outlet pipe after the heater.
    • Air Temp: In a shaded, open area near the pool (not in direct sunlight). 
  • How do I connect the Lumi Heater Controller to Wi-Fi?

    Download the Illuminex App, enable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your phone, ensure you’re on a 2.4GHz network, and press the Wi-Fi reset button on the controller to enter pairing mode. Then follow the app prompts. 

  • Can I share access with family or a pool service company?

    Yes. The Illuminex App allows you to share device control with other users. 

  • How do I set the desired pool temperature?

    Use the temperature slider in the app to set a value between 1°C and 40°C. In AUTO mode, the controller will heat water until this target is reached. 

  • What do the status indicators mean?

    • OFF: Heater disabled but still monitoring.
    • AUTO/Standby: System on, no heating required.
    • Flame: Heater on, actively heating. 
  • Can I view historical temperature data?

    Yes. The app displays line graphs of water input, water output, and air temperature, with day, month, and year views. 

  • The heater isn’t turning on. What should I check?

    Ensure the dry contact wiring is correct, the heater is in external control mode, and that your set temperature is above current water temperature. 

  • The temperature readings seem inaccurate. How do I fix this?

    Verify sensor placement, secure them firmly, avoid direct sunlight, and recalibrate if needed. 

  • The app won’t pair with the device.

    Restart your phone and the controller, ensure Bluetooth is enabled, and stay within Wi-Fi range during setup. 

  • How should I maintain the Lumi Heater Controller?

    Clean sensors regularly, check wiring for corrosion, update firmware via the app, and wipe the controller with a soft, damp cloth (no harsh cleaners). 

  • What is the warranty period?

    The Lumi Heater Controller comes with a 1-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. 

  • What is not covered under warranty?

    Damage from improper installation, misuse, natural disasters, normal wear and tear, or unauthorized repairs is excluded. 

  • How do I make a warranty claim?

    Contact Illuminex customer service with proof of purchase. If valid, the unit will be repaired or replaced.
