Bodies of water

Pool, spa and fountain on one account.

Each body of water keeps its own size, sanitizer and readings. A client with a pool and a spa is one stop, two logs. A spa only shows spa chemicals.

  • Separate log per body, same stop
  • Last visit's readings beside today's, per body
  • 2 bodies per client on Starter, 5 on Pro, unlimited on Business
Cost

Chemical spend you can see by client.

Price each chemical once. Every dose a tech logs carries its cost, so the chemical spend chart on the dashboard is real, and the report on Pro breaks it out by chemical and by client, with a filter per tech.

  • Spend by client, so you know which pools eat the margin
  • Spend by tech, so you see who is heavy-handed
  • Restocks logged against the truck on Business

On the record

Logs that cannot be deleted.

A chemical log is a business record. In Orbit it cannot be removed, by anyone, on any plan. The tech can fix a typo for a week; after that only the office can touch it, and on Business every change lands in the audit log.

  • Permanent history per body of water
  • No delete, for any role
  • Monthly chemical report per client as a PDF

Also on the water side.

Filter cleans that come due

Set the interval per pool. The clean comes due on the route on its own and the tech logs it at the stop.

Ideal range on every scale

The tech sees the ideal band and last visit's number while logging today's.

Chemical report per client

A month of readings and doses as a PDF for the client file or the homeowner.

Truck stock

Doses count down what is on the truck. A reorder list when it runs low. Business plan.

Free calculators

LSI and dosing calculators on this site, no account needed. They are tools, not advice the app gives the tech.

Last visit next to this one

The tech sees the previous reading on the scale while logging today's.
