42. A mountable automatic system for monitoring chemistry information for a body of water and introducing chemicals into the body of water, the system comprising:
-
a. a pump system for collecting a sample of the body of water;
b. a sensor coupled to the pump system for determining chemistry information based on the sample;
c. a microprocessor coupled to the sensor and configured for processing chemistry information, the microprocessor further comprising an instruction that instructs the microprocessor to compare a programmable threshold of chemistry information to chemistry information collected from the sample;
d. a chemical storage unit coupled to the pump system and the microprocessor and configured to release a chemical into the body of water upon command;
e. a safety element coupled to one of the microprocessor and the sensor, the safety element configured for indicating when the body of water is unsafe; and
f. a mountable housing coupled to at least one of the pump system, the sensor, the microprocessor, the chemical storage unit and the safety element, wherein the microprocessor signals the safety element to alert when the body of water is unsafe once the programmable threshold has been met. - View Dependent Claims (43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50)
