Reliable and time-saving

Depending on the size and usage of the pool, backwashing the filter unit can be carried out manually. Alternatively, you can leave this necessity to the reliable and time-saving BADU OmniTronic. The BADU Omni actuator was adapted for the remote control via smart home control, as with the BADU Genio.

For the factory-set operating mode “interval automatic”, the first backwash must be triggered by pressing the button. This will then be repeated automatically every seven days. Regular filter operation is started daily at the same time. The alternative operating mode “time controlled automatic” offers the possibility of setting individual times for all operating conditions.

Input is carried out by self-explanatory buttons and a full text display in the backlit display. 11 languages are available for the menu guide. Safeguarding against wrong entries avoids time overlaps being saved for the filter times. All saved parameter remains unchanged following a power cut.

The BADU Omni actuator doesn’t have input tools on the device. It was developed especially for convenient operation via external controls. Various settings can be made regardless of time and location, for example using the BADU Genio app on the smartphone, tablet or PC.

Compared with other backwash valves, the 6-way valve from BADU offers two additional positions with “circulate” and “off”. Thus, the valve can be sealed when the pipework is released. For pools with an overflow gutter, the automatic system ensures that the floor drain is opened during backwashing and rinsing (additional circuit board).

Variable speed pumps and single-phase pumps up to 4 amps can be connected directly to the backwash valves. The electronics can be upgraded for the operation of larger single-phase pumps.

Further functions such as filter controls and level controls can be integrated via free inputs and outputs or an enabling contact can be integrated for a metering device. A pressure switch can also be integrated. A backwash is spontaneously triggered if the filter is especially dirty. From 2019, the BADU OmniTronic also offers the possibility of mapping controls for heating, solar units, frost protection and refrigeration.

The automatic backwash system’s terminal box offers room for all additional necessary components. If the 6-way valve is to be built into a difficult to reach space, the control’s circuit board can be removed and assembled in an optional wall housing at a suitable location.

SPECK Pumpen is introducing a smart home control for private swimming pools to the market. The BADU Genio allows the genius yet simple operation and regulation of various pool functions and parameter via smartphone, tablet and PC.

Regardless of where the pool owner is, he can use the BADU Genio to maintain control of the swimming pool technology and water quality without entering the engineering room. An app, which can be installed on various devices, allows access to the functions of an indoor or outdoor swimming pool. Thus you have the filtration, backwashing, water treatment, temperature adjustments and attractions conveniently under control at all times.

SPECK Pumpen has been producing pumps for over 100 years. The company has been active in the private swimming pool industry for more than 50 years. As market leader for swimming pool pumps, the pump manufacturer and the BADU trademark stand above all for quality and innovative product development. in June 2018, the company was honoured with the Top 100 for its innovative strength.

The newest product development is the BADU Genio. A smart home control for all functions and parameter of private indoor and outdoor pools. The app allows the pool owner remote access to his swimming pool technology via smartphone, tablet and PC, regardless of time and location. The BADU Genio enables direct control of all filter pumps in the BADU GREEN range. Control of the filter pump and the specially developed BADU actuator can be carried out both fully automatically with the integrated time programme or manually.

Treatment of the swimming pool water is also carried out easily with the BADU Genio. It contols the dosage of chlorine and pH minus/plus. Integrated dosing time monitoring avoids uncontrolled dosing. The owner receives a warning when the canister is empty in order to order replenishments in time.

In order to be an innovative smart home control, the BADU Genio enables a range of further control possibilities. The temperature of the swimming pool water can be adjusted conveniently as you wish with the connection of the solar, water or heat transfer pump. Freely definable outputs for pool attractions such as pool lighting or a swimming pool cover can also be controlled.

The BADU Genio is simple to operate and offers the pool owner a clearly understandable full text display with a multilingual menu. The application will continue to be refined and new possibilities will be adapted step by step. The parameter set remain unchanged during power cuts. Swimming pool technology controls have never been simpler and more genius.

The developers responsible for the BADU Genio were driven by one simple idea: providing the pool owner with as much time in the pool as possible. With the genius smart home control for private swimming pools, the pool maintenance requirements are flexible with regard to both time and space. The time spent in the engineering room is thus considerably reduced.

Our new advertising campaign with Stella Rouge starts next week, coinciding with the start of the Aquanale in Cologne.

The new developments in the BADU product family are the focus of the campaign, which was devised and implemented in cooperation with the agency Longo Communication GmbH. It consists of several images portraying the tradition and style of the BADU premium product range through well-known motifs, replacing certain aspects with BADU new developments in order to highlight the quality and high value of the BADU product range.

You will come across the images everywhere … from our internet presence and product advertisements to our trade fair stand and promotional gifts. Visit our trade fair stand at the Aquanale in Cologne where you can not only experience the new campaign live, but you can also meet our elegant Stella Rouge. Look out for our new 2018 SPECK calendars too!

Stella Rouge had the great task of modelling our pumps: “The photo shooting took place over three days in August. Seeing as I was playing many different roles, it was very fast paced and I was constantly running between the set and the dressing room. Being able to play so many different roles was so much fun! The four-man team behind the scenes took great care of me too,” she summarised. “I worked with the best models too!”
