Henden Control App: Take a look inside

If you’ve ever wondered what full pool automation actually looks like in real life — the Henden Control app makes it possible.

The Henden Control app gives you complete control over your pool equipment, heating, lighting, water features and valves directly from your phone. Whether you’re at home, at work or away on holidays, everything runs from one smart interface.

Here’s exactly what you can do inside the Henden Control app.


The Henden Control App Dashboard: Total Pool Visibility

When you open the Henden Control app, you instantly see:

  • Current pool temperature
  • Heating status
  • Pump operation
  • Chlorination status
  • Active schedules
  • Lighting state

Everything is live. Everything is adjustable.

You’re no longer guessing whether the heater is running. You’re not walking outside to check the pump. It’s all visible in one place.


Heating Control Features in the Henden Control App

You can:

  • Turn heating on or off instantly
  • Set a target temperature
  • Create heating schedules
  • Control solar, electric or gas heaters
  • Activate spa heating separately

Instead of wasting energy, you control exactly when and how your pool heats.

This alone can dramatically reduce heating costs.

Lighting Control: Mood at the Tap of a Button

With compatible LED lighting connected, you can:

  • Turn lights on/off
  • Change colours
  • Set timers
  • Schedule evening lighting automatically

Whether it’s family swimming or entertaining guests, your lighting becomes programmable — not manual.

Automatic Valve Control (The Real Game Changer)

This is where most pools upgrade from “basic automation” to true smart control.

By installing actuator valves, you can automate:

  • Water features
  • Deck jets
  • Spa mode
  • Swim jets
  • Solar changeover
  • Cleaner lines

Instead of manually turning plumbing valves, the system switches modes electronically.

Tap “Spa Mode” in the app — and the valves rotate automatically.

No more bending over equipment pads.

Henden Balance integrated into smart pool systems for precise chemical contro

Henden Balance Integration (Smart Water Chemistry)

When paired with Henden Balance, you can:

  • Monitor water chemistry
  • View pH levels
  • Track sanitizer levels
  • See dosing activity
  • Get alerts

This reduces guesswork and improves water clarity.

You’re no longer reacting to green water. You’re preventing it.
