Technology & Solutions
Innovation is at the core of what we do. From advanced automation systems to acrylic panels and movable pool floors, we bring deep expertise in engineering these technologies and integrating them into complex aquatic environments. Our role is to understand how each system works, how it needs to be designed, and how to make it perform reliably within your project.
Stainless Steel Vessels
Durable, elegant, and adaptable, stainless steel pools and spas are engineered for precision and longevity. Resistant to corrosion and structural fatigue, they offer a lightweight, watertight solution ideal for rooftops, interiors, and high-performance applications.
Acrylic Panels & Floors
We specialize in the integration of clear acrylic walls, windows, and floors that redefine the boundaries of aquatic design. Each element is structurally engineered to deliver uncompromising strength, visual clarity, and seamless transparency that turns water into architecture.
Movable Pool Floors
Our state-of-the-art movable floors transform any pool into a multi-use space. With the touch of a button, the floor rises or lowers to adjust depth, create a solid surface, or reveal hidden features—perfect for luxury residences, wellness centers, and hospitality spaces.
Advanced Filtration & Circulation
We design and engineer the mechanical systems that power every aquatic installation, from circulation and filtration to heating, cooling, and chemical management. Every system is sized, specified, and coordinated for the unique demands of your project, ensuring reliable performance and efficient operation from day one.
Automated Floating Pool Covers
We integrate automated floating pool cover systems that protect your investment without compromising the design. Using UV-rated slats that float directly on the water surface, these trackless systems provide safety, heat retention, and water conservation while remaining virtually invisible when retracted.
our work
Baker Residence
The Parkland Residence features a 100-foot-long resort-style pool designed to match the scale of the expansive estate. Our team provided full design, engineering, and construction administration services—delivering a high-performance aquatic environment that balances luxury with functionality.
Berman Residence
This backyard renovation transformed two disconnected levels into one cohesive contemporary outdoor space. A modern black-finished pool, improved circulation, continuous turf, and integrated seating connect the landscape seamlessly with the renovated home.
Moeller Residence
This one-of-a-kind pool was engineered to accommodate both swimmers and the client’s Lamborghini. Vehicle dimensions, loads, ramp geometry, drainage, and materials were precisely coordinated so the car can safely enter and exit the pool without compromising performance.
Mykonos Residence
This iconic Mykonos-style residence was rebalanced for modern outdoor living with expanded deck space, improved circulation, and a resort-inspired sun shelf. The redesign preserves its Mediterranean character while making the pool environment more functional and inviting.
Lot 10 SW Ranches Residence
Sector: Residential
Location: SW Ranches, FL
Year: 2023

Siesta Key Residence
This Siesta Key pool was rebuilt within an existing elevated concrete vault, using structural foam to reduce weight and precise 3D coordination to fit fixed conditions. An integrated underwater acrylic viewing panel creates a striking visual connection between the pool and residence.
Tarpon Isle Residence
Set on Palm Beach’s only private island, this residence features a 100+ foot knife-edge pool, spa, and cold plunge. Custom tile, precise detailing, and coastal engineering create a refined aquatic environment tailored to the scale and exclusivity of Tarpon Isle.

Technology & Solutions FAQs
Still have questions? Read All FAQs
What makes Smart Aquatics’ technology different from standard pool systems?
Can your technologies be integrated into existing pools or features?
Yes. Our engineering team frequently retrofits advanced systems like acrylic panels, automation controls, or improved filtration into existing builds, modernizing them without compromising their original design.
How do movable pool floors work?
Are your stainless steel and acrylic structures safe and durable?
Yes. These systems are rigorously engineered and validated through detailed structural analysis, including methods such as finite element analysis (FEA) and are tested in collaboration with specialized manufacturers prior to installation. Stainless steel and acrylic are alternative construction technologies, each with distinct advantages and considerations, and are selected based on project-specific performance, structural, and design requirements rather than as one-size-fits-all solutions.
Do your systems require special maintenance or training?
