ABSTRACT:
An automatic water regulator apparatus for automatically filling a swimming pool or comparable body of water when the water level is below a predetermined threshold. The water regulator apparatus can be added to any existing built in swimming pool equipped with a skimmer and a water fill line. The water regulator apparatus automatically senses the water level of the swimming pool, establishes if the level is within the allowable range, causes the pool water fill line to turn on if below the allowable range, and subsequently shuts off when the desired water level has been reached. The water regulator apparatus comprises a transmitter assembly and a receiver assembly. The transmitter assembly includes a water level detector which periodically automatically monitors the water level within the pool. If the water level is below a specified threshold, the transmitter assembly sends a radio transmission to be received by the receiver assembly. When the receiver assembly receives the radio transmission, it causes a water fill valve to automatically turn on a water supply to the pool, thereby filling the swimming pool. As the swimming pool is filling, the water level detector monitors the water level until the water level has reached a specified threshold. Once the specified threshold has been reached, the transmitter assembly sends a radio transmission to be received by the receiving assembly. When the receiving assembly receives the radio transmission, it causes the water fill valve to automatically turn off the water supply to the pool.
