The system turns on when the temp drops below 32, but I guess I'll need to add pipe heaters to the mix for Alabama's next ice apocalypse.
Thanks to Indigo I only lost about an inch of water in the pool instead of 18,000 gallons if I hadn't been monitoring and controlling it. Thanks Matt and Jay!! Also thanks to Nick for the awesome Sonos plugin - now with mp3 announcements!! There's a donation coming your way as soon as I get through a divorce and this mess!

That's great.
Can you share the devices and logic within indigo that you used?
I have the great Autelis plugin, but use it only for control purposes (heaters, etc.) but don't see an obvious way to detect problems or implement safeguards.
Thanks,
