[Go flipr](https://www.goflipr.com) company sells smart pool monitor and management devices. The Flipr and Flipr Hub devices publish data to the cloud via Wi-Fi and SigFox.
This {% term integration %} gives you access on Home Assistant to the information measured by your Flipr with the same data as the vendor's smartphone application.
This {% term integration %} gives you also access to the Flipr Hub to control your pool equipments like pump, heater, light, etc.
There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:
- [Flipr](#flipr)
- [Hub](#hub)
## Prerequisites
You will need to use the standalone app for this device to register a username and password.
- [Google](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goflipr.flipr)
- [Apple](https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/flipr/id1225898851)
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
## Flipr
Flipr sends data like pH, chlorine or temperature to a cloud server on a regular basis in order to monitor your pool.
There is currently support for the following information within Home Assistant via **sensors** and **binary_sensors** :
## Entities
### Sensors
- **Chlorine**: the chlorine level
- **pH**: the pH level of the water
- **Water temperature**: the temperature of the water
- **Red OX**: the redox level of the water in mV
- **Last measure date**: the date of the last measure taken by the flipr
- **Battery level**: the battery level of the flipr in percentage
### Binary sensors
- **pH Status**: an indicator if the pH level is normal, too low, or too high
- **Chlorine status**: an indicator if the chlorine level is normal, too low, or too high
## Hub
The Hub lets you handle your equipment (pump, heater, light, etc.) from Home Assistant and all of the automation you can imagine.
- **Turn on/off** the switch inside the Hub and automatically set the Hub in manual mode.
- **Choose** the mode of the Hub between auto, planning and manual.
## Actions
The cloud data is polled every 15 minutes. If you want to force a refresh of the data, you can use the `homeassistant.update_entity` action.
## Tips
It is recommended that you create your own card with the following sensors where \[fliprid\] is the id of your flipr:
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_chlorine`
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_ph`
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_red_ox`
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_water_temp`
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_last_measured`
- `sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_battery_level`
Leave `binary_sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_ph_status` and `binary_sensor.flipr_[fliprid]_chlorine_status` as badges.
