Launch Pricing: $100 setup + $15/month per pool

Pool heat that follows your bookings.

HostHeat connects your existing pool heater to your reservation calendar — lowering the temperature when the pool sits vacant and warming it back up before the next guest arrives.

Save money on gas between stays, see every pool at a glance, and (optionally) let guests pay to upgrade the temperature.

The problem

Heating empty pools is expensive — and forgetting to heat them costs reviews.

Heating an empty pool between stays

Forgetting to heat the pool before check-in

Manually adjusting temps around every reservation

No visibility when a heater is struggling

Guests leaving spa, lights, or waterfalls on

Too many guest messages about pool temperature

HostHeat automates pool heat around your reservation calendar — so heaters run when guests need them and rest when they don't.

How it works

How HostHeat Works

Plug into the heater and calendar you already have. We handle the rest.

01

Connect Your Pool Heater

Works with your existing iAquaLink, ScreenLogic, or compatible automation system — no new hardware required.

02

Sync Your Booking Calendar

Connect an iCal feed or your PMS so HostHeat knows when each pool is occupied, vacant, or has a guest arriving.

03

Heat Follows the Schedule

Pools drop to eco temp when vacant and warm back up before each check-in. You see savings and pool status at a glance.

04

Optional: Guest Upgrades

If you want, let guests pay online to upgrade the temperature beyond your default — Stripe, Venmo, or Zelle.

Benefits

Built for vacation rental pool operations

Save Money on Gas

Drop pools to an eco temperature whenever they're vacant. See dollars saved each month on your dashboard.

Heat Follows Your Bookings

Sync iCal or your PMS once and HostHeat schedules pre-arrival warm-ups and post-checkout cooldowns automatically.

Catch Heater Problems Early

See every pool at a glance. Get alerts when a heater runs for hours without reaching set temp.

Optional Guest Upsell

If you want to charge for premium temperatures, let guests pay online — Stripe, Venmo, or Zelle. Skip it entirely if you don't.

HostHeat is currently built for hosts who already have compatible pool automation equipment installed.

Calendar-driven
