OK if you would prefer to work out the specs on the group here that's
fine too - I'd still be glad to buy the system from you if you can help
me to select them.

It seems to me even as a fairly technolog-addicted person, there is a
huge world out there of home automation components but the details can
get hard to integrate with something as mission-critical as a pool.  If
you had to work at integrating a pool in Florida (as a vendor yourself
no less) then the odds of my finding someone with such experience for a
year-round Pennsylvania pool are pretty small.
