When the flow stops, your household shouldn't have to.
Municipal water interruptions arent measured in hours. In 2026, Johannesburg households have experienced water outages lasting up to four weeks.
Traditional backup systems add another tank, more infrastructure and more maintenance. Prolonged water storage can also raise water-quality concerns if not properly managed.

What happens when the water stops?
PoolUp uses the water already in your pool to provide a filtered backup supply to your home when municipal water isn't available.

Never miss a hot shower.
PoolUp continuously monitors incoming municipal water pressure. A drop below the configured threshold activates PoolUp automatically, drawing from your pool reserve, filtering the water and maintaining delivery pressure throughout your home.
From reserve to running water.
PoolUp moves your existing pool water through pumping, three-stage filtration and pressure management. Suspended particles, chlorine and selected unwanted compounds are progressively reduced before the water enters your home's backup plumbing supply.
