In 1990, SBCS created the CHEMCOM^® system, the first remote-monitoring system designed for swimming pools and spas, which was first installed in the pool network of the Chicago Parks Department. This system has evolved over the years to an advanced web-based system with secure data-server access that has been a model within the industry.

In 1996, the company introduced the PC Programmable Controller. This was the first fully integrated controller, combining in a single unit all controls for chemical automation, water balance, filter back-washing and heating. The success of this unit has led to the development of our line of fully programmable and integrated controllers.

In 2003, the company added a new PPM SENSOR, the first with a selective membrane for direct readings of Free Chlorine in water without interference from cyanurates or oxidizers.

Throughout these years, a global demand for similar capabilities in chemical automation in other sectors have led to CHEMTROL^® installations across a broad range of applications, including but not limited to: cooling towers and boilers, municipal and industrial waste water and agriculture. SBCS has over 100,000 CHEMTROL^® controllers installed globally across this wide range of applications. We have always placed a strong emphasis on product reliability, ease of use and friendly and expert customer service, including toll-free technical support for dealers and pool operators. In addition to our Competitive features and pricing, our sales and support team works closely with architects and engineers, during their planning of projects, to provide bid-specs and ensure that their chemical-automation needs can be met.

All of our controllers are covered by a five-year electronics warranty and are supported by the network of CHEMTROL^® Qualified Dealers in the U.S. and other countries.

SBCS proudly remains a US-based company, with its entire team based in California. All of our products are designed and fully assembled in the US, with an emphasis on US-sourced parts.
