SunnyWhale is making its CES debut this week, unveiling the FinWhale Robot Dispenser – a smart home solution that transforms pool ownership from a maintenance burden into pure family joy.
Imagine a pool that takes care of itself. No more weekend mornings testing water chemistry. No more urgent shocks when you return from vacation. No more worrying whether your children are swimming in safe water.
At CES 2026, SunnyWhale’s exhibition, themed “Less Maintenance, More Moments” features immersive demonstrations showing how the FinWhale works as the “guardian” of your pool’s water quality.
The FinWhale delivers fully automatic maintenance with continuous water testing and hands-free operation. Its AI-driven dosing algorithm prevents overuse, saves supplies, and maintains optimal 1-4ppm FC levels to prevent algae growth while ensuring safe swimming conditions. Pool owners can leave for a week’s vacation and return to crystal-clear water.
The product has energy-efficient design with solar charging, significantly reducing maintenance frequency and your involvement. Intelligent dosing helps maximise tablet efficiency, lowering costs and waste. The system checks pool conditions and provides alerts, supporting better water quality – particularly for sensitive skin.
Extensive testing across five diverse pool markets – Texas, California, Florida, Nevada, and Arizona – has validated the system’s reliability in various weather conditions, usage patterns, and maintenance challenges.
“The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive,” said a SunnyWhale spokesperson. “Users consistently recognise the value of fully automated maintenance that adapts to their specific environment.”
“We believe intelligent water quality self-maintenance represents an exciting new direction for pool care,” the spokesperson continued. “Traditionally, the pool industry has relied on manual labour and outsourced services, which can create barriers for some pool owners. With the FinWhale, we are offering pool owners a new choice – one that enhances collaboration with third-party maintenance services by providing real-time data and complete transparency, enabling both pool owners and maintenance professionals to work together more effectively. Our goal is simple: ‘less maintenance, more moments.’”
SunnyWhale hopes this approach will make pool ownership more accessible and enjoyable for families seeking a simpler, more automated solution.
