Robotic Pool Cleaners

A good filtration system isn’t the only key to keeping your pool water pristine; an automatic pool cleaner removes a great deal of debris from your pool’s floor and some from your pool walls as well.

There are currently four kinds of automatic pool cleaners on the Australian market; suction, robotic, in-floor and pressure cleaners.

How Robotic Pool Cleaners Works?

The new generation robotic pool cleaners are gaining popularity with time-poor homeowners who want to spend the day enjoying their pool instead of vacuuming! Robotic cleaners vacuum and trap pool debris in self-contained compartments or bags. This technique saves you from having to do excessive backwashing or rinsing the pool’s filter, which is the case with suction style cleaners.

Robotic cleaners are not connected to anything, and some have remote controls to control the cleaner’s movements or to program the cleaner for specific cleaning functions. You can automatically and systematically clean your swimming pool without relying on the operation of filtering equipment. The result is a dramatic reduction in energy costs when compared to all other types of automatic pool cleaners
