BUYING GUIDE
Owning a pool is a luxury, but keeping it clean can often feel like a chore. Debris, algae, and dirt can quickly accumulate, making your pool less inviting. Enter automatic pool cleaners, designed to maintain your pool’s cleanliness with minimal effort on your part. From robotic to suction-side and pressure-side cleaners, the options are numerous and can be a bit confusing. This guide will help you navigate through the sea of choices to find the best pool cleaner that suits your specific needs and keeps your pool sparkling clean.
1. Types of Pool Cleaners:
Know the main types — robotic, suction-side, and pressure-side. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, so you’ll need to decide which is most suitable for your pool.
2. Pool Size and Shape:
Some cleaners excel in larger pools, while others are better suited for smaller sizes or irregular shapes. Make sure to pick a cleaner that is designed for your specific pool dimensions.
3. Energy Efficiency:
Robotic cleaners are generally more energy-efficient but may have a higher upfront cost. Consider long-term energy savings when making your choice.
4. Debris Size:
If your pool often collects larger debris like leaves and twigs, you’ll need a cleaner with a larger debris bag and more powerful suction.
5. Surface Material:
Different cleaners are optimized for various surfaces like tile, concrete, or vinyl. Make sure the cleaner you choose is compatible with your pool’s surface material.
6. Navigation and Coverage:
Some cleaners come with smart navigation technologies that ensure complete pool coverage. This is especially useful for larger or irregularly shaped pools.
7. Cord Length and Hose:
Make sure the cleaner’s cord or hose is long enough to reach the furthest corner of your pool from the power source or connection point.
8. Speed and Efficiency:
Check how long it takes for the cleaner to complete a cycle. Faster isn’t always better if it sacrifices cleaning quality, so find a balance that works for you.
9. Durability and Build Quality:
Opt for models made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials to ensure that your investment stands the test of time.
10. User-Friendliness:
Some cleaners require manual installation of hoses or other accessories. If convenience is a priority, look for a plug-and-play model.
11. Remote Control and Automation:
Higher-end robotic models can be controlled via remote or even a smartphone app, allowing you to guide the cleaner to specific areas.
12. Warranty and Customer Support:
A long warranty period and responsive customer support can be a lifesaver if you encounter any issues with your pool cleaner.
13. Brand Reputation:
Trusted brands like Polaris, Dolphin, and Hayward have earned their reputation through performance and reliability. Consider sticking with well-known names in the industry.
14. Price:
Pool cleaners can vary significantly in price, from budget-friendly to premium. Set a budget that includes any additional accessories or features you may need.
15. Customer Reviews:
Read up on reviews to get real-world insights into the cleaner’s performance, reliability, and potential shortcomings.
By considering these factors, you’ll be able to make a well-informed decision that aligns with your pool’s requirements and your personal preferences. Here’s to a cleaner, clearer pool and more time to enjoy it!
