Types of Swimming Pool Cleaners

Today swimming pool cleaners come in many varying shapes and sizes. A pool cleaner can hover around the bottom of your pool and or skim the top of the surface of the pool.

You can buy pool cleaners that clean the pool automatically, although the cost is considerably higher compared to the manual cleaners. The time you want to spend cleaning your pool will determine which type you want to buy. Some pool owners prefer to clean the pool manually; it gives them time to be alone and reflect. Being around water can have a calming effect.  The automatic pool cleaner is a device that leapt right into the hearts of pool owners and service technicians alike.

These are described below and are broken into three categories; suction side, pressure side and cleaners and robots.

Suction side cleaners are the most common type of cleaner found in American pools today.

Pressure side cleaners: Pressure side cleaners work because of water pressure. A pressure-type cleaner will use a replaceable filter bag that traps the dirt and pollutants.

Robotic cleaners:  Robotic cleaners need to be plugged into an electrical outlet (also known as electric cleaners). They have a self-contained pump and filter system, and normally trap dirt with an internal filter.
