If you have a pool, you understand the tedious process of vacuuming and cleaning it. It’s really back-breaking work and takes up much of the time you should have spent doing something more productive. Amazingly, homeowners are more likely to spend money on strangers than robotic pool cleaners when the benefits far outweigh the cost of having a person manually cleaning their pools. Maybe it has something to do with the natural suspicion of people with machines.

1. Are Robotic Pool Cleaners Safe?
If you have a pool, you understand the tedious process of vacuuming and cleaning it. It’s really back-
breaking work and takes up much of the time you should have spent doing something more productive.
Amazingly, homeowners are more likely to spend money on strangers than robotic pool cleaners when
the benefits far outweigh the cost of having a person manually cleaning their pools. Maybe it has
something to do with the natural suspicion of people with machines.
Safe, efficient and cheap
Those three words immediately jump out of the page when you are a pool owner. Fortunately, they
remain true with all robotic pool cleaners. They are remarkably safe because they run on low-voltage
electricity. That also means low energy consumption allowing you to save on electricity bills. With their
built-in filtration system, you don’t need to use the pool’s natural filtration. You don’t need to pay a robot
per hour’s rate that you pay a worker. Just compute the cost per hour of the pool cleaner’s wages and
compare that to robotic pool cleaners and you can immediately estimate the amount of savings. Plus,
these robots don’t get hungry or thirsty and you can leave them in peace without worrying that a stranger
is also cleaning out your house for valuables.
Three types of pool cleaners
These robots come in three kinds: pressure side cleaners, electric pool cleaners and suction side
cleaners. The pressure side cleaners clean the pool by using booster pump mechanism to suck larger
debris, although they tend to miss out on smaller rubbish. Suction side cleaners can suck smaller specks
through its filters while the electric cleaners are powered by powerful motors and are very efficient on the
pool floor and walls. Because they run on artificial intelligence, these robotic pool cleaners are more
costly.
Tips for safe use of robotic pool cleaners
Although they are already very safe, you can maximize the use of your machines by the following steps:
examine the head float of the machine to see if it’s intact. A cracked head float can collect a lot of water
which can damage the robot. Check the wheel which can cause the robot to move randomly around your
pool. Test the suction if its’ functioning properly. A lot of debris or particles can be left behind in your pool
with a damaged suction. Lastly, look at the cleaner bags of the robotic pool cleaners because if they are
already full, they can leave behind a trace of rubbish on your pool.
