Different Types Of Pool Vacuums

There is nothing like jumping into a cool swimming pool in the middle of a hot summer day. The water is refreshing and clear and the sun is warm. But what if it were a really hot summer day and when you wanted to jump into that swimming pool you soon realize that’s it’s riddled with dirt and debris. It doesn’t make the pool very appealing now does it? That’s the one great thing about automatic pool cleaners, you can turn them on and leave them in and they will keep your water and the bottom of your swimming pool very clean. Now if this sounds like something you’d be interested in, then it would be wise to find out the different kinds of best pool cleaners on the market and make your decision based on what you’ve learned. Most people don’t even know that there are different types of pool vacuums to choose from. You can get an automatic pool vacuum or you can use a manual vacuum to clean your pool whenever you want. Of course it’s very easy to just buy an automatic pool vacuum and use that to keep your pool clean cause you don’t have to worry about it once you introduce it to your swimming pool.

Suction Side Pool Vacuum

There are three types of automatic pool vacuums that you can choose from. The first is called a suction side pool vacuum. The suction side pool vacuum uses the power of, you guessed it, suction to remove dirt and debris off the bottom of your swimming pool. It uses the water pulling power of your swimming pool pump and filter to create a siphon of water lifting dirt off the bottom of your pool.

Pressure Side Pool Vacuum

Another type of automatic pool vacuum is the pressure side cleaner. A pressure side pool vacuum uses water pressure to push dirt and debris off the bottom of your swimming pool and into a mesh bag or skimmer net. It does not use your filter to clean the water, a pressure side vacuum is all self-contained with a little help from your swimming pool pump.

Robotic Pool Vacuum

And last but not least is robotic pool cleaners. This is the most expensive but most effective pool cleaner on the market. This type of cleaner employs the same techniques as a pressure side cleaner by using water pressure to push dirt and debris into a mesh or skimmer bag but instead of using the filter to provide the water pressure, each cleaner has a built it pump. You can run a robotic pool cleaner when your pool isn’t running. It plugs into an outlet and you drop in right in the swimming pool. It’s the easiest of all the cleaners too.
