These robotic pool cleaners function independently from your pool’s pump and filter system, controlled by computers. These cleaners use low-voltage electricity, instead of your pool or booster pump, reducing energy expenses by reducing the running time of your pool pump. Furthermore, their integrated filter decreases the load on your pool’s main filtration system, further decreasing energy usage and extending the life of both the pump and filter, as well as lengthening the interval between filter cleanings. In addition, these cleaners are user-friendly, simply requiring plugging in and placing in the pool, with some models even equipped with remote controls for convenient spot cleaning.
Advantages include superior cleaning and energy efficiency, as well as a reduction in the wear and tear of your pool equipment. However, the higher initial expense and the requirement to empty the filter are potential drawbacks to consider.
