How Does an Automatic Pool Cleaner Work?

An automatic robotic pool cleaner will clean and filter the pool surfaces while collecting dirt and debris in a bag or filter basket, which can be emptied once the cleaning cycle is complete. Electricity powers a suction pump that vacuums dirt and debris through a series of internal chambers. As the water passes through the cleaner, the filter traps impurities. The filter can be easily cleaned after each use with a garden hose or similar tool.

An automatic pool cleaner is designed to maintain an optimal level of cleanliness autonomously. The built-in processor is powered through an electrical cable connected to the unit and controls both the cleaning pump and the drive motors via a jet propulsion system.

Automatic robotic pool cleaners perform two essential functions: navigation and cleaning. Navigation is controlled by the robot’s motherboard, ensuring that the cleaner operates without requiring supervision during the entire pool cleaning process.

Types of Automatic Pool Cleaners

There are three types of automatic pool cleaners depending on the energy source required for operation: electric pool cleaners, hydraulic pool cleaners, and pressure-side pool cleaners.

Electric Pool Cleaners

Electric pool cleaners do not need to be connected to the pool filtration system because they are fully autonomous and programmable, completely independent from filtration. They simply connect to the electrical network and are powered by low-voltage current (12, 24, or 30V) through a transformer. They move across the pool floor, walls, and waterline using wheels or tracks during pre-programmed cleaning cycles. Dirt is collected in a filter bag or cartridge that must be periodically emptied and cleaned.

Hydraulic Pool Cleaners

Hydraulic suction pool cleaners connect to the skimmer or dedicated suction inlet and are powered by the pool filtration system, moving randomly across the pool floor and walls. Cleaning requires no supervision, as debris is directed to the pump pre-filter and filtration system.

The power supplied by the filtration pump allows the cleaner to perform three different actions:

  • Automatic movement around the pool.
  • Suction required to remove leaves, dirt, and impurities present in the water.
  • Transporting debris to the pump pre-filter, where it remains trapped.

Pressure-Side Pool Cleaners

The energy required for pressure-side pool cleaners comes from the pool filtration system. However, instead of connecting to suction inlets, they connect to the pool return line. They usually require the installation of an additional booster pump. Pressurized water is directed to the cleaner connection point where the robot is attached. These cleaners are equipped with filter bags that collect debris, preventing it from reaching the pump pre-filter.

How to Choose the Ideal Automatic Pool Cleaner for Your Pool

There are countless automatic pool cleaners available with different features and performance levels. To make the right choice, you should consider three key aspects before buying your robotic cleaner:

  • Pool dimensions

The first thing you should consider is the size of the pool: length, width, and depth. It is important to measure your pool correctly, as there are robots with different power levels designed to adapt to specific pool sizes.

  • Pool wall materials

Another important detail is the material of the pool walls. They may be made of liner, prefabricated materials, or concrete with mosaic tiles. The type of wall surface will influence the choice of the pool cleaner.

  • Type of pool stairs and floor edges

Automatic pool cleaners often encounter difficulties with built-in pool stairs, so you should carefully review the robot’s specifications before purchasing. Stainless steel ladders, however, do not usually present any issues. Regarding the pool floor edges, you should choose a robotic pool cleaner based on whether the edges are rounded or square, as different models are designed for each type of pool shape.
