With So Many Types of Pool Cleaners Which One Should You Choose Amanda Tipps Automatic pool cleaners have come a long way from their early beginnings not too many decades ago. So now there are more choices then ever before for someone that is out shopping for one. Automatic pool cleaners come in three basic forms and they are suction side, pressure side and electric crawling pool cleaners. Pressure Side and Suction Side Pool Cleaners Pressure side and suction side pool cleaners are powered by the pools pump system, through a hose that is ran to the unit from the water outlet. Suction side pool cleaners will have a suction hose ran to them, while pressure side pool cleaners will have a hose from the opposite end of the system powering them. Basic Differences Between the Two There are a few basic differences in how the two types of pool cleaners function. For instance, pressure side pool cleaners will tend to have a few more functions then vacuum side pool cleaners, such as being able to move around and they will also often have their own debris bag. Vacuum side pool cleaners will tend to be stationary and have few if any moving parts. Electric Crawing Pool Cleaners Electric crawling pool cleaners come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, as well as prices. They can be cordless, which means that they contain batteries and have to be recharged from time to time or they can be powered by a conventional electric cord the runs to them. The feature options for electric crawling pool cleaners can vary widely, depending on what you are in the market for. It All Depends on the Pool What type of automatic pool cleaner that suits your needs basically depends on what type and size of pool that you have. Concrete, built in pools have different requirements then plastic lined above ground pools, so there are above ground and built in pool cleaners for each type of pool. If you are having an above ground pool installed in your backyard then one option is to purchase a complete package that comes with all of the equipment that the pool requires, including the pool cleaner.
