Maintaining Energy Efficiency While Cleaning Your Pool

 

Striving to remain energy efficient while owning a pool can be a daunting task, but it really isn’t as hard as it seems. By choosing the best equipment and appropriate schedules you can maintain your pool and maintain a green, energy efficient footprint.

 

While many people associate energy savings and energy efficiency only with pool pumps, any equipment on your pool pad, in your pool and for your pool can make a change in your energy footprint. In this article we’re going to focus on how selecting an energy efficient pool cleaner can help!

 

Pentair offers four types of pool cleaners – suction side, pressure side, robotic and above ground – and many of these cleaners carry the EcoSelect designation. This designation is given to the “greenest” and most energy efficient products Pentair offers. These products are designed to help you save money, conserve water, eliminate or reduce noise or contribute to a more environmentally responsible equipment system.

	Robotic Cleaners Robotic cleaners are the most eco-friendly choice. With a self-contained filtration system, they don’t put any additional wear on your existing pool equipment. Just plug the cleaner's control unit into an outlet, submerge it and let the cleaner do the rest!
	Suction Side Cleaners Suction side cleaners work just like a vacuum cleaner. They attach to the suction line of your pool's plumbing system. Suction power pulls debris from the floor and walls. The debris passes through to your skimmer and pool filtration system.
	Pressure Side Cleaners Pressure side cleaners use water pressure from a dedicated booster pump and/or pool pump to drive the cleaner around your pool. During the cleaning process, it uses pressure to force debris into a filter bag, which makes them easy to collect and discard.
	Above Ground Cleaners Pentair offers both suction side and robotic above ground pool cleaners. While they work just like inground pool cleaners, they are specifically designed to meet the demands of above ground pools.
