What is an Automatic Pool Cleaner?

Automatic Pool Cleaners
An automatic pool cleaner is a machine that removes dirt and debris from a pool. Once it is placed in the pool, very little effort is required on the part of the human operator. An automatic cleaner helps to keep a pool clean on a daily basis, but it cannot fully replace a professional cleaning service.
Although an automatic cleaner can reduce the amount of cleanings required, there is no substitute for the precision of a (human) pool cleaner that can skim leaves off the surface of the water and scrub deposits off of pool tile.
Types of Automatic Pool Cleaners
There are three main types of automatic pool cleaners.
1. Suction Side Cleaner
