Don't Buy Without Waterline Cleaning

It is so important to make sure this feature is in your next robotic pool cleaner. Waterline cleaning is essential to keeping a pool clean! This is where most of the build up of algae, dirt, and bacteria happens in your pool happens. There are tons of robotic pool cleaners with this feature such as Maytronic's Dolphin Premier, Dolphin Sigma, Dolphin Quantum, or Aquabot's Elite and Elite Pro.

In-depth Article

What Is One Thing Every Robotic Pool Cleaner Should Do?

Hey guys! It’s Joshua with Poolbots.com, and today we are looking at the one thing every robotic pool cleaner should do: Clean the waterline! The waterline of your pool is often called the tile line or scum line, and it is where 99% of debris and bacteria live and is the dirtiest part of the pool.

Importance of Cleaning the Waterline

At the waterline, dirt, debris, and algae like to gather and build up, and this makes it annoying to clean by hand because it needs constant attention. This also means that if you buy a robotic pool cleaner to take the pool cleaning load off of yourself, you will be very disappointed if the bot misses the area that takes up most of your time. Be careful of units that claim wall climbing though, it is not the same as waterline scrubbing! These other units will only climb the wall such as the Nautilus CC plus, and not actually scrub the waterline which is very disappointing.

Recommending the Dolphin Premier and Sigma

Of those that can actually live up to their waterline cleaning name, we will recommend the Dolphin Premier and Sigma because they can consistently attack and clean the waterline, as well as offer many other features that make them unbeatable. Be sure to check our deals on the Dolphin Premier and Sigma at poolbots.com. There you’ll often save big with instant coupons and free or discounted accessories like storage covers. Our staff is also standing by to help you pick the best robotic pool cleaner for your above ground pool, all at an unbeatable price.
