PRESSURE CLEANERS

10 May 2022

Pressure pool cleaners are more affordable than robotics and don’t need electricity to operate.

If you are looking for a mid-range pool cleaner, then pressure models are the way to go. These cleaners work with the pool’s pump system to clean the pool effectively with a combination of suction and jet action. The water pressure from the pump moves the cleaner around the pool, which gives the cleaner its name.

The main plus of this type of cleaner is that it deposits dirt and debris into its own attached mesh bag, meaning it doesn’t wear out the pool’s filter or skimmer box or fill them with debris. It also means they don’t need any electricity or outside power to work.

There are pressure pool cleaners that require a booster pump in order to work while others run strictly off your main circulation pump.

Swimart’s JetVac Pool Pressure Cleaner, which is known for its durability construction and reliable cleaning cycle, requires both a dedicated pressure line and booster pump to operate. Its huge, 115mm throat easily scoops up most large items into its 3.5L capacity debris collection bag.

Key requirements to operate our JetVac pressure pool cleaner:

  • Dedicated return line – typically requires a 50mm pressure pipe to be run through the pool wall and then a 40mm pipe run to the pool equipment. It’s usually located halfway down the length of the pool at arm depth
  • Booster pump – designed specifically to operate pressure pool pumps 
  • Delay switch –  water for the booster pump is sourced from the filtration requirement, which means that the pool pump must be running at the same time. To synchronise these two pumps, a delay switch is recommended

Another great feature of the JetVac is that it features forward/reverse cycles to ensure complete pool coverage on any surface without getting caught in corners. 

Our goal is to do all that hard work, so you don’t have to. Find out more about Swimart’s range of pressure pool cleaners by calling 1300 991 104.
