NanoFilters™

Often overlooked, having a NanoFilter™ can be the most important part of a pool robot. Without it, small microscopic particulate will pass right through the standard filters found on most robots. These highly advanced filters capture more debris than any other filter on the market, leaving you with a cleaner, happier, and healthier pool.

NanoFilters™ capture fine dirt and debris that passes through the standard filters

The Dolphin Escape has optional NanoFilters™
yes
The Aquabot X4 does not include NanoFilters™

Standard Fine Filter

These standard filters help capture larger items such as small leaves and other debris, while maximizing flow rate. However, if your pool struggles with cloudy pool water, small algae, or sand. You many want to consider a unit with NanoFilters™.

Anti-Tangle Cable Swivel
