The Importance of Waterline Cleaning

Hey guys! It’s Joshua with Poolbots.com. And today we are looking at why waterline cleaning is a vital feature when considering which pool robot to purchase!

The Cleaning Burden

Firstly, waterline cleaning robots such as the Dolphin Premier or Sigma will take a huge cleaning burden off of you. If you are buying an automated pool cleaner, you are expecting it to do all the pool cleaning for you. Without waterline cleaning, you will still have to pull out a pool brush and scrub away the dirtiest part of your pool, the waterline, which is called the scum line for a reason. The scum line is where the algae, bacteria, and biofilm grow. These organisms are hard to remove if left unchecked and can present a risk to some swimmers. Why get a robot like the Nautilus CC Plus if you still have to do manual work to pick up where it left off?

Pool Appearance

Speaking of the waterline being the dirtiest part of your pool, we come to the second reason why you’ll want waterline cleaning: the appearance of your pool. A pool with a lot of build-up at the waterline is an eyesore in the moment, but it only becomes more of an issue as time progresses. Over time, all of the dirt, algae, and grime left behind by robots without waterline cleaning will build up and stain your pool edging. This build-up will end up requiring a ton of work to remove. Even if you manage to remove it, you will most likely end up with a noticeable and unattractive ring around your pool.

Conclusion

So when you go looking for your next pool robot, make sure to get one with waterline cleaning such as the Dolphin Premier, Dolphin Sigma, or Dolphin Quantum so you can save yourself time and avoid an ugly pool.
