Pool Cleaners

There are 2 basic types of cleaners, water pressure driven & electric. The water pressure is the most common. Polaris makes several versions of this type of cleaner. Differences between the models are minor. Some do not require the use of a booster pump, some units are gear driven while others are belt driven, how many Gallons per minute of water they flow, and how much debris they can carry. The better units have their own booster pump and are gear driven, actually the newest Polaris 3900 is chain driven.

The electric cleaners are more expensive, heavier units. They work faster and better than the water pressure units. They are not always as convenient though. Because of their weight and the long cord that can get tangled. An example of this type of cleaner is the Polaris 9300.
