PoolCleaner to turn and then move in another direction. This feature ensures full pool coverage and efficient cleaning.The tire treads give The PoolCleaner enhanced climbing ability and obstacle maneuverability – especially with main drains. This makes The PoolCleaner ideal for all pool surfaces and shapes, although optional tape tires may be required for smoother surfaces.

The PoolCleaner has patented adjustable roller skirts that allow the cleaner to maintain optimal suction on uneven surfaces and when encountering obstacles.

And it comes with three easily interchangeable throats to improve debris passage and suction performance, making it ideal for use with variable-speed pool pumps The Pentair Rebel is another favorite suction-side cleaner among pool service techs. It comes recommended for all surface types, and when asked about pebble specifically, a lot of service techs say the Rebel is the one. The Rebel’s sure-flow turbine’s design captures debris — both large and small — for clog-free cleaning. Cleaning out the Rebel is easy with the Quick Release Latch, which provides easy top access.

The Rebel features SmartTrac™ Programmed Steering and steadygrip tire traction with added tread to provide thorough cleaning coverage and maneuverability in tight spaces. And the dual-action roller skirt maneuvers up and over obstacles for uninterrupted cleaning. Its modern design fits into any pool environment.

Pentair’s Lil Rebel is among the highest rated suction-side cleaners for vinyl lined pools as well.

This year, Polaris Atlas gets great reviews among service techs. According the Polaris website, the Polaris Atlas suction-side cleaner collects fine silt and long, larger debris with unobstructed performance. The unique turbine inside the cleaner uses what is called HALO ™ technology for advanced debris removal. The Atlas cleaner was designed to provide clearance for larger leaves that get drawn directly into the filtration system while preventing impediments to allow for continuous, uninterrupted cleaning. The Atlas cleaner also attacks stubborn, stuck-on debris with concentrated scrubbing action to leave pools impeccably clean. Combined with multi-directional navigation for enhanced movement patterns and powerful turbines that generate unsurpassed climbing ability, the Atlas cleaner covers the entire pool — regardless of the pool’s surface — from floor to waterline.
