Swimming Pool Tips and Reviews

Superior Pump has been in business for over 15 years now with ties to the plumbing industry dating back to the 1970's. If you are in need of draining your swimming pool down, these pumps would be a great choice. They are a family owned and operated business and offer some of the best warranties on their pumps in the industry. Depending on the pump you can get a warranty from one year up to five years on the pump. They can offer such a great warranty because they build a quality pump which will last well past the warranty period. Some of the great features included with each pump are: A one piece motor housing makes the pump stronger and dissipates heat with great effectiveness. An Electronically controlled Split Capacitor is like having two gears, 1 st gear is a boost for startup and then 2 nd gear for efficient continuous operation.

This is the Aquabot Pool Rover Jr. a robotic cleaner for your above ground pool. The Aqaubot  Pool Rover Jr does a great job cleaning an above ground pool and well worth looking into. It is priced around $300 so it is an affordable way to keep your above ground pool clean, especially if you lack a suction port or have undersized pool equipment.

But Aquabot offers a variety of lower priced robotic pool cleaners that are reliable and highly effective. This is the Aquabot AJET122 Pool Rover S2-50 Robotic Pool Cleaner for Above-Ground and Small In-Ground Pools. The Pool Rover S2-50 is a solid robotic cleaner that is priced in the suction side cleaner range. I will start with the things it lacks for $400 which are, no remote, doesn't climb the walls to the tile line, no tangle free cord and a 1-2 hour run time. These are things that you can live without really if you are looking in this price range. What it comes with more than makes up for what it doesn't. First lets start with the color of this thing - the bright yellow is super cool and eye catching. It has 50 ft of cable and a cord detangler built onto the cable. It has large debris openings on the bottom, rugged t
