The Swimming Pool Cleaner - Hollywood Or Bust

The human swimming pool cleaner, aka "The Pool Boy" has had a long and storied career in Hollywood's screen presentations, most notably in "Harold and Maude" with a swimming pool cleaner/screenwriter wannabe whose script deliberately left at poolside was discovered by a producer and turned into a movie.

But swimming pool cleaners, at least most of them, do not write or end up in movies; in fact, most of them are not even human. Swimming pool cleaners are tools designed to ease the unpleasant aspect of having a backyard pool; namely, keeping its water clean and hygienic. There are a wide variety of swimming pool cleaners available, but they all fall into one of three categories.

Types Of Swimming Pool Cleaners

The most common swimming pool cleaners are the manual vacuum cleaners, complete with the same parts as your indoor vacuum contains. Your manual swimming pool cleaner will have a dirt collection bag, filters, a motor which creates suction, and hoses--everything a good vacuum should have. But you are the manpower which guides the manual swimming pool cleaner into all the nooks and crannies of your pool.

Automatic swimming pool cleaners do the same thing manual swimming pool cleaners do but they do it with much less human assistance. Once you position them in an area of the pool which needs cleaning they will get to work and scoop up all the unwanted material.

Robotic swimming pool cleaners are the new, and smartest, kids on the pool cleaning block. Far more high-tech than their manual and automatic counterparts, they contain microchips which make them smart enough to work independently of their human owners. If you have a robotic swimming pool cleaner, all you need do is put it in your pool, press the on switch, and go somewhere to get good and hot because when you return in a few hours, your pool will be sparkling clean and ready to cool you off.

Manual, automatic, and robotic swimming pool cleaners are all readily available, and every year become more advanced as their manufacturers seek to maintain and increase their customer bases. If you have a serviceable swimming pool cleaner, you should just keep using it until it wears out, because if you wait long enough you will be able to replace it with one possessing features as yet undreamed of.

Who knows; the next generation of swimming pool cleaners may take a page from Hollywood's book and start leaving scripts at poolside for the perusal of directors and producers!
