HOW DOES IT WORK?

2 Paddles and Large Debris Tray

The Solarskimmer works with no app needed. It is equipped with 2 paddles which rotate in the water pool and assist the cleaner in moving around the pool while debris like leaves, twigs, bugs, and dust are drawn into the debris tray located at the bottom of the skimmer. Pretty simple right? The skimmer cleaner moves very slowly in the pool making it very effective to pick up debris even the tiniest one. Moreover, it is equipped with a large debris tray allowing the skimmer to pick up more dirt on the surface than the usual skimming method. 

4 Infrared Sensors and Water Jet 

This sensor enables the cleaner to detect the edge of your pool and the jet located in front will activate keeping the solarskimmer away from the sides and corner.

Also, while letting this skimmer run around your pool, it is suggested to turn off the pool pump to avoid the cleaner from getting stuck as we all know that the pump draws water in. This way, this enables the cleaner to maximize its cleaning time.

Rapid Charging 

If you are in a hurry and wanted to use the cleaner immediately or don’t want to wait the whole day for the sun to fully charge the cleaner or maybe it’s winter and no ray of light, then worry no more, because the cleaner has a 110V charger that allows the skimmer to be charged rapidly.

How long does it take to charge if we use the sun?

It only takes around 4 hours to charge the Solaskimmer Solar-Powered Pool Skimmer from the sun. It is recommended to use the Solaskimmer during cloudy days for maximum cleaning time. The skimmer operates up to 8 hours per day.
