An automatic cleaner does the work nobody enjoys: lifting sand, leaves and the fine film of algae off the floor, the coving and, with many models, the walls and waterline. Here we list suction-driven cleaners that run on the pump and filter of the pool itself, mains-powered electric robots with their own motor and filter unit, and cordless battery models. Alongside complete cleaners you will find the units grouped by model name, because brushes, tracks, filter media, impellers and cables are all model-specific and are easiest to find once the exact series is known.

Suction cleaners, electric robots and cordless units

The three families behave very differently in use and in maintenance. A suction cleaner such as the Hayward Whaly or the Flotide automatic suction cleaner rated at 4.5 mu00b3/h connects to the skimmer or a dedicated suction line and is driven by the water flow, so it needs a pump and filter with enough capacity and a clean filter to keep moving. An electric robot such as the Maytronics Dolphin or Zodiac Vortex range works independently of the circulation system, collects debris in its own filter bag or cartridge and is powered through a floating cable and a transformer. Cordless models, including the Flotide XR3 with a flow range of 14u201318 mu00b3/h, remove the cable altogether and run from an internal battery.

• Porszívók u2013 hose sections, diaphragms or turbines, foot pads, flow regulators and skimmer adaptors are the usual consumables.
• Mains electric robots u2013 brushes, tracks or wheels, filter bags and cartridges, impellers, floating cables and power supplies.
• Cordless robots u2013 brushes, filter baskets, seals and chargers, with the battery pack as the main long-term wear item.
• Accessories u2013 caddies, hose weights, cable swivels and spare filter media for faster turnaround between cleans.

Brands and series covered

The range brings together several of the names most often found at European poolsides. Maytronics is represented by the Dolphin family, including the Dolphin E10, E20, Ex 10, S100, Cainan 1 and Supreme M5. Zodiac appears with the Vortex 2, 3 and 4, the Vortex 3-4 4WD, the Vortex 3 Saphir and the XA 4010, 4030, 4045 and 4095 iQ. Astralpool is covered with the Xtreme 1 and the Xtreme 2 and 3. Hayward is present with the Whaly suction cleaner and the TigerShark QC in PVC, while Flotide contributes the XR2 and XR3 and Norsup the Aquaracer.

Grouping by series matters because manufacturers often change a brush profile, a track or a filter panel between generations that share a family name. The Vortex 2 and the Vortex 3-4 4WD are a good example: the badge is similar, the running gear is not.

Identifying your model and the right spare part

Start with the rating label or the moulded marking on the body of the cleaner, usually on the underside or inside the filter compartment. Note the full designation, not just the family u2013 Dolphin E20 rather than Dolphin, XA 4045 iQ rather than XA. On older units the label may be worn, in which case the power supply or transformer often carries a matching reference.

• Ecsetek u2013 check whether the original is a smooth rubber, a combed PVC or a wonder-brush type, and whether it clips on or slides into a rail.
• Szűrőközeg u2013 bags, baskets and cartridge panels are not interchangeable between series; count the panels and compare the frame shape before ordering.
• Tracks and wheels u2013 measure the tread width and confirm whether the unit is two-wheel drive or 4WD.
• Cables u2013 note the length and the connector type at the transformer end; swivel and non-swivel versions exist within the same family.
• Hoses and seals u2013 for suction cleaners, measure the hose diameter and the length of each section, and measure an existing seal across the outside diameter and the cross-section rather than guessing.

Where an exploded drawing is available for a series, parts are referenced by position number. Working from that number is the most reliable method, because it removes any ambiguity over similar-looking components.

Choosing a cleaner for your pool

Pool shape, surface and debris type decide more than price does. A floor-only suction cleaner is often enough for a small pool with a liner and little overhanging planting. Pools with steep coving, tiled walls or a lot of leaf fall usually benefit from an electric robot that climbs walls and brushes the waterline. For public or heavily used pools, a larger-capacity unit with a cleanable cartridge saves time. Cordless models suit pools where routing a cable is awkward, or where the cleaner is moved between basins.

Pool robots at PoolParthub.com

Here you will find complete suction cleaners, mains robots and cordless units from Hayward, Flotide, Norsup, Maytronics, Zodiac and Astralpool, together with the brushes, filter media, tracks, impellers, hoses and cables that keep them running season after season.

The listing is organised by brand and series so that a part can be matched to a specific machine rather than a family name. That keeps older units in service for longer and makes it straightforward to order consumables such as brushes and filter bags before the swimming season starts.
