What level should the pool water be?

Should the pool water remain at a certain level? For your pool to be clean and for your equipment, including the pool cleaner, such as the Beatbot or any other wired or wireless robotic machine, to function properly, it is essential to have an adequate water level. This article will guide you on the water level your pool should have and the need for this level for your pool cleaner. Why does the pool need to be kept at a certain level? There are several reasons why the water level in a pool should be important. Not only does it affect the operation of the pool skimmer and the filtration work of your pool cleaner, but it also affects the operation of the pool skimmer and the filtration work of your pool cleaner. A water level that is too low is not suitable for the proper functioning of any cleaning device, while a high level can cause overflows or interrupt the pump’s activity. Improved cleaning: The pool cleaner will not be able to navigate well if the water level is at low level.

Additionally, the pool skimmer will be unable to absorb water properly and clean it properly, leaving the pool surface unfinished. Coastal damage to equipment: A very low water level exposes the pump to the risk of sucking in air, which could damage the motor. This lower water level will make pool robots ineffective, which means an unsatisfactory cleaning job.

What is the right water level for the pool?

Generally, the correct water level for a swimming pool is the level of the pool skimmer. This allows for adequate water circulation in the filtration system and ensures that your cleaning tools, including the cordless pool robot, are working properly.

1. Regular Skimmers The skimmer is a surface-mounted tool used to vacuum debris from the surface. To function as intended, there must be enough pool water to cover the skimmer and allow for adequate circulation. Otherwise, the unit will suck in air instead of water, damaging the pump and reducing the cleaner’s effectiveness.
2. Above-ground skimmers The same principle applies to above-ground pool skimmers. The water level should be sufficient to cover the skimmer and ensure good filtration, as the device keeps the water circulating in above-ground pools.
3. The Pool Robot. Newer pool robots also require adequate water levels to function. If the water level is too low, due to construction work for example, the robot will have difficulty moving. It’s also important to note that some pool robots, such as the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Pro, have a built-in filtration system that must be used based on the skimmer’s filtration, which also makes an optimal water level mandatory.

How to adjust your pool’s water level? Here are some methods to ensure the level is at the desired height so your equipment can function properly without the risk of breakdown or damage. First, evaporation: Due to evaporation, the pool water may no longer be at the required height. It is essential to regularly check the water level and adjust it if necessary. Second, automatic filling systems: Some pools have automatic filling systems that maintain the water level at the same height. If you don’t have this system, you must manually monitor the water level and adjust it as needed. Third, overflow: An excessive water level could cause overflow, damage, or saturate the filtration system, resulting in some water loss.

Therefore, balance is essential to avoid excess. The advantages of robotic pool cleaners play a role in water level control. These are well-designed devices for cleaning the pool floor, walls, and, in some cases, the pool surface. These robots use the same filtration system as your pool. Beatbot robots like the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Pro and Beatbot iSkim Ultra use smart sensors to adjust their water level to ensure cleaning, even when their water level fluctuates, leaving you to your work while the robots do their job.

Tips for maintaining the correct water level

• Check the water level regularly: the water level should be at the skimmer level, for continuous circulation and to minimize damage to cleaning equipment.
• React quickly to level changes: Make sure to immediately correct any possible changes in water level.
• Check the water after maintenance/cleaning: Adding chemicals or cleaning the edges can also change the water level.

Conclusion

Maintaining the correct water level is essential for the proper functioning of your pool robot and other filtration equipment, such as a pool skimmer. This will eliminate the risk of damage and ensure a thorough daily cleaning. Whether you’re using a cordless pool robot, such as the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Pro, or a more traditional corded version, the correct water level is an essential ingredient for a clean and healthy pool. With these tips and plenty of time, all that’s left is for you to enjoy your pool all year round.
