To figure out what type of pool vacuum you need, consider the size, surface, and debris of your pool, along with your budget and preferred level of effort.

Robotic Vacuums: Are for the user who wants the most thorough cleaning with the least effort.

Pressure Side Pool Cleaners: Are perfect for pools with a lot of large debris and leaves. Further more they are more budget friendly.

Suction Side Pool Cleaners: Are the most budget friendly cleaners and are better suited for a smaller pool, with minimal debris like sand and dirt.

Manual Pool Cleaners: Are best for someone on a tight budget or for pools that require less cleaning.

Some cleaners are not compatible with variable speed pumps. The best way to figure this out is to consult with the manufacturers guidelines or ask a pool professional.

The best way to troubleshoot low suction is checking for clogs, backwashing the filter, and ensuring proper pump operation.
