Aquabot Can Save You Money On Your Electric Bill

Bookmark This Delicious StumbleUpon

I was looking on Aquaproducts.com and they have a really great calculator to use to find out how much money you can save by using an Aquabot to clean your swimming pool. Pretty Interesting.

ENERGY SAVINGS CALCULATOR

The following information is provided to offer you your approximate energy savings based on your current pool cleaning method. For a more accurate estimation of the energy savings you can enjoy with your Aqua Products cleaner based on specific data like your true Kwh (kilowatt per hour) cost, please scroll further below, enter your pool information in the Energy Savings Calculator fields and press “Calculate” for your customized energy savings analysis. Please know that the estimations below and the energy savings calculations do not include the additional energy savings experienced by pool heater temperature reductions.

If you currently clean your pool periodically manually by hand and Do Not Use Any swimming pool cleaner (suction, pressure or robotic):
By operating your Aqua Products cleaner anywhere from 6 to 8 hours per day and cutting down the running time of your main pool filter system to just 2 to 4 hours per day respectively, you may enjoy energy savings of more than $60.00 / month (up to $360.00 annually)!

If you currently clean your pool using a Suction-Side cleaner (i.e. Kreepy Krauly®, Baracuda®, Navigator®, Pool Vac®, etc.):
Due to the required increase in the running time of your pool’s main filtration system because of the restricted flow and circulation caused by your suction-side cleaner, you will enjoy even greater energy savings than pool owners that do not use an automatic cleaner of any kind. By operating your Aqua Products cleaner anywhere from 6 to 8 hours per day and cutting down the running time of your main pool filter system to just 2 to 4 hours per day respectively, you may enjoy energy savings of more than $70.00 / month (up to $420.00 annually)!

If you currently clean your pool using a Pressure Side cleaner (i.e. Polaris®, Letro®, Phantom®, Viper®, etc.):
Due to the required increase in the running time of your pool’s main filtration system because of the restricted flow and circulation caused by your return fitting pressure-side cleaner or the increased energy consumption caused by your pressure-side cleaner with booster pump, you will enjoy the greatest energy savings of pool owners. By operating your Aqua Products cleaner anywhere from 6 to 8 hours per day, eliminating the use of the booster pump altogether and cutting down the running time of your main pool filter system to just 2 to 4 hours per day respectively, you may enjoy energy savings of more than $180.00 monthly (up to $2,200.00 annually)!
