TECH TALK: EPISODE 5

POOL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE EQUIPMENT EXPLAINED

Keeping a swimming pool clean doesn’t have to be complicated – not when you understand the tools you’re working with. In Episode 5 of Tech Talk, Regan from Pool Systems breaks down every major pool cleaning and maintenance accessory, explaining what each tool does, when to use it, and how to achieve the best results.


Whether you’re a pool owner wanting to care for your pool properly or a technician looking to sharpen your toolkit knowledge, this guide covers everything from telescopic poles and leaf rakes to test kits and commercial-grade equipment.

 

The Backbone of All Cleaning: Telescopic Poles
Every pool manual tool connects to a telescopic pole, making it the most essential piece of equipment in your cleaning setup.
Pool Systems offers inner-lock and outer-lock poles, ranging from compact 4–8 ft poles to large 16–32 ft commercial options.

The wishbone clip attachment system allows easy and secure connection to rakes, brushes, vacuum heads, and other accessories – making the telescopic pole your universal cleaning handle.

 Leaf Removal Tools: Scoops, Rakes & Shovels

Leaf Scoop
Great for quick skimming, the leaf scoop is a simple tool designed for removing floating debris and leaves from the water’s surface.

Leaf Rake
A versatile option used both on the surface and the bottom of the pool. Pulled toward the user, the rake collects leaves and debris into its deep net — ideal for pools surrounded by trees or with heavy leaf loads.

Leaf Shovel
Built for bottom-cleaning, its sloped edge allows technicians to push large amounts of debris along the floor efficiently. It’s less common for surface use, but unbeatable for deep-cleaning.

Brushes & Brooms: Choosing the Right Tool for Your Pool

Standard Pool Broom (45 cm)
A staple in almost every household, featuring poly bristles suitable for all pool surfaces. Best for general scrubbing and routine algae prevention.

Wall & Corner Brush
One of the newest additions to the range, designed specifically for fiberglass pools and hard-to-reach concave edges like steps and safety ledges. Its compact brush head tackles angles where standard brooms can’t reach.

Stainless Steel Algae Brush
Perfect for pebblecrete or concrete pools, this brush uses stainless bristles to break through stubborn algae that regular brooms can’t remove.

Grit Brush
Created for more delicate surfaces such as vinyl and fiberglass, this brush uses extra-stiff plastic bristles to provide aggressive cleaning without surface damage.
Both algae and grit brushes are available in 6-inch and 10-inch versions.

Vacuum Heads: All-Brush vs Flexible

All-Brush Vacuum Head
Ideal for fiberglass and vinyl pools. With no wheels, it glides smoothly along soft surfaces without marking.

Flexible Vacuum Head
A favourite among technicians for concrete and pebblecrete pools. Its flexible body adjusts to uneven surfaces, while wheels reduce friction and protect finishes during vacuuming.

Both models connect to your vacuum hose and skimmer plate via the telescopic pole.
