The Beatbot robotic pool cleaner presents the pool owner with some real cost benefits through its energy efficiency, low maintenance, and reduced labor costs. The Beatbot operates on 100 watts of power, consuming up to 50% less energy compared to a traditional suction-based pool cleaner that requires 200 watts or more. This then translates into reduced electricity bills, translating into a saving of up to $200 annually for the energy consumed, depending on the local rates.
Along with its energy efficiency, the Beatbot minimizes operation costs. Conventionally, cleaning your pool may mean chemical treatments, hired labor, or repeated repairs after some time, as apparatus wears and tears. The Beatbot has been designed to be self-operating and is serviced less frequently compared to its alternatives. In this respect, over an average 5-year period, users may realize savings of between $500 and $1,000 in maintenance costs. According to a study done by Pool Maintenance Solutions in 2022, robotic cleaners like the Beatbot can reduce the cost of pool maintenance by as much as 30% per year.
The Beatbot also negates the need to employ professional pool cleaners whose average cost can be up to $100 per visit. In those cases where cleaning tasks are fully executed by the Beatbot autonomously, owners can save such periodic expenses. Actually, users say they are able to reduce their cost by 75% to hire services related to pool cleaning after buying the robot. This translates to $3,600 or more over a period of 3 years.
The Beatbot was designed to have a modular approach that would allow the partial replacement of parts that may become worn out, such as brushes and filters, instead of changing an entire unit. This has been very cost-effective. According to PoolTech Monthly, “modular components extend the life and lower the long-term cost of robotic pool cleaners, making them a smarter investment for ongoing pool maintenance.”
Besides all these saving in energy, maintenance, and labor, the Beatbot seems to pay for its cost to most pool owners. It really offers an alternative that’s more intelligent and economically viable in taking good care of the pool without a dent in your wallet.
