As creators of a floating pool skimmer robot designed to help pool owners and reduce pool energy usage, we’re always excited about events that highlight the field of robotics. National Robotics Week, established by Congress and iRobot in 2010, is designed to raise awareness about the importance of STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), and [...]
On April 5, 2018 we were notified we made the list as one of the Top Tech Startups in Tempe, and we couldn't be happier. You can see the original article here. Founded: 2008 “Solar Pool Technologies has introduced Solar-Breeze, the world’s first and only solar-powered robotic pool 3-in-1 surface cleaner. Using a Solar-Breeze reduces pool [...]
Introducing the New and Improved Robotic Pool Cleaner. The Solar-Breeze NX2 Solar-Breeze solar-powered automatic pool cleaners have helped pool owners save time, money and energy since the original Solar-Breeze debuted in 2007.

Everyone wants to make their pool the coolest, especially if you’ve got kids to entertain all summer long. When there’s a lot of activity in the pool, we suggest removing your Solar-Breeze NX and allowing it to rest and recharge in the sun. While your robot takes a break, consider adding one of these cool [...]
When it comes to sun and pools, there’s more to that relationship than just getting the perfect tan. Solar powered technology is growing in the pool industry and we want to share a few new products that take full advantage of the sun’s power. The latest solar technology for pools is designed to save pool [...]
The winter Olympic Games in PyeongChang are in full swing, and while the half-pipe, giant slalom and figure skating are fun to watch, we can help looking forward to the 2020 Summer Games. We love everything about swimming! You might think that swimming speed is strictly a result of training and athletic ability. Not so! [...]
Phoenix is one of the fastest growing cities in the country. Between July 2015 and July 2016, we added over 32,000 people to our population, according to US Census data. That beats out close contenders like Los Angeles, San Antonio and even New York City. And as our city and infrastructure continue to grow, so [...]
Whether you’ve owned a pool for years or have recently purchased a home with a pool, you may be wondering, “How much does a pool cost annually?”. Maintaining a swim-ready pool does require an investment in pool equipment, chemicals, the energy required to run the pool pump, and possibly a pool cleaning service. While some [...]
