What makes the Beatbot iSkim Ultra the best pool skimmer?

Keeping the surface of your pool clean is often a headache... leaves, insects, pollen, dust: everything continuously accumulates. Yet few solutions are truly effective and autonomous. With the Beatbot iSkim Ultra, skimming enters a new era. This smart and 100% autonomous robot skimmer cleans the surface of your pool without any effort on your part. Powered by solar energy, with smart navigation and an impressive filtration capacity, it is today the absolute benchmark in skimming. Light years ahead of low-end models like the Aiper Surfer, here's why the iSkim Ultra is unrivalled. 

Complete and sustainable solar power

The iSkim Ultra runs exclusively on solar power, thanks to high-efficiency panels integrated into its cover. No need for a plug or a battery to charge: it works as soon as the sun shines. It even stores energy to continue cleaning autonomously when the sky is overcast. It is a truly eco-responsible, silent and economical solution.

In contrast, the Aiper Surfer only lasts a few hours and requires frequent recharging, not to mention its random interruptions mid-cycle. The iSkim Ultra, on the other hand, works continuously all day, with impressive reliability and energy autonomy that makes it totally independent.

Smart navigation to cover the entire surface

The on-board smart system of the Beatbot iSkim Ultra makes all the difference. Thanks to autonomous navigation technology, it can detect the most congested areas and focus its efforts there. It avoids obstacles, efficiently cleans the edges, and adjusts its trajectory without human intervention. There is no risk of it getting stuck or moving in circles unnecessarily. In comparison, the Aiper Surfer is a basic floating robot without a real detection system. It floats randomly, misses parts of the pool and often requires manual intervention. The iSkim Ultra, on the other hand, learns your pool for methodical and complete cleaning.

Superior collection capacity

Thanks to a large-capacity basket and an efficient suction system, the iSkim Ultra is capable of capturing a large volume of debris without quickly becoming saturated. Leaves, twigs, insects, dust... nothing escapes it. Its filtration system even traps very fine floating particles, preventing them from sinking. This performance far exceeds that of entry-level models like the Aiper Surfer, whose low capacity requires frequent emptying and disrupts cleaning continuity. With the iSkim Ultra, you can leave the robot on the surface for several days without having to check on it.

Ideal compatibility with AquaSense robots

The iSkim Ultra has been designed to work in perfect synergy with Beatbot AquaSense bottom robots – in particular the Pro and Ultra models. While the latter take care of the bottom, the iSkim Ultra cleans the surface simultaneously. You benefit from fully autonomous 360° maintenance from top to bottom. This complementary duo is the key to a pool that is always spotless, without manual intervention.

The remote-controlled robot offers customised maintenance

Choosing a remote-controlled pool robot means opting for ultra-personalised maintenance that is fast and perfectly suited to your lifestyle. With the Beatbot AquaSense Pro, Ultra or AquaSense 2 Pro models, you benefit from the ideal combination of cutting-edge technology, extended battery life, smart connectivity and ease of use. Thanks to integrated Wi-Fi, you can control your robot even when you are away. Whether at home or elsewhere, your pool remains under control, clean and ready for use. Beatbot redefines connected cleaning... and puts you in charge.
