How to clean pool tiles with a robot cleaner
Swimming pool tiling is attractive, durable and easy to maintain... provided you use the right tools. Over time, limescale deposits, algae, dirt and micro-organisms build up in the joints and on the walls. While cleaning by hand is an option, it is tedious and often insufficient. Fortunately, new-generation robotic pool cleaners can now remove even the most stubborn dirt from tiled pools. At the forefront are smart models such as the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Ultra, featuring HybridSense™ AI technology. Focus on an effective, autonomous and effortless method to keep your tiled pool sparkling.
Why tiling requires special attention
Tiling is one of the most popular coverings for swimming pools thanks to its durability, high-end appearance and resistance to chemicals. However, it has one drawback: the joints between the tiles easily trap dirt, algae and limescale residues. These areas are hard to reach with a conventional brush and often require intensive scrubbing.Pool robots equipped with active brushes are particularly suitable for this task. They exert continuous pressure on the tiles, removing impurities and vacuuming them up immediately. It is a hygienic, effective solution for both smooth and non-slip tiles.
High-performance brushes for deep cleaning
Not all robots are the same when it comes to scrubbing tiles. Top-of-the-range models are equipped with active rotating silicone brushes, capable of removing dirt without damaging the joints. The Beatbot AquaSense 2 Pro, for example, has DuoSpeedFlex™ brushes that adjust their speed to the area being cleaned for precise and powerful cleaning on tiles.It is this ability to alternate between gentle and vigorous action that makes it possible to effectively remove algae or limescale stains while preserving the tile finish.
Smart navigation to cover all walls
The biggest challenge with tiled pools is ensuring that every joint, every wall and every corner is properly cleaned. Thanks to HybridSense™ technology, robots such as the Beatbot AquaSense 2 Ultra use an on-board camera and AI to map the pool, detect critical areas, and return to them if necessary.This smart navigation system avoids random passes and ensures uniform cleaning from bottom to waterline, even in complex pools. Unlike other robots from brands like Aiper or some Dolphin models, the Beatbot optimises its movements to avoid omissions and increase efficiency. In parallel, an efficient filtration system plays an essential role. The AquaSense 2 Pro and Ultra models feature ClearWater™ technology: a dual filter system that captures both large debris and micro-particles invisible to the naked eye.
This fine filtration prevents dirt from redepositing on the tiles after the robot has passed. The result is long-lasting cleanliness and crystal-clear water, even with intensive use.
Surface maintenance to complement the iSkim Ultra
Cleaning the tiles is all well and good. But if impurities are constantly falling from the surface, the efforts are quickly negated. For comprehensive maintenance, Beatbot also offers the iSkim Ultra solar skimmer, which cleans the surface by capturing leaves, pollen and insects before they sink. This reduces deposits in the grout and extends tile cleanliness.Cleaning your pool tiles has never been easier with a well-equipped smart robot. The Beatbot AquaSense 2 Pro and Ultra models, with their active brushes, HybridSense™ AI and dual filtration, provide professional-level cleaning at home. Coupled with the iSkim Ultra for the surface, you get a 100% autonomous system that maintains water quality and the cleanliness of the tiling over the long term. The result? A sparkling pool, always ready for a dip.
