Platypool — home

Twenty minutes of work
reduced to one

Place it on the water, pull the rope and walk. That is all it takes.

A classic pool skimmer is 30 centimetres wide.
Your pool is four thousand.
The maths is simple

2m

of net in a single pass

800g

guided with just one finger

7kg

of leaves in one load

1min

to assemble, with no tools

Two movements no one had thought to combine

The Platypool net collects leaves and insects from the surface

The surface

Two metres of net sweep the full width in one pass. Leaves, insects, pine needles and pollen disappear before they sink.

The integrated brushes scrub the pool waterline

The waterline

The end brushes stay pressed against the wall. The greasy line is cleaned while you collect debris, with no bending down.

What is a summer without
chores worth?

Mougins, 2020. A hotelier is tired
of fishing for leaves

Platypool guided by rope along a pool on the French Riviera

Jean-Jacques, an inventor at heart, was looking for a way to clean his hotel's pool without losing the whole morning. The first prototype was tested in 2020, and the idea clicked.

Two years later, more than 10,000 families across France and Europe use it. Platypool is still made in France and assembled by ESAT Les Tournesols in Colmar.

Have a question?

Place it on the water and pull the rope as you walk around the pool. It floats and collects everything in its path.

To remove it, pull the rope, shake it out in a corner and leave it to dry. Once dry, another quick shake removes the pollen.

No. You assemble it once when it arrives, in four steps and without tools. It takes just one minute. You can also take it apart and store it in its box over winter.

Yes: in-ground or above-ground, liner, tiled, concrete or wooden, in any shape or size. If your pool is more than 4 metres wide, simply make two passes.

No. Platypool cleans the surface and waterline; a robot cleans the bottom. They complement each other. Using Platypool regularly means fewer leaves reach the bottom and less work for the robot.

Every part can be replaced and our customer service team is based in France. More than 10,000 Platypools have been sold without a single after-sales return. If anything goes wrong, we send the part immediately and free of charge.
