Tired of Cleaning Your Pool, Better Buy Kreepy Kraulys

Kreepy Kraulys are one of the most recognizable pool accessories and automatic pool cleaners in the world.  Its popularity has continued to grow to this day and is a very common sight in many Australian backyards.

Kreepy Kraulys are the original pool cleaners and were invented by a South African engineer Ferdinand Chauvier. The first prototype of the Kreepy Krauly was devised in 1951 but it wasn’t until 1974 that the Kreepy Krauly we know today was first born. Chauvier’s Kreepy Kraulys revolutionized swimming pool cleaning around the world and took the hassle out of pool cleaning forever.

The idea for the Kreepy Krauly developed over time. The need for an automatic cleaner had become apparent to Chauvier and his son Daniel, who at that time was selling pool products door to door. Daniel was exposed to pool owner’s great dislike for pool cleaning. This knowledge combined with Chauvier’s hydraulics engineering background created the idea for the original Kreepy Krauly.

The 1974 version of the Kreepy Krauly was made from a combination of wood and rubber tubing which were originally melted together on Chauvier’s kitchen stove. Daniel took the Kreepy Krauly to his customers and showed them how it worked. What he discovered was that many pool owners were reluctant to let them go.  The Kreepy Krauly was a success.

In 1978 the wooden version of the Kreepy Krauly received a make over and got its first plastic injection moulding so that it looked more like the Kreepy Krauly we know today. This visual make over was the first of many for the Kreepy Krauly. Interestingly though the original patented design of the Kreepy Krauly, with some minor technological improvements over the years, has essentially stayed the same for over 27 years. It is because of its outstanding design that Kreepy Krauly is a favourite amongst pool owners.

Choose any sand filter at Pool & Spa Warehouse within your budget

When choosing a filter for your swimming pool you will discover a full range of options which can often be overwhelming and confusing with each claiming to be better than the other. Sand filters are great options for home pools as they are the easiest to maintain regularly- which is important if you want to keep your swimming pool crystal clear and clean all year round.

Swimming pool sand filters use sand to filter and clean the water in swimming pools. Sand filters have water pushed through the bed of the filter. The sand in the sand filters catches the particles and debris that are in the water. The clean water is then pushed back into the pool.
