Meet the Intex ZX100 auto pool cleaner, model 28006, a compact yet mighty pressure-side floor cleaner designed for above-ground pools (and spa setups) up to 18 feet in diameter. This is not a remote or battery-powered gadget—it relies on your pool’s own pump flow to generate suction inside the cleaner, delivering hands-free cleaning without extra timers or power sources.

Why this cleaner stands out

• Effortless, suction-powered cleaning—no separate power pack needed. The cleaner uses your pool’s pump to power its debris collection, so you can enjoy more time swimming and less time fiddling with equipment.
• Large-capacity debris tray with a fine mesh filter captures leaves, dirt, sand, and even small bugs in one pass, reducing frequent emptying and keeping your pool looking pristine.
• Stable cleaning path—oversized wheels rotate in one direction to maintain an efficient, consistent sweep across the pool floor.
• Tangle-free design—an angled hose elbow and swivel joint minimize hose twists and kinks, letting you clean longer with less interruption.
• Ample reach—includes a 21-foot tangle-free hose, plus a 1-1/4" converter, making setup straightforward for most above-ground pools.
• Compatibility and power range—works with pumps rated from 2,100 to 3,500 GPH, offering flexibility for a variety of Intex pool configurations.
• Lightweight and manageable—weighing around 6 kg, it’s easy to handle during installation, maintenance, and seasonal storage.

This cleaner is ideal for Intex above-ground pool owners who want a reliable, low-maintenance cleaning solution. If you’re dealing with routine debris from trees, wind, or regular use, the ZX100 keeps the floor free of grime with minimal hands-on effort—so your pool stays inviting all season long.

What to expect in real-world use

• Set up is simple: connect to the pool inlet, ensure your pump sits in the 2,100–3,500 GPH range, attach the 1-1/4" converter, and drop the cleaner into the water. The cleaning action starts as soon as the water flows.
• Ideal for weekly maintenance as an automatic floor cleaner that reduces the need for manual skimming and brushing, especially in pools that collect surface debris each day.
• Compared to manual cleaning, the ZX100 delivers a more consistent floor sweep, reaches nooks and crannies you might miss with a traditional net, and requires less ongoing attention once you’re set up.
