For aquatic facilities across regional Western Australia, keeping essential equipment operating efficiently can present unique challenges. When a commercial robotic pool cleaner breaks down, operators can face additional maintenance demands, increased pressure on staff and the time and expense of transporting equipment to Perth for repairs.

Recognising these challenges, LIWA Aquatics Principal Professional Development Sponsor, Pool Robotics Perth, is bringing specialist servicing directly to regional facilities through its mobile commercial servicing initiative.

The initiative sees Pool Robotics Perth technicians travel to regional locations in a fully equipped service vehicle, providing on-site diagnostics, repairs and preventative maintenance for commercial robotic pool cleaners.

Reducing downtime and freight costs

For regional aquatic facilities, sending a robotic pool cleaner to Perth for servicing can involve significant freight costs and extended periods without essential cleaning equipment.

Pool Robotics Perth's mobile servicing model aims to reduce these disruptions by bringing the workshop directly to regional operators.

Equipped with specialist diagnostic tools and a range of commonly required spare parts, technicians can assess equipment and, where possible, complete repairs during scheduled regional visits.

This approach helps reduce the need to transport equipment to Perth, minimising downtime and allowing facility staff to focus on their day-to-day operations rather than additional manual cleaning.

Preventative maintenance to support long-term performance

Beyond responding to equipment breakdowns, Pool Robotics Perth's regional servicing initiative also focuses on preventative maintenance.

During scheduled servicing, technicians can identify signs of wear, developing faults and components that may require attention before they result in more significant equipment failures.

For aquatic facility operators, regular preventative maintenance can help:

• Identify potential equipment issues before they escalate.
• Reduce unexpected breakdowns and operational disruptions.
• Maintain cleaning performance and equipment efficiency.
• Extend the working life of commercial robotic pool cleaners.
• Support more effective maintenance planning and budgeting.

Addressing smaller issues during a scheduled service can be particularly valuable for regional facilities, where unexpected equipment failures during busy operating periods can place additional pressure on already stretched resources.

Supporting regional aquatic facilities

Access to specialist technical services can be challenging for facilities operating outside metropolitan Perth, particularly when equipment requires assessment or repairs that cannot be completed by on-site staff.

By taking its servicing capabilities directly to regional WA, Pool Robotics Perth is helping make specialist support more accessible while reducing some of the logistical challenges associated with maintaining commercial pool cleaning equipment.

The initiative reflects the company's ongoing commitment to supporting aquatic facility operators across Western Australia, extending beyond equipment supply to provide practical maintenance solutions that help facilities operate efficiently.

As LIWA Aquatics' Principal Professional Development Sponsor for 2026–27, Pool Robotics Perth continues to demonstrate its investment in the aquatic and recreation industry through both its support of industry learning opportunities and the specialist services it provides to facilities across the state.

For regional aquatic facilities looking to reduce equipment downtime, minimise freight costs or plan preventative maintenance, Pool Robotics Perth's mobile servicing initiative offers a practical solution.

Facility operators are encouraged to contact Dave Shephard at Pool Robotics Perth to discuss their commercial robotic pool cleaner servicing requirements and enquire about upcoming regional service visits.
