Vantage self-cleaning

Newcastle's #1 Self-Cleaning Smart Pool System

The Vantage self-cleaning system uses a series of floor jets built into the pool shell at the factory. These jets create a programmed circulation pattern that sweeps debris to the main drain, circulates water evenly through the filtration system, and distributes chemicals throughout the pool — all automatically, on a timer. The result is a genuinely smart pool — cleaner water, lower chemical use, reduced electricity costs and virtually zero manual cleaning. Our Vantage pools are more energy-efficient than traditionally maintained pools, and far less work. You swim. The pool looks after itself. Justin Magro, Compass Pools Newcastle

The Vantage self-cleaning system builds cleaning heads right into the floor and steps of your pool, circulating the water and sweeping debris to the drain automatically.

How Vantage self-cleaning works

Nobody buys a pool to spend their weekends skimming it. Vantage is Compass’s in-floor cleaning system: a network of pop-up nozzles built into the pool floor and steps that push debris toward the main drain while keeping the water moving and evenly heated.

It means less time on maintenance and more time actually enjoying the pool. It’s an optional add-on compatible with most Compass ranges — and one of the upgrades our customers tell us they’re happiest they chose.

Vantage self-cleaning questions — answered

Does the pool really clean itself — completely?

The Vantage system handles the heavy lifting — circulating water, removing debris from the floor, and distributing chemicals. For most owners, there is no manual vacuuming or brushing required. Occasional water chemistry checks are still recommended, but the pool maintains itself day to day.

Is Vantage an optional upgrade or standard?

Vantage is available on every Compass pool shape and size. While it is technically an option in the Compass range, at Compass Pools Newcastle we strongly recommend it to every customer — and the majority of our Newcastle builds include it. We're happy to discuss the difference in cost vs ongoing savings at your site inspection.

How does Vantage compare to a robotic pool cleaner?

Robotic cleaners vacuum the floor but cannot circulate water, distribute chemicals, or clean walls and the waterline effectively. They also need charging, maintenance and eventual replacement. The Vantage system is a permanent, integral part of the pool that does all of this automatically — with no ongoing equipment costs.

Does Vantage work with a spa or beach zone?

Yes — the Vantage system is compatible with pool and spa combinations, waders and beach zones. The entire pool area is covered by the cleaning and circulation system, not just the main pool shell.

How much does a self-cleaning pool save on running costs?

Savings vary by pool size and usage, but Newcastle Vantage pool owners typically see significant reductions in chemical use and no expenditure on robotic cleaner equipment. The even water circulation also reduces electricity consumption versus traditional filtration approaches.

Can I add Vantage to an existing pool?

The Vantage system is built into the pool shell during manufacturing — it cannot be retrofitted to an existing pool. If you're building a new pool in Newcastle, now is the time to include it. We can discuss exactly what's involved at your free site inspection or showroom visit.
