ZAK The Pool Minder was invented in the spring of 2012, and after rigorous designing and testing, it was ready for production. It was patented and trademarked in the spring of 2013, with the formation of Pool Minder Incorporated. The Pool Minder is manufactured, assembled, and packaged in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. ZAK 2.0 is a must for all in-ground and above-ground pools. It collects the debris floating on the pool’s surface (such as leaves, keys, and the “white fluffies” that fall from the trees) prior to them entering the skimmer, allowing for a clear and clean flow of water to the skimmer. This will allow the pump and filter to continuously work at their full capacity. A further advantage of ZAK 2.0 is that it will save the little critters (frogs, chipmunks, baby rabbits, etc.) that somehow end up in all of our pools. ZAK will catch them and prevent them from ending up at the bottom of your skimmer. With only a quick snap, you can empty the debris and also release the critters back into your garden. All of our staff that work for Pool Minder Incorporated want to Thank You for choosing ZAK The Pool Minder. It will keep your pool surface clean while enjoying your summer swimming experience for many years.
