Recently purchased a Scuba S1 and have been pretty happy with it. The only problem is I get extremely fine silt/sand left behind. I'm assuming this is too small for the 180micron filter basket it comes with. I'm not aware nor could find any replacement baskets so I'm thinking of getting 50 micron filter sheets (like what a fish tank uses, I think they call it polishing filter) and lining the inside of the basket with it. I was curious if anyone else has attempted this before regardless of the make of their pool robot?
Airper S1(any robot), using a different filter?
- Thread starter Mleads310
- Start date
This seems like a reasonable approach. I would try to pick up the robot after 1 hr to determine if it is working and not clogging up such that water flow through the filter is blocked. In another post, I read that Aiper was coming out with a finer basket for the 2025 model but has not been released yet. It is supposed to fit existing model.

Due to the short release time of AIPER X1, I have not actually used it, but I have Aquasense Pro. Its advantage(beatbot) is that it is made with great precision and has a seemingly strong waterproof performance. And there is a 3-year warranty,Although it hasn't been three years since its birth...
