Main Difference Between the Models
- Trivac 700 has a skimming function that allows collecting of debris from the swimming pool water surface.
- To execute an additional function in Trivac 700, additional navigation and a special nozzle on the top were added.
- As a more modern electronic device warranty for Trivac 700 was extended up to 2 years. Trivac 500 has only one year warranty.
- These listed differences make the Trivac 700 an exceptional product; as usual a skimmer was a separate device, or you have to use a net with a telescopic handle to collect all surface garbage.
