I'm going to purchase a robotic pool cleaner and have somewhat narrowed my choices: Non-Jet Units: AquaBot - Junior Dolphin - Nautilus Polaris - 9100 Smartpool - Smartkleen - Scrubber 60 - Climber SwimBot - HD Jet Units AquaBot - Turbo T Jet - Thunder G...

Very good question - I maintain my own pool, but have a professional come once per year to do a thorough inspection and change out the gaskets, etc. He also does any major repairs so he's familiar with my pool. He was the first person to suggest I "supplement" the pop-ups because they are...

The dirt is evenly distributed over the entire shallow end (1st 1/3 of the pool). It's the same every day and it looks like I never sweep the shallow end but the deep end looks fine. Even when I brush the pool every day, it's there. Part of the problem is that the dirt gets stirred up while...

I live in AZ and have a salt water, inground 20,000 gallon pebbletec pool with a pop-up in-floor cleaning sytem. Shallow end is 3' and deep end is 6 1/2'. I've NEVER been happy with the in-floor system because it just pushes the dirt and leaves to the shallow end of the pool regardless of how...

I had to prime yesterday, so I made sure the skimmer basket was clean, the pump basket was clean and the round piece at the bottom of the skimmer box was in place. I filled the pump basket with water, secured the lid back on and started it up obtaining nromal pressure. I sat by the pool for...

The wier gate is operating correctly - thanks for that suggestion.

Yes - the pump basket is full of water when it primes and is running. When it doesn't prime the basket does NOT have water in it and I have to fill it then turn on the pump and it works correctly.

My pump is about 8 years old and has worked well until recently. I have a 20k salt water in-ground pool in Phoenix, AZ. I've noticed a steady drip each time it runs and lately it's doesn't prime every time it turns on. It primes sometimes and not others. The pressure is at 0 when it doesn't...
