I recently got a Pentair Warrior SI from Marina and I was wondering what sized items should it pick up?
I have a fair amount of the small gravel from my asphalt roofing shingles that makes it into my pool. My ancient IFCS sweeps it to the deep end and piles it there. My robot (unnamed) goes over it but won't pick it up. It won't pick it up on the normal cleaning cycle or if a I "drive it" with bluetooth directly over the gravel 5+ times.
I tried pulling out the screens and only using the pleated filters that were freshly cleaned. I also tried cleaning the impeller. No luck.
My cleaner does pick up leaves and silt relatively well.
Is it expecting too much for the robot to pick this up? My old suction side cleaner (hayward aquanaut 200) would pick this up fine.
I welcome any thoughts or advice. Thanks so much!
