    Temp too cold for pool cleaner?

    Update: I did hear back from Marina; they are saying that there is a short somewhere in the wire that runs in the cable that connects the control panel to the cleaner. They are still maintaining that there can be issues with the sensor when the water temp is in the low 50’s based on guidance...

    Temp too cold for pool cleaner?

    Just heard back from Marina, who heard back from Maytronics: Maytronics indicated pool temps in the low 50 degrees can trigger the sensor so they just want us to get that one back and test it to see if it is the software or if there is something else going on. If it is defective, we will send...

    Temp too cold for pool cleaner?

    Thanks for responding! The only reference I can find to temps in the manual that was shipped states under the troubleshooting section “Cleaner does not climb walls” is that “Ideal water temperature between 54-90F.” I’m also concerned I might not even be able to confirm if the unit works for a...

    Temp too cold for pool cleaner?

    Just unboxed a brand new Warrior SI and put it in the pool. Power supply works, but pool cleaner won’t move. Indicator light won’t come on. Called Marina, who I purchased it from and they said pool cleaners won’t work when water temp is less than 54 degrees (they are confirming the temp). Is...

    Yes, impeller is clear and machine can still climb walls; that’s all it seems to do unfortunately.

    Doheny Discovery troubleshooting

    I’ve had The Dohenny Discovery for about 4 years. Lately it is not cleaning the pool. The impeller is clear, the filter basket is empty. Initially I thought it wasnt able to pick up debris and another user here suggested that the drain flap might have been warped. That appeared to be true, so I...

    Doheny Discovery Robot troubleshooting

    I have owned the Doheny Discovery since Summer 2016. It’s been good to us; we replaced the motor (covered under 2 year warranty) about 18 months in and haven’t had any trouble from it since. Lately though, it’s not picking up debris. It can move around the pool just fine, but the filter basket...

    Does high pH inhibit chlorine effectiveness?

    I’m on Day 4 of SLAMming my pool. At the start of the SLAM, I adjusted my pH, as recommended, to 7.2. My CYA level is 30, so my target SLAM level is 12, which I’ve been maintaining. The pool water looks really good but I do still have some stubborn spores of mold on the plaster, and I’ve yet to...

    Doheny Discovery

    I've had my Dohenny Discovery for about a year and am now having a problem with it. When I turn it on it lights up on the control panel and the robot does too in the pool. Then it rolls about 6 inches and shuts off. I've made sure I have enough line in the water, the unit is clean. I even...

    Has anyone ever used this vendor before? They have a good price on a pool pump I am considering purchasing but I feel funny making a major purchase from a company that I found in a google search.

    Was Recomended a Specific Replacement Pump - does it seem reasonable?

    WoodyP I'm pretty certain you are right. Upon closer inspection, there appear to be wiring instructions on the sticker as well and they seem to indicate that you have to wire it one way for 115v or another way for 230v.
