    Shallow Areas: In search of the Holy Grail

    I have a large shallow area with 3 channels that go to a huge landing. All are about 4" to 6" in depth. I want to clean it with a 25 micron bag. I can clean larger debris with a net.

The story started with my wireless Goldline ps-8 controller with a message that the base receiver is not responding. I went to the local display on the outside and reset the breaker switch.
