robot vaccum

I have a Jandy 380 pool sweep powered by the Polaris PB4-60 booster pump. Its worked fine for about 7 years, but now the pump has quit and needs replacing. I just heard about robot vacuums. Has anyone made the switch from a booster/Jandy 380 to a robot vacuum? Any recommendations? I'm...

I have a pool that was originally built with an in-floor cleaning system - it doesn't really work. I bought a pool vac that I use and like, but I have to run it through the skimmer which means that all of the surface debris goes straight to the pump strainer. I've been looking at...

Our 920 is 2 years old but it's always exhibited this behavior. It just seems to be too sensitive to low water conditions. When it starts scrubbing the waterline in the shallow end of the pool (~15" deep), it turns off. I can get it to continue vacuuming if the water level is exactly right, but...

I inherited the pool with recently purchased home. It's an inground 22K gallon pull with a regular pump and booster pump + polaris 280. Now that my booster stopped working, I'm evaluating whether I should repair, get a robo or get a suction cleaner. It will cost me ~600 to replace (including...

So I got a small, 13 foot above ground pool (Coleman/Bestway) like this one at Lowes (~3,000 gallons) for my back yard. I got a vacuum on a pole for cleaning the bottom (~$160). I wish I could say it sucks, but it doesn't...and that's the problem. There is some suction, but hardly enough to pick...

I’ve been looking to get a robot cleaner for 2 years (on and off) and have yet to come to anything close to being ready to buy one. I don’t mind spending a bit but if I’m going to spend $1-2k (CAD) on a pool vac I don’t want to regret my decision. Here’s the issue- I go to the various vendor...

Hi, we have a newly acquired pool and planning to DIY the maintenance and add SWG, probably Pentair IC60 since the existing equipment is all Pentair. My question is what value does the automated system add versus syncing up the pool timer and SWG timer? The pool doesn’t get that dirty but...

Hello everyone! I’m new to posting here but have found the information on the forum extremely helpful as I’m settling in to being a new pool owner. Looking for some suggestions with a new problem… I recently purchased a new dolphin robot for our inground pool and I love it (used this forum for...

Hi All, i recently purchased a used Polaris P825robot off of Let-Go for a steal. After I got home, threw it in the pool and plugged it in and all was fine. Ran a cycle for about 1 1/2 hours. second time I went to use it, the SCS error indicator blinked once... and from Polaris that means...

My automatic cleaner won’t work I’ve tried 3 different ones and nothing when I plug it in the vacuum side of the pool. If I put my hands in front I feel suctions but when I plug in the cleaner it won’t work or it will stop after a few minutes. Any suggestions?

Hello, We are getting a new pool installed; 16'-18' x 35 ft, 6 ft deep gunite. We have never owned a pool before, so we only know what we find online or what people tell us. A pressure vacuum was recommended by one PB, but then it was shot down by many, many others. So we are not going that...
