Polaris 280 - Best way to prevent window spray?

[Needsdecaf]

I have a Polaris 280 with booster pump and it does a FABULOUS job keeping our small pool clean. Unfortunately it also likes to wash the windows too since our pool is close to our house!

I searched on here and found a few solutions - tail sweep pro gadget, a tail sweep weight and turning down the flow via the screw.

To anyone who has this and has solved the problem, which of these has worked the best? Or anything else? Thanks!

I used the weight and turned down the flow and still had a problem. The tail sweep pro solved it.

I need to look into this. Mine seems to have the habit of adding a splash of saltwater to my wifes cocktails and my beer.

can also try and cut off approx 6" of the tail.

This is why the kids named our 280 "Splash" when we moved here last year. Sorry, don't have a solution; our pool is far enough away from the house, and it's off when we're hanging out in/near the pool, but it has gotten me more than once while I was doing work in the area.
