Hi All - Hope everyone is enjoying their last few weeks of summer.

We have some organic stains in our pool. If we get the chlorine up close to SLAM levels, would the brushing from a Dolphin Nautilus be sufficient to remove the stains (in most cases)? Or is it something you think we'll have to manually do with our metal pool brush? We don't once a pool cleaner yet, but limiting manual brushing to a few spots would be preferable over a lot of brushing would be great (we have a lot of stains)!

Thanks in advance for any input.
 

First need to understand source of stain; but no, I wouldn't expect a robot to pick up anything that can't be disturbed with simple water movement.

Thank you, @reggiehammond. It's stains from organic material resting in the corners of the pool during winter months (6 months for us haha). I was hoping the 'brush' on a pool robot would have a similar effect as manually brushing the pool, but sounds like you're saying that's an unlikely expectation.
