Kreepy Krauly suggestion

[pandan74]

Hi, My pool has the in-floor cleaning system, but previous owners plugged the main floor drain. The effect is that all debris sit on the floor. I brush every 2-3 days and vacuum once a week, but I need some help (too many chores!). I'm not sure what was the reason or thinking to plugged the main drain but I think the fastest solution would be to get a kreepy krauly. Do you have any suggestion which one I should get? Or which one NOT to buy it? Thanks!

My Active20 (equivalent to the S200) that I purchased from Marina in 2017 does a great job. It cleans up the dust we get from wind storms and leaves from the neighbors trees.

The cleaner you mention is a suction side cleaner. It will need you to run your pump to clean. A robot does not need the pump to run. It is self contained. I suspect you have a single speed pump and thus it costs you quite a lot to run the pump. In the future you will be getting a VS pump motor (Federal Regulation) and thus the suction side cleaner will not work unless you run the pump at high rates.

Actually I have a Pentair VS pump installed 2 months ago Actually I'm thinking about a robot. The in-floor cleaning system works OK, so once a week I need to vacuum the bottom of the pool from smaller leaves and dust. Thank you!
