....that is the question.
I'm a third year pool owner. Our installer included a Polaris TR28P pressure side cleaner with Polaris PB4-6 booster pump. It does a decent at picking up debris, but lately it seems to want to get stuck at the base of a wall or fly around in the middle of the water column.
I'm debating on changing over to a robot and had a few questions:
How much better are robotic cleaners than pressure side cleaners in regards to cleaning?
Do robotic cleaners simply vacuum up debris or do that also perform any scrubbing?
How many years do they typically last? I've read on here that motors tend to fail regularly and that they are costly to repair.
Thanks all!
