My Pool Cleaner Is Stuck, What Can I Do?

Many robot owners are telling me their pool cleaner is stuck on the main drain grate.

I discussed this problem with Aqua Quality Pools and Spas, Inc.They have two fixes.

The first is a Grate cover by Polaris. Stainless screws attach 3 rubber flanges to a center cap creating a 20 inch diameter grate cover with a low profile.

A recent buyer of this cover had this to say; "Works like a charm... Can't thank you enough"

This cover is not yet on their website but you can order from Aqua Quality Pools and Spas, Inc. by calling 1-866-876-8643. Cover is $60 + shipping.

If you have 2 or more main drains and own an Aquabot or Blue Diamond/Pearl, then the second solution may be best.

The second solution is a new bottom plate made for the Aquabot T2/T4. This plate has a wheel built into it that diverts it from obstruction and helps roll over everything. This part should fit all residential Aquabot Pool Cleaners.

Buy it at Aquaqualitypools.com.
