Will the PoolCleaner 2 Wheel or 4 Wheel Suction Cleaner climb my pool wall?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/25/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

These cleaners may climb up a 1/4 of the way on the wall and will turn back down because of a flap mechanism on the wheel which helps it to keep from getting stuck and allows the cleaner to go in the reverse direction. Because this is a suction cleaner, it is only designed to clean the pool floor.

For a pool under 6' deep we suggest the 2 wheel Pool Cleaner. The 4 wheel cleaner is for pools deeper than 6'. The 4 wheel cleaners come with 33' of hose and you may purchase additonal hoses for both here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/07501352028024.htm

The 2 wheeled cleaner would be just fine since the gallons are perfect for that cleaner. Also, the max depth the cleaner is "best" for is 6 feet, so you are good for that as well. If you get lots of leaves might I suggest a leaf catcher that gets placed between two of the sections of hose.  http://www.inyopools.com/Products/02201321001425.htm  This would help keep the larger debris from clogging up the pump basket.

This product requires 22 -25 gallons per minute, a minimum of 1 ½ inch plumbing throughout the pool. Optimum wheel speed is 11-13 rpm, per the manual (I am assuming you have a suction side cleaner!). GPM will be important, but you will have to adjust for proper wheel speed anyway.

Hi, Daniel. If you have an In-Floor Cleaning System you are not required to use an alternate vacuum. I cannot guarantee the vacuum will clear the pop-up heads. It may, as it has a unique design to help guide the cleaner over uneven surfaces and strange shapes. If the In-Floor cleaning system is operating properly you should not need an additional automatic pool cleaner. You may keep a manual vacuum and hose on hand for quick clean-ups. This style allows you to have control of the movement of the vacuum.

The tires for vinyl pools are not included with the cleaner. Here is a link to the FRONT TIRE KIT - Jacuzzi Tracker -2X & 4X (2 IN A KIT, BLUE) (896584000-075) to use in a vinyl pool. Please note the tires are sold in a quantity of two so you would need to order 1 set for the 2-wheel model or 2 sets for the 4-wheel model.

My pools about 28x15 and 5.5 deep at deepest, 3 at shallow end. 2 wheel or 4?

The 2 wheel cleaner works for pools up to 6ft deep so the 2 wheel cleaner would be fine for your pool.

Hi, Jen. Based on everything you said you've done I would recommend rechecking the suction to the cleaner and making sure the filter is cleaned. You can also try isolating the suction line to see if the unit moves. You can also try calling Hayward's Tech Support line at 908.355.7995 for assistance.

I recently purchased 2 a wheel "pool cleaner" from Inyo and noticed the last couple days that the cleaner has started hovering approx 3-4 feet above the pool bottom. Can you tell me how to fix this problem? Thanks.
 Reply

A  Answered on 3/20/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Andy O.

Hello Gerald- There are a couple things to look for in this case. The first would be insufficient suction, I would just make sure there is enough suction for the cleaner to move and stay on the pool bottom. The second would be to check the position of the hose floats. And finally, make sure your jets are not pointing straight up.
