I'm having the same problem . Don't know why . Just bought last year. Not happy with product, seems like the hose isn't long enough. Tried with regular vacuum hose and it worked a lot better but not great . Found it easier to just do it the old fashion way.

Could be your outlet flow...pushing it to one side..could be that the hose is very brittle and does not expand nor maneuver around the pool very well...might need more hose...I add and take out hose, bi weekly it makes the vacuum clean in different patterns....

I have a left curve slide. So if I am in the pool the curve is on the right. If I am on the slide the curve is to the left. Hope that helps.

It could be that you didn't fill the float with water by holding it underwater for a minute or two when you 1st installed it. That was barely mentioned in the instructions but sounds like something that would assist in moving the float down.

Would need more information such as does it make noise in all positions and all of the time, but best guess would be a problem with the spider gasket which separates the internal ports letting water leak to an adjacent port. Remove the top of the valve and inspect the gasket, problems are usually obvious. For additional help I highly recommend a pool forum, troublefreepool dot com, thousands of members and great assistance.

There is a small plug on the side of the pool on the same side that the pump attaches. Close to the bottom.

I had the same problem. Make sure to use the string because that is what holds the plastic down. I had to look at the picture a couple of times. The four corners are held down by the string going below the pool itself.

I have the same issue except it is on the pool light. I have not been able to correct the problem, unfortunately.

I haven't had that problem. Mine works fine and I've had it quite a while now. Are you blowing the water that gets in out the top? I don't dive down with it; I just swim laps.

Good Afternoon Mr. FisherThank you for your interest in our product. The item that you are inquiring about is designed to accomplish three things. The first is to retain the heat, secondly, increase the water temperature, and lastly to prevent water evaporation. It is recommended that the cover remains on the pool any time that it is not in use. The instance in which the cover should not remain on the pool is when chemicals have been added to prevent deterioration of the items integrity.

I have had good luck by adjusting the direction of flow of the water on the valve on the side of the pool where the water comes out to circulate the water in the pool (I'm sorry, I can't think of the "technical" name for that valve at this time. Sometimes adjusting the angle of the flow lower, towards the bottom of the pool helps, but it is something you will need to play with to see what works for your particular size pool. Then, of course, anytime you take your hoses out of the water, it is also very important to keep the hose in a straight line, not in a pile. But the first suggestion is what always fixed my tangling issue.

Search Amazon for "Pentair 84900300" to see a helpful image. The flat side faces away from the pool (into the skimmer hole). On mine I had to start with the rounded side down to CAREFULLY snap the "hinge" openings down over the pivot pegs on the skimmer body (with the "hinge" end away from the pool). Then CAREFULLY rotate the weir away from the pool, past the top of the skimmer body (tight fit). It ends up with the weir tilted away from the pool with the rounded side "up". The weir is buoyant, so the water rushes shallowly over the rounded side into the skimmer, but it floats enough to keep leaves and bugs from drifting back into the pool if waves are sloshing in and out of the skimmer.

Hmmm...I've actually never experienced that. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. But could it be the chemicals your using to clean the pool? Also, the ring should only be partly inflated...the sun will inflate the rest. Shrugging beats me. Let me know if you find out what is causing it. Maybe call the manufacturer and see if they've had other customers complain of this.Have a great day.Hanna

Is this a new machine? It sounds like there may be something wrong with it. If new, maybe you should return it and get another. What kind of salt are you using? I've never had this problem so can't really offer any kind of solution. My machine is still keeping the water clear and fresh. I use Morton Pool Salt sold at Walmart.

If I remember correctly, you turn the dial to the current time (AM or PM) and then move the abs for the times you want it to run opposite of their current position. For example if it is 7 pm and you want it to come on at 8 move the tab/selector on the 8 pm one. Ours is outside in the dark and cold or I would go look. If no one has a better answer I will look at mine after work tomorrow. Does a great job running the pool filter all summer!! Set it and forget it!!

I have same trouble, but mine worked fine 1st. day, did you check the pool intake screen inside the hose fitting? You have to unscrew the hose fitting then see the plastic mesh (inside pool intake) where it will catch larger bugs and other debris, sometimes it will stop most all water flow until cleaned out.

If your pool has m,etal-backed walls a strip of thin vinyl should fix the problem. If the walls are self-supporting e.g. Intex or similar you may have to use a thicker vinyl, as long as it is really flexible.
