Our problem is that our pool surface gets covered in tiny bugs.Will the solar Breeze pool cleaner collect these

I am 99.9% certain it will collect any size bugs. I know we get some (not a lot) of small flying critters and it gets them all.
1104115
Yes it picks up bugs and even pollen which is small. It has a fine mesh in the tray.
1104116
Yes i had the same problem, solar breeze picks up all the bugs and anything else that floats
1104117
Yes. It has a very fine screen that will collect them. If the bugs are still alive I guess it would be possible they could craw out though.
1104118
Yes it will, as long as they stay on the surface. We have a dog who sheds a lot & that's why we bought ours. The skimmer has become obsolete. Now I only have to use our Hayward Navigator sweep about once a week.

Yes it should. In Atlanta, the SB does a really good job even with polen. I would suggest cleaning often when the bugs are in hatch.

It collects bugs big and small, as well as debris like leaves, pollen, hair, etc. It has a fine mesh screen so it will pick up pretty tiny stuff!

Yes. I hardly got in my pool because it was always covered with bugs, they didnt seem to be going in the skimmer, now with the solar breeze my pool is perfectly clear of bugs even small frogs and salmanders. The bottom stays cleaner and I dont have to run the dolphin as much. It runs day and night. I love it.

i am using it to cover 6ft pool at my mom's house and it works good keeping bugs & stuff out. it is small pool for aqua therapy for my dog and is not in all day sun so not sure if it is actually heating the water or not. i bought as add on item and it's totally worth the few bucks that i spent on it. we only use the pool a few days a week.

i make sure i clean the filter before i vacum the pool and after..you can try that

yes, I'd say so. You will need a way to vacuum it all up. A Clarifier clumps all the particles floating in your pool. This includes algae too. the dead bodies of lagae float around after you shock or use chlorine. Read the instructions, add per instructions- it won't take much. Leave overnight, and you should see the pool bottom covered with the particles, usually grayish color. Vacuum it up and you're done. Some of it may also be sucked into your filter. Hope that helps.

I don't know the answer to that. We have only used them in chlorinated pools.

I had this product severral years ago and I found it didn't work well at all. I don't remember too much about it other than it got stuck alot and didn't do a good job cleaning the pool. I currently use a "Ray-Vac." That product keeps my pool sparkling clean.

No. You'd need a solar cover for that. This just keeps leaves and debris out of the pool. My water stays nice and cool, even though the pool sits out in the Florida sun

I am noy sure, I do not use a solar blanket on my pool. PoolSkim removes surface dirt so the water needs to move fteely for PoolSkim to work. The must be operational and cirulating the water. Hope this helps.

I use a pool service and the solar fish is always in the pool and we have not had any problem. I don't know if the auto vac would be able to glide over the fish and vacuum it; remember the fish is lying flat at the bottom of the pool.

Email subject line from manufacturer received this morning (4/6/2015): The Solar-Breeze will not be available for the 2015 swimming pool season. We are working through a financial restructuring of the business and will let you know as soon as product will be available.&#8207;

I have never tried it but it should be no problem. But if you have a cover on the pool, it really shouldn't need cleaning.
1444027
Yes it will. I've had the can for several years as well. And I can't ever remember having an issue with flies/gnats. I didn't clean mine out weekly either. The trash has even been full for a day or so without me noticing flies.

I had algae on one end and i think it was the solar cover that was causing it. Once i got rid of it algae went away. With the cleaner once u shock the pool sweep algae away and use cleaner a few times a week it doesnt come back. The cleaner also keeps my filter clean. I only hav to backwash once in summer not because i hav to. I tell everyone to get this tiger shark

I would be very careful not to get it in the pool or on any plastic,vinyl or tile. Not sure what the solution might do to those areas.

That is why I suggested contacting the company that makes them. Before I bought this for my fresh water pool I did that. Always best to check with them if not sure.

We had an old solar cover on the pool, last summer ( not this one) Trapped a huge frog underneath and by the time we discovered it, it was gross. Be careful
