Will it work in pools with varying depths?

Out round pool goes from about 4 feet deep at the circumfirence to about 5.5 feet in the middle and it seems to work just fine. Hope this helps.

This one isn't that powerful so I wouldn't recommend it. This company does sell one that would handle your need for varying depth and also climbs walls too.

I would say that the only reason it may not work well for you would be the strength of your pump, otherwise I don't see why not. I have a vinyl inground pool.

I use it for an in ground pool and works perfect. It will also work for an above ground pool if you have the proper piping. All it does is, that the same pool pump you have runs the water through the panels before going back into the pool

Yes it works well with a 4 foot deep pool. Our Grandkids love it, the slide is really fast for being so little. Our slide is attached to a deck surrounding an above ground pool.

I would think that it will work on in ground pools as well. I attached mine to a 10' pole I purchased locally. The vacuum itself is weighted well and has sturdy brush bristles so it should clean it well.

No it will not. It had a hard time keeping my pool clean and my pool is the same size.

Maybe. My pool is 6ft at the deep end, inground. Pool length is 29ft. I think size, not depth, is a bigger factor.

Probability not. It would work on the bottom but it needs a gradual curve from floor to sides in order to climb up the walls. Above ground pools usually have a sharp angle transition from floor to walls. I had my in ground pool built with rounded edges to accommodate the Polaris.

This unit is designed for In-ground pools, but there is no reason it can not work in above ground pools as well.

It would depend on how hard you are swimming. It moves the bottom of our ladder that hangs from the deep end of the pool when I am at full speed. Easy effort should be fine.

Yes. My pool is below ground level and it works fine, even around steps. Above ground pools are an issue because of the ladders.

Yes, it will work fine and also help with pH levels and reduce the amount of chemicals needed to maintain pool. Make sure to use an outdoor unit. (scalewatcher 5 star)Jay-Better Water Store.

Hi, Chris from Polar USA here. As mentioned previously. It should work great in the pool! I have logged many many laps with mine. As another poster mentioned, the initial push off sometimes causes the transmitter to slip down. We find if we place the transmitter in our back, (upside down so the L/R sides of the transmitter are still on the L/R sides of your body) this reduces the drag and prevents that from happening. Please give us a ring if you have any questions. Chris @ Polar USAtwitter.com/chrispolarusa

It will, but make sure you measure the length for the catch line to base it on the deepest spot in your pool. Otherwise, the line will be too short on not reach the bottom.

Yes it cleans sloped surfaces down to the deep end. My pool is 35 feet long, and varies in depth from 3-12 feet. It does a good job on the gradual slope down to the deep end. However, on the steep sloped sides of the deep end, it can't make it up the sides. I also have to run it twice to cover the whole pool, but that is no problem. Overall, this has been a great little bot.

Absolutely. Above or inground, as long as it is a chlorine pool this kit will work. Go to Trouble Free Pools for all the information you could possibly want about above ground pools. I have learned so much on the site.
