My pool cleaner gets stuck in the corners.

Most common ways a pool cleaner gets stuck. The stronger the water flow the more likely it is to get stuck in one place. This is most likely caused when pool cleaners are left in the pool 24 7. In order to prevent the cleaner from getting stuck in the first place you ll have to adjust the suction by controlling the water flow through it.

This is mainly due to the medium sized deflector ring which came with the unit getting stuck against the side wall next to the steps. This is why problems tend to rise with your cleaner when the pool is re plastered. When the water is cold or cools. Your first issue is to resolve the problem of the cleaner getting stuck or going in circles.

When you reinstall your hose you will notice the cleaner will now want to travel to the furthest points of your pool and his behaviour would have improved. The easiest solution is a flow keeper valve. The returning water pressure can be pointed at a corner that the cleaner is stuck in to help move the hose out of a corner thus allowing the unit to clean the pool more effectively and becoming less maintenance and causing ware on the head of the cleaner. Recently purchased a zodiac barracuda g2 pool cleaner which keeps getting stuck where the steps from the swimout section meets the side wall.

Suction balance between the water flow through the pool drain and the water flow through the pool cleaner. Even a slight variation in the angle of the pool bottom related to the drain can cause the pool cleaner to get stuck. Here are some solutions that will help.
