problem: cleaner head floats
CAUSES SOLUTIONS
Cleaner head or return line has air in it Remove all air from cleaner head
Stop all air from entering the pool through
the return lines
If cleaner head and hose are covered with fine
bubbles, give the hose a good tug. This will release
the air bubbles and allow the cleaner head to settle
to the bottom of the pool until the hose is covered
with bubbles again
The cleaner head is being pulled or lifted off
the bottom of the pool by the cleaner hose
or return line flow – either at the surface or at
the bottom of the pool – or both Readjust return lines to prevent water flow from
interfering with cleaner head and/or hose
