Polaris 360/380 Bag

No, this specific bag is engineered exclusively for the Polaris Vac-Sweep 360 and 380 models. It will not fit other Polaris cleaners, such as the 280 or the 3900 Sport.

The All Purpose bag is designed with a mesh weave that balances debris retention and water flow. While it is capable of capturing fine silt and sand, it is primarily built to handle a varied mix of debris, including larger items like leaves and twigs, without clogging as quickly as a dedicated fine-mesh bag.

The Velcro closure is designed for frequent use and typically lasts as long as the mesh material itself. To maximize its lifespan, ensure you rinse the Velcro strips clean of any sand or debris after emptying the bag to maintain a secure seal.

You should replace the bag when you notice holes, thinning fabric, or if the Velcro no longer seals securely. Depending on your pool's debris load and how well you maintain the bag, most owners find they need a replacement every one to two seasons.

It is not recommended to machine wash this bag, as the agitation can damage the mesh and weaken the Velcro. The best way to clean it is to turn it inside out, hose it off with a garden sprayer, and let it air dry completely.
