Polaris 280 Pressure Side Automatic Pool Cleaner
Best dependable cleaning for consistent pool maintenance.
The Polaris 280 is a highly popular pressure-side pool cleaner designed for all in-ground pools, requiring a booster pump for operation. Its dual-jet system provides powerful vacuuming and efficient cleaning. This cleaner scrubs, sweeps, and vacuums pool surfaces, collecting debris like leaves, acorns, and pebbles in its single-chamber filter bag. This prevents larger debris from reaching your pool's filtration system, thus extending its lifespan. The package includes the cleaner, a 31-foot feed hose, a universal wall fitting, a back-up valve, and a filter bag.
