Automatic Pool Cleaner Repair by DCL Pool Service

Common Issues with Automatic Pool Cleaners

Automatic pool cleaners make pool maintenance easier, but over time, they can develop problems that affect their performance. Some of the most common issues include:

• Weak or no suction, leaving debris behind
• Cleaner getting stuck or not moving properly
• Hose tangling or floating instead of staying submerged
• Wheels, tracks, or brushes wearing out
• Air leaks in the hose reducing efficiency

At DCL Pool Service, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing automatic pool cleaners to keep your pool spotless and running smoothly.

How to Identify a Problem with Your Automatic Pool Cleaner

If your automatic pool cleaner isn’t working as expected, look out for these signs:

• Cleaner stays in one spot or moves erratically
• Debris remains on the pool floor after a cleaning cycle
• The hose has air bubbles, indicating a possible leak
• The cleaner flips over or struggles to climb walls
• Strange noises coming from the cleaner or pump system

Catching these issues early can prevent further damage and extend the lifespan of your cleaner.

Steps to Troubleshoot Your Automatic Pool Cleaner

Before calling for professional repair, you can try these troubleshooting steps:

• Check for obstructions in the cleaner’s intake or filter bag
• Ensure the hose connections are tight and free of leaks
• Inspect the wheels, brushes, or tracks for wear and tear
• Adjust the water flow to improve suction power
• Look for debris or dirt clogging the cleaner’s moving parts

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, our team can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the problem and provide the necessary repairs.
