Does this require its own pressure line as in the pool sweep?

Hi Jim. No pressure line required. The unit is all electric. It has a long, water proof power cord attached which plugs into the power controller that you will plug into a 110 volt outlet. Your outlet should be a GFCI protected outlet like is in a kitchen.

Answer here...the pool skim has to be connected to a return line not a suction line.

No, but have found that standard pool vacuum hose works fine with this unit.

Yes it should since it has built in valve that controls water pressure/flow into the cleaning head. Ours works great and we had to dial it down to keep it from climbing the walls out of the pool.

Sandra, no it doesn't and BTW , I would not recommend this product, the swivel joint on top of this vacuum attachment cracked after only 2-3 cleanings and the worst part, it is filled with sand and itspilled out all over the pool, I would recommend reading other reviews on this to see if others had the same issue .

No-the hose/vacuum port, release valve, and pressure guage are all-in-one...a bit of a design flaw I'm afraid.

It does better if you dialogs it first. You can add it directly to the pool but you will need to brush the bottom of the pool to stir it up and dialogs the shock.

NO, it requires a little pressure by the thumb from underneath. I do this to clean the lint that it picks up on the rollers.It is a great unit, just wish it was not quite as bulky.

It does come with a pressure gauge, My understanding is this model does replace most models. Too be sure contact Hayward or try inyour pool.com they help me a lot.

No, it doesn't. If you do use a pump, my suggestion is only blow it up part way and finish the rest on your own.

Sorry - can't answer that one for sure. My guess is that is does not matter since it is working off existing pressure of the line.

No there is no pressure tank needed it works great and is quiet I use a 5 gallon bucket to draw out of and when you turn off the flow the pump shuts off and restarts when the flow is opened again. Good pump.

Not sure what you mean by pressure cleaner. It works off your pool intake. I love it. Works beautifully. We have many trees around us and leaves are constantly falling into our pool. The sweep does a beautiful job of keeping it all clean.

No it runs off the pool pump but even with low pressure it does a great job.

No. Everything required for the Polaris to operate within the pool is included. It is expected that a booster pump connection is supplied and available about midway along the long edge of the pool. This extra pressure drives the mechanism within the Polaris as well as a jet of water that provides the negative pressure on the bottom of of the Polaris that draws material off the bottom of the pool. I hope this answered your question.

This is not a pressure cleaner. The poolcleaner acts as a vacuum. It connects to your intake valve inside your pool (either the pool skimmer, or intake valve located on the inside of your pool). The suction of the intake value powers the Poolcleaner, which moves in every direction on your pool floor, picking up leaves, and debris. As a pool cleaner, I highly recommend this product.

We purchased a Voyager and used the in-line leaf canister we had used with a different pool sweep. It was a simple matter of using the adapters. Looks like Dave has already answered this, but wanted you to know from a customer perspective that it works.
