Can this bot (or other cleaner bots in general) be left in the pool or is it recommended to remove them between cleanings?

The instructions say not to leave in the pool btwn cleanings. The longest I have left mine in was abt 12 hrs.

Stop using OxyClean immediately. The cleaning agents in OxyClean can eat away at the tubing of the spotbot.

I net my pool before I place my vacuum in the pool I would suggest to try and remove all larger objects but this vacuum does a wonderful job totally love it !!!!!! Hope this helps.

We keep ours in the pool 24/7, no problem. The new model seems to get clogged a lot easier with leaves and acorns than the older one we replaced.

It will clean for 4 hours and then turn off. The filter then needs to be cleaned out. Don't leave it in when swimming. I put it in pool daily or every other day. Does a great job. The only way I could keep my pool clean.

I bought my most recent Hayward in June, had my previous one for 9 years. You can leave it in the pool all the time, just take it out when you are swimming so you don't crush the little guy! :)

Don't know if it is necessary to empty the water after each use, but it is a good practice. Water in a closed container can harbor bacteria. If you remove the cleaner the batteries are are not making contact with a source so you don't have to remove them. Hope this helps

You can ,I do only thing is you constily have to rinse your filter. I have two filters that I use so I replace one when it is dirty and then I rinse the other one out and vicerca till the pool is clean. This are the steps that I use to vacuum the pool. But first remove all the leaves and sticks from the pool before vacuuming.

I have used mine for 2 years and have never experienced that problem. Have you checked to make sure the cloth filter doesn't need cleaning? I love mine, I never have to vac my pool. It was well worth the money. I would recommend this rover to anyone. I'm a widow, so it's just me to keep my pool clean. I have 4 grandkids that help mess it up...lol lol

We do not remove, we have young children and teenagers in our pool and have no problems. They learn to watch out for it. This does not stick out much. If you want to remove it is simple, just remove one screw and slip off. I don't think you will find this a problem.

We have an inground pool with stairs at the shallow end. This is our 3rd year with this robotic cleaner. This pool cleaner will go around stairs, but it will not climb them. My unit climbs the beveled sides, and even the vertical sides of our pool with no difficulty. Please note: the vacuum bags must be kept clean for the unit to run properly.

Ann, We have used the Great White cleaner in our pool for 10 years. We also have the pebble tec finish, and have not found any problems with the cleaner removing the finish. We were so happy with it that when we needed a new one (not the fault of the original) we purchased another Great White. I hope this helps.

I have never tried it but it should be no problem. But if you have a cover on the pool, it really shouldn't need cleaning.

I do not have a salt water pool; however, my girlfriend does have an in ground salt water pool and uses this device daily. She has had it for quite a number of years and has never had an issue with it. It is only in the pool when cleaning. When it comes out, she cleans it thoroughly and rinses it out. Then it's ready for the next clean up. Hope this answered your question. This Aquabot is awesome!!!!! Put it on and let it work.
