How do you install Pentair Dorado pool cleaner?

Similarly, can you leave pool vacuum in pool overnight?

Cleaners aren’t meant to stay in the pool 24/7. This is true for all cleaners. Pressure side cleaners run on a schedule every day so why take it out? Leaving the cleaner in the pool 24/7 increases its exposure to corrosive chemicals in the water, such as chlorine or shock.

In this regard, how does a suction side pool cleaner work? It works by connecting directly to your skimmer or a dedicated suction line that pulls in water to the pump. The cleaner then moves around the pool, sucking up sediment and debris and sending it to the pump filter basket and the pool filter. Pools have a filtration system that keeps the pool water filtered and clean.

Even if you had a pool vacuum, it wouldn’t help you much if the floor of your pool is covered in big items such as leaves, flower petals, acorns, and other large plant droppings. To remove these items, use a leaf rake to gather them into a pile on the bottom of your pool and then remove the debris pile by hand.

For routine vacuuming, the filter valve is left in the normal “Filter” position.
