Polaris 280 Pressure Pool Cleaner – Concrete Surfaces (W7220000)

Polaris 280 Pressure Pool Cleaner – Concrete Surfaces

The Polaris 280 is the benchmark pressure-side pool cleaner for concrete and pebblecrete pools. Powered by a dedicated booster pump, it sweeps, scrubs, and vacuums floors and walls — capturing everything from fine sand and silt to large leaves, gum nuts, and palm fronds that would overwhelm a suction cleaner — in under 3 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Polaris 280 require a booster pump?
Yes — the Polaris 280 is a pressure-side cleaner that requires a dedicated booster pump and pressure line separate from your main filtration system. If your pool doesn't have a booster pump, consider the Polaris 65 or a suction-side alternative.

Is the Polaris 280 suitable for concrete pools?
Yes — this model is specifically configured for concrete and pebblecrete surfaces. The 3-wheel drive and scrubbing action are designed for the texture and contours of concrete pools.

How often does the filter bag need emptying?
The all-purpose zippered bag is easy to remove and rinse. Frequency depends on your pool's debris load — typically after each cleaning cycle or every 1–2 days during heavy leaf fall.

Where can I get spare parts?
We stock a full range of Polaris 280 spare parts including bags, wheels, hoses, and back-up valves. Most parts are available for same-day dispatch.
