Quick answers
What is wrong?
Robot struggles to resurface or clean — usually a clogged filter basket.
What you might notice
- Won't resurface
- Filter full alarm
- Poor cleaning
Can I fix this myself?
Usually yes for cleaning/clearing. Difficulty: easy · about 10-20 min. If unsure or the fault returns, use mail-in repair.
What you need
- Soft cloth
- Garden hose
Do this
- Remove and rinse the filter basket with clean water. For fine sand/algae, soak ~30 min in water + white vinegar, brush gently, reseat firmly.
- In heavy fine sediment, use inner basket first then switch to double-layer after water clears (per AquaSense Pro guidance).
- If alarms continue with a clean seated basket, request repair.
Parts (only if cleaning fails)
- None for a basic clean
