Great video!!!!!

Thanks for this video! The instructions that come with the new 280 are pretty much worthless.

This is great thank you so much!

Which way does the arrow on the swivel go?

Im a 22 pool brush tech, my boss today put a polaris in my truck and told me to go install it, I did after watching this and the client asked me questions like I’ve been installing for 40 years Thanks! Great clear and well spoken video!

Same thing as all the other videos in the instructions they show you measuring the hose to the swivel not to the end of the Polaris so I'm still confused The feed hose should be the length of the pool and the leader hose should be the depth of the pool otherwise it's not going to be long enough am I missing something

Is there a certain kind of pool lube ?

Thank you so much for this wonderful instructional video. Rarely watched one like this explaining everything well and to the point. No intro about the grandpa’s experience or why making the video etc 😂. Great job! ❤

Well done sir, learned a lot of tips, now if I could just get the directional jet adjustment right.

Excellent instructional video. I just installed my new Polaris 280 without any issues thanks to this video.

Good tutorial but just buy a tape measure....

Nicely done. How wide is your thumb? Lol

I wish I had seen this when I bought my Polaris. Only instruction I had was to cut the tube 18" past the the longest distance from the pump hole. I have been living with daily entanglements since I bought it. Next step is to fix it based on this great video.

Great tutorial, I now have a trouble free Polaris for the first time. Thank you

BRILLIANT video. I had no idea how to do this in fact the guy at Leslies said, "just throw it in". Mine is working perfectly.

Great video. Answered all my questions.

Yes. Fixed my problem thanks

Probably the best "how to install a Polaris 280" video on TH-cam. Thanks for posting.

Thank you for your help!

I dont think you need 30-40 wraps from your main line! I always use 10-12 wraps and its always worked just fine. Its over kill with that many wraps from your main line to your leader. 10-12 works just fine anything more is ridiculous!😎

How to video is great! What type of lube are you using and where can I get it?

HOW DO YOU connect and disconnect the bag

Great video! Helped a lot and very easy to understand!

Thanks, Todd. That was a great instruction video. I’d just like to know what is the purpose of the red restrictor plate.

Good luck finding incandescent bulbs now😢

my Polaris 280 tend to stand on its nose rear wheel does not touch pool floor and tends to go in small circle. i took Polaris apart and do not see any significant problems. any help would be appreciated

Does it matter which direction the “flow” coming out of the backup valve is pointed?

Great video. This helped a lot. Thanks.

This is the BEST video ever!!!! Thank you so much for sharing! I would hire you if I could!

This was a WONDERFUL how-to video! I watched others that were terrible! Also learned about the reasons for cutting, lubricating connections, tip for bag control. Todd, people in Frisco TX are lucky to have you! We started to install by ourselves, which would have been possible except for arthritic knees, back, hands. I forwarded the video link to our pool professional for his review,and he will be here in afew days AFTER we stretch out the hose & tail in the sun.

Is it normal to not be able to screw the wall fitting in all the way? Mine sticks out about an inch I can't get it to go any deeper

Why are you putting lube on where the hose goes on the feed pipe and why would you ever pick up the sweep by the hose and throw it in the pool. I cringed watching you do that. Had to stop watching this video.

Jim Shanafelt 5/25/23 I put off for a couple of days installing my new Polaris-39 after reading the instructions. Just knew it would be very frustrating. Cool Pool People hit it out of the park. Perfect!!! Making instructional videos shouldn’t be that hard. You make your video and then run it by a few people and see where they get confused. You made my day!!!

Thank you so much for this instructional video. I was able to install my mom’s new pool sweep like a pro! I followed your instructions step by step and it worked like a charm! Thank you!

Do they make an adapter to use for an above-ground pool, someone give us one but the end piece doesn't fit?

GREAT!!!! Tutorial Thanks Sooo Much! Oh ya you were so right about the removal of the old pool fitting.

This is a pretty jack legged way of pool work. Plus he counted 4 lengths and 3 lengths... of "FEED" hose.

Wish you would've shown how to adjust the valve for the tail and the one on the wall.

Where/how do you space the weights that go on the hose?

thanks for this video. just got this model and the manual didn't cover this detail very good.

Just a thank you for doing this video. I was able to get my brand new 280 installed properly and running again 😊

Nice idea using the wear ring to hold up bag

I think it is very unlikely there will be similar blackouts in the future, the political fallout would be catastrophic. The power system has been hardened against future events. North Texas; an oven in the summer and a freezer in the winter :(

Thank you so much for the video. I followed your step by step instructions and it worked out perfectly. Also you calm demeanor relaxed me and I did not swear one time. Actually the guys at my local Leslie’s Pool Supply referred me to your video.

Hi, Could you tell me why my 280 keeps stopping and starting up and when I turn it in on there is a little jerk in the hose and then eventually start moving ? Thank you Sir

why not just winterize the pool like everyone does north of texas.. drain below skimmer, drain all equip, cover pool, relax for 2-3 months.

OMG!! Thank you soooo much for making this video. I live in Haslet, Tx. and my pool and equipment always seem to be more susceptible to freezing than my neighbors. We live in a cul de sac and we get all the wind from the north and south, depending on which way its blowing that day, across my pool. This video has been LIFE CHANGING for me. My husband always seems to be out of town when the freezing weather hits, so its me trying to keep things from freezing. I usually have to turn the breaker off and pull all the drain plugs just to keep my pool pipes from freezing, but then the top of the pool freezes because no water is circulating. For this current freeze, Jan. 29, 2023, going on now in North Texas, I have implemented your video and I am totally amazed and full of relief that I don't have to worry about anything with the pool. Yes, my husband is out of town again. lol

Hey Todd I have a Polaris 280,replaced all wheels,bearings and now it is very slow,what should I do?

Great video! I would have made a few mistakes replacing the hose assembly without viewing this. Thanks!!

Thank you for making this video. I made a shelter over my pool equipment with the pump running non-stop this week before a cold front hit. I used 3 blankets, a tarp, and a 45 Watt incandescent bulb in a fixture similar to yours. I placed a digital thermometer w/transmitter inside the shelter, and over 72 hours, the temperature inside the shelter ranged from around 55 degrees to around 48 degrees. That was with outdoor temperatures as low as 11 degrees with windy conditions. I never would have guessed a 45 Watt bulb would do the work, but it did. Thank you guys.
