Polaris P40 Pressure Side Cleaner
The
Polaris P40 is the sister cleaner to the Polaris Quattro Sport and it
is the first real update of the Polaris Pressure Side Cleaner in over 40
years. Over the years Polaris has tweaked the design of the Polaris by changing
the drive from a drive shaft to a belt and then to a chain, but the basic
3-wheel design stayed the same. The Polaris P40 is a huge leap forward in
Pressure Side Cleaners.
The
P40 is sold exclusively at Leslie’s Pool Supplies and is backed by Leslie’s 2
year warranty program. They offer rebates at the beginning of each season and
typically it is $200 off the retail price, making the price of the P40 very
reasonable. You are getting a lot of cleaner when you invest in the P40.
There
is a lot to like about the new P40 including the sleek design of the cleaner.
With the internal debris canister, the cleaner looks very clean as it works its
way around the pool. No more unsightly debris bag full of dirt and leaves on
top. The four-wheel compact design also allows the cleaner to clean the entire
pool including the floors, walls and the waterline. This is the only
Pressure Cleaner that can do this.
Here
are some of the great new features of the P40:
Active
Brushing
Equipped
with rotating brushes that actively scrub and scour floors, walls and the
waterline —P40 penetrates deep to remove fine, stuck-on debris.
Aggressive
Wall Climbing
P40
boasts 4WD agility, enabling unmatched climbing to ensure superior cleaning
from floor to waterline.
Dual-Stage
Filtration
From
leaves and acorns to sand and silt, the dual-stage filtration system collects
both large debris and fine particulates.
Large
Easy-Clean Debris Canister
P40
replaces the customary filter bag with a large capacity easy-clean debris
canister and transparent window — allowing users to see when the canister is
full, so they can simply remove, shake, and spray the canister clean.
Multi-Directional
Navigation
Engineered
to turn on a dime, its innovative navigation technology ensures quick,
efficient and complete cleaning coverage for the entire pool.
Looking
at the Polaris P40, you will see a great combination of Polaris/Zodiac
technology. It has a scrubbing brush on the front just like a robotic pool
cleaner and a canister debris chamber taken right from their robotic cleaner
line. Then you have the scrubbing assembly of the MX-8 Elite cleaner to give
the P40 better traction on the walls and floor.
Instead
of an external back-up valve, the P40 features an internal Directional Control
Device that spins the cleaner out of the corner and step areas. This is also
taken from the MX-8 Elite cleaner. The cleaning time and pattern are much
tighter without the 30 second back up cycle every 2 minutes which means the
P40 can run for a shorter time and clean a pool much more effectively.
Combine
all of this with the large debris opening and 3 Venturi of the Polaris Pressure
Cleaners and you have the most innovative cleaner on the market today.
The
Polaris P40 requires a separate booster pump installed in the equipment area.
If you are upgrading from an existing Pressure Side Cleaner the P40 will work
fine as it uses the same wall adapter and booster pump as your old cleaner. The
Polaris P40 is sold only at your local pool store or you can purchase it from
your local pool service provider. It is not sold online.
