Polaris R0535800 Ultra-Fine Sand and Silt Filter Canister for Polaris Robotic Cleaners


The Polaris R0535800 Ultra-Fine Sand and Silt Filter Canister for Polaris Robotic Cleaners are a great way to pick up all of the finer dust and silt in your pool. This canister does not come with the lid/front but can fit the following cleaners made by Polaris:

Polaris ALPHA IQ+
Polaris ALPHA IQ
Polaris VRXIQ+
Polaris VRXIQ
Polaris 9650iQ Sport
Polaris P9650IQ
Polaris 9550 Sport
Polaris 9450 Sport
Polaris 9350 Sport



The manufacturer states that it will filter down to 60 microns but in my testing, it appears to filter out all of the dirt in my pool so I think it is much finer filtration but I can’t state exactly. But it is very similar to the filtration of a robotic cleaner with the paper type cartridge material and seems to solve the issue of the standard All-Purpose canister not being able to filter down the finer dirt. The factory canister included with these Polaris Cleaners the All-Purpose or General-Purpose Canister will filter down to 120-130 microns. This means the Ultra-Fine Canister has twice the filtration ability of the canister included with the unit.

Note that the lid is universal so there really is no need to purchase a second lid. I just use the lid that came with the cleaner on the Ultra-Fine Canister and it fits perfectly. Also, keep in mind since the canister material is a much finer mesh, it can tear easier if any sharp debris were to be picked up by the cleaner. This is not meant for everyday use but to supplement your cleaning to remove the finer dirt and silt that may be left behind by the standard canister. This canister will also clog up faster than the standard canister included with the cleaner, so you will need to empty it more often.

Originally this canister was standard on the Polaris 9450 Sport but too many consumers complained about the cleaner getting clogged up or having to empty the canister mid-cleaning. Polaris then switched to the current canister that filters down to 120 microns. In my opinion, I suggest running your Polaris with the standard canister and then use the Ultra-Fine Canister to do a deep cleaning of your pool. It is a solid formula and most pools are cleaned up very well by just using the included canister. In my case, I do get very fine debris in my pool vs large leaf debris so the Ultra-Fine Canister works great in my pool to pick up all of the dirt.

The reviews for the product are excellent and if you notice that there is some fine dirt and silt left behind the next day after running your Polaris cleaner in your pool, you may need to invest in the Ultra-Fine Canister. Just make sure you are purchasing the R0535800 Ultra-Fine Sand and Silt Filter Canister for Polaris Robotic Cleaners since Polaris also makes a Fine Filter Canister (R0517800).

As a side note the ALPHA IQ+ shown in this video is the best Polaris Robotic Cleaner to date. If you do purchase the cleaner shown in the video, I suggest the Ultra-Fine Canister as well.

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin...

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT...
