What happens if my Polaris 3900 Sport isn’t working right?

One of the great things about the Polaris 3900 Sport is that if your machine isn’t working properly, you can read the instruction manual and see if you can trouble shoot the problem with some of the examples the company provides. If you do not see any examples that fit your problem, you can call customer service. If your Polaris 3900 Sport is still under warranty, you can find the nearest authorized repair shop and have it fixed there. Make sure that you read the warranty and understand what is covered under the warranty.

What if my Polaris 3900 Sport is not running fast enough?

The Polaris 3900 Sport is recommended to operate from 30 to 36 rotations per minute. To check to make sure the machine is doing so, you simply check the rpm’s. You will have to mark the single wheel side tire and then turn on the pump while holding the cleaner in the water for about one minute. Then count the rotations in the minute and see what you have. If the cleaner is not operating properly then you can adjust it. You may be running too slow or even too fast. If you need to make the proper adjustments on page 11 of the online manual it will give you step by step instructions on how to pick up the rotations or lower the rotations. Polaris ensures that they give you the information necessary to make sure that the swimming pool cleaner is working right every time.

Can I leave my Polaris out when I am not using it?

The Polaris 3900 Sport should be not left out in the direct sunlight. When you are not using the Polaris 3900 Sport, you should keep it off to the side, the hose on these cleaners are a bit long so to avoid a safety hazard around the swimming pool, it is a good idea to keep it stored safely. At the end of the swimming pool season, you should make sure that all of the water is drained from the system. The Polaris 3900 Sport is a great automatic swimming pool cleaner. You will need a booster pump to run the cleaner but the booster pump is what makes this cleaner stand out. The other cleaners that rely on the circulation of the pool water may not get the swimming pool clean as a cleaner that uses a booster pump. The booster pumps of today are more energy efficient so you can even save money by using the Polaris 3900 Sport.

The Sport is just one of the great products made by Polaris. If you are looking to spend more time in the swimming pool rather than cleaning it, the Polaris 3900 Sport is just what you need to get the job done. You can find Polaris and genuine Polaris Parts online or at your local distributor, which you can find on the Polaris website. Make sure you read the warranty and instruction manuals before attempting to assemble the Polaris 3900 Sport. When you buy Polaris you are making a good investment.
