    GREAT video - cool time lapse - awesome results. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and the level of detail you provide. I have been using a Polaris 165 - sometimes I love it - sometimes I hate it. In the year since you made this video, has the Dolphin continued to perform as expected?

    Hi thanks for your helpful videos I watch yours the most, 2nd year owning my pool, still learning as I go! I bought the Dolphin robot cleaner to us this year because last summer, all I did was scrub and vacuum every time I had a day off instead of enjoying my pool. My question is this, when I was reading directions for the product and the warning label it says do not use an extension cord for any reason what so ever. But, I have to use an extension cord or my robot will not reach my pool it’s away from the house a bit and the plug in is to. I don’t want to send it back but what do you think I should do. I have a very good and expensive outdoor extension cord from Lowes that’s top of line safety code and a outdoor surge protector as well. Do you think that would be ok?

    • @DIYJIM
      @DIYJIM  2 роки тому

      That sounds like what I would do. I’m sure it will be okay.

    Now I do need to be one of the first ones to comment haha. So a cool tip is that when you put the basket in the dolphin, you don’t need to hold the handle down and then close the lid. It’s a self closing so you just close the lid and it’ll automatically put down the handle. Nothing too like for purpose but just so you know.

    How many times should I vacuum my pool with the robotic vacuum?

    • @DIYJIM
      @DIYJIM  Рік тому +1

      I depends on how dirty your pool is. If people swim in it a lot you probably won’t have to use it as much. I use mine maybe once a week.
