Why my Zodiac Vortex GV 33 Swimming Pool Vacuum does not climb the pool sides?
- J
  John RossAug 19, 2025
  If your Zodiac Swimming Pool Vacuum isn't climbing the pool sides as well as it used to, several factors could be responsible: * The filter may be full or clogged. Clean it with fresh water, or use an acid solution like spirit vinegar if it's severely blocked. Consider replacing the filter if necessary. * The tires may be worn and need replacement. * Microscopic algae might be present in your pool, even if the water looks clear. Perform shock chlorination and slightly reduce the pH, but remember to remove the appliance from the water during this treatment. * Worn brushes can also cause this issue. Check the wear indicators, rotate the brushes, and replace them if needed.

  Dr. James KeySep 1, 2025
  If your Zodiac Swimming Pool Vacuum's discharge nozzles or bottom plug holes become blocked, stop the filter pump and start a new cleaning cycle. Also, position the control box halfway along the pool's length, following safety guidelines. If cleaning remains suboptimal, try adjusting the locations of the control box and the point where the cleaner enters the pool.
