      Don MullinsAug 28, 2025
      If the Zodiac Swimming Pool Vacuum does not stay firmly on the pool bottom, it might be due to air trapped inside. Repeat the immersion process to remove any air. Alternatively, the filter might be full or dirty, requiring cleaning or replacement. If the propeller is damaged, contact your retailer.

    What to do if my Zodiac Vortex RV5380 Swimming Pool Vacuum no longer climbs the pool walls?
    • J
      Jill SmithAug 30, 2025
      If the Zodiac Swimming Pool Vacuum is not climbing the pool walls as effectively as before, the filter may be full or clogged, requiring cleaning or replacement. Microscopic algae may also be present, necessitating shock chlorination and a slight reduction in pH. Remember to remove the appliance during shock treatment. Additionally, inspect the brushes for wear and replace them if needed, checking their rotation as well.
