PoolProblems Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Hi, I have a Booster pump which is used for Polaris 360 pool cleaner. It is dripping little water continuosly. I changed the O ring in it but still the problem continues. Question 1) What else could be leaking the water? 2) Could it cause air surge in my pump (I have problem with air surge and it dropping the pressure. Please help!!!

Look at the motor shaft were it enters the plastic housing to see if it is leaking. A polaris 360 is made to be used without a booster pump too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it a 360 (has a big diameter hose,380 has small diameter hose and needs a pump). they are made to use in one of the return line fittings. Depending how many you have sometimes you have to put a smaller eyeball in them. If the wheel spin 28-32 times a min the pressure is good. I do not know the long term effect if any on using a 360 with a booster pump Here is a link for a 360 manual http://63.193.50.140/dealer/pdf/TL/LP50.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
