I have an inground pool and recently blew out my skimmer and lines but could not get my Polaris cleaner line to blow, I am not sure whether I am doing something wrong, can someone give me some guidance?

Hi and welcome!

I am not familiar with that type of Polaris cleaner. It sounds like there is a one-way valve and you need to blow it from the opposite end. But I'm just guessing.

Thanks, I have a Polaris 180 with a booster pump. The booster pump has a line with a closing valve coming from the filter, and then a line from the booster pump underground into the pool which connects to the Polaris when in use. I have blown out the skimmer and the two pressure lines, but not the cleaner line. I removed the plug from the front of the booster pump closed the valve coming from the filter and tried blowing that line through there but I did not get any air in the pool.
