    Default Polaris 180 convert for above ground?

    I have an Intex above ground pool 15'x48", intex 1200 gal sand filter pump, and a krystal clear salt water system.

    I was just given a Polaris 180 in ground pool cleaner. Is there anyway to convert this to work for my above ground?

    I can handle the plumbing it's the water pressure I'm concerned about.

    I cannot answer your question about the Polaris 180 being converted to use in an AG pool. Hopefully someone will come along who will know.

    Sorry -- a Polaris 180 is a great cleaner, but only usable on IN-ground pools with a separate (and expensive) booster pump. They are not functional on above-ground pools.
