Do you have any experience with the PRP ability to suck these little buggers up and not get clogged/damaged?

    Thanks!

    Hi Cary, We have an oak tree, but its no where near the pool. How'ever, we do get those acorns and the PRP sucks those up into the bag. PRP has 2 type of bags. One for leafs, trash, bulky crap in the pool that will store more junk in it, then you got the Mico-filter bag, which is a fine bag that keeps the fine dirt that is in the pool. Both bags will pick up the same ca-ca in the pool . PRP will not get clogged. Everythings sucks into the bag diretly from the suction vents to the bag. That technology is great.

    Oh the bags are reuseable. Just dump dirt, clean bag w/ hose and woo-lah its clean.

    Just a side note, if you want a cleaner to climb the walls, check out the AquaJet. It cost little bit more, but does go streight up the wall. As for me, I will use my pole and brush about once a week for the walls. I never see dirt on them. As long as you keep the PRP running daily, you will not get dirt in corners or walls. As I say, it does a wonderful job.
