Question 1

Does the G3 come with hoses?

Accepted Answer

yes hoses come with - our pool 21ft wide and 42 ft long - needed to purchase extra for the cleaner to reach whole pool - however can always leave at one end one day and switch it to the other end later or next day - cleaner is a work horse!

Question 2

Can I replace a G2 with a G3 without any special modifications? Are they interchangeable?

Accepted Answer

You should be able to replace the G2 with the G3, with out problems.However, check the hose weight placement on the first hose BEHIND the G3 and check the suction at the end of the LAST hose, before attaching the G3. If you want a WONDERFUL addition, and I would HIGHLY recommend it, buy the TWISTER and add it between the first and second hose sections at the wall or basket strainer connection. It will COMPLETELY eliminate the hose curling and allow the vacuum to access ALL point of the pool. Even the STEPS!! It's wonderful!

Question 3

Do you need to buy the additional scrub disk?

Accepted Answer

I live in Florida where the cleaner runs 5-6 hours per day 365 days per year and a scrub disk last at least three years. Save your money and wait until you need a new one and you can get it cheaper buying it by itself than the cleaner with an extra scrub disk package deal.

Question 4

With variable speed pumps what rpm are you setting? I need 2000 rpm to keep this thing moving, which is way too high!

Accepted Answer

I am using a constant speed pump, 3600 RPM, and I can vary or control the flow using valves.  This device requires a moderate to high amount of flow to work consistently.  Flow is what you are interested in and that is dependent on pump shaft speed and back pressure.  These pumps are not positive displace and become very inefficient as the output pressure rises.  Your 2000 RPM pump speed sounds reasonable to me not knowing the particulars of you system layout and parameters.  I am a mechanical engineer with 50 years of experience with hydraulic machinery.
