Does anyone have a problem with the water forming a pool and not totally going down the drain ?

I have the exact same problem! I had 2 Blanco sinks installed and bought two waster strainers. On one sink, the water won't go down at all and yes, the strainer is completely open. On the other sink, the water goes down very, very slowly. I've tried switching the strainers to opposite sinks and still have the same problem. On the other hand, if I close the strainers, they don't hold water in the sink. It slowly leaks water until nothing is left.

I do not have a problem with my Blanco sink nor sink strainer. Is your strainer totally open?

I have been using mine regularly for about a month now and I haven't had any problems out of mine. I love it. It does a great job cleaning our pool and it is 13 feet deep on deepest end. I would purchase again.

mine seems to help because my above the ground pool is not very smooth on the bottom.

Try to adjust the amt. of water flowing into the pool. That seemed to work for us.

Ours does the same thing. It appears to be stuck but there's nothing to be stuck on. It seems to be doing the job of keeping the pool bottom fairly clean however.

I have never had this problem. I would follow Dave's advice since the directions do say you should keep the hose stretched out straight when not in use. We just run the hose along the side of the pool. We only curl up the hose when we are having guests and need to put it out of sight.

I have had the same issue, unless you need to make another right away - I have learned that if I let it sit for a bit, some of the water dissapates, this minor flaw is not terribly inconvenient but I think the holes need to be bigger on the filter.

The water does spew out even at the lowest setting. Not sure why. Our unit is fairly new. Maybe close to one year.

I have not had that problem, check that your hoses are in the correct position in and out, also make sure that the filter is filled with water.

I have never had that problem. How is your salt level? I find that for my pool size I have to run it an hour longer than suggested each day during the hot summer months here in Texas. I also use the brush very thoroughly while the pump is running at least once a week to make sure I don't get any algae growing on the walls or bottom of the pool.

I have never had an issue with that. I don't really use the ends often, but I fill the center section and I have never had a problem with water causing it to get moldy.

I have used the pump and not turned it off until there is only about an inch or two of water in the low spot where I have it sitting. The wind or sun dries the rest fairly quickly. I love mine, it has been a real joy not cleaning the pool all winter and I have checked and the water is crystal clear and not a thing in the pool pump strainer.

I have never had an issue with water but mine are not that close to my sink. You could always add a touch of silicone to prevent water to drip down. If its that close to water make sure you install a GFI receptacle to plug it into.

My hose doesn't tangle but does seem to get stuck or like one side of pool over other. I'm usually checking on mine so I direct it by maneuvering the hose in the direction I want it to go.

I have same trouble, but mine worked fine 1st. day, did you check the pool intake screen inside the hose fitting? You have to unscrew the hose fitting then see the plastic mesh (inside pool intake) where it will catch larger bugs and other debris, sometimes it will stop most all water flow until cleaned out.

I actually had this happen. Must be sure that the cover has no holes and only the more expensive covers last more than a few years in my experience, regardless of the warranty, and the covers become very porous. It should not take more than a few hours to pump any reasonable amount of water on the cover and if you think the pool is being drained you are probably right. Look carefully at the water level when you first put on the cover. I drain the pool to a specific height so have some measure. Another note of interest is that unplugging the pump will not help either if you have a lousy cover. Once the water starts flowing through the hose it acts like an artisan well to drain the pool by gravity. I actually had this happen.

Mary, when I first got my unit I had the same issue. But now it works much better once I removed a couple of the hoses. Instead of uses the full set of hose, I took two off. Try to remove one at a time until it performs better but make sure there's enough to reach the far side of the pool.
