    If you can isolate the return to just the cleaner or partially to the cleaner, you should have no problem at all. Your best bet is to put in the valve so you have some control of pressure and flow.

    Default Think I'll go for it... Any issues with leaving it in the pool all the time?

    Are there any issues with leaving the cleaner in the pool and running all the time (except for when swimming. Our season is usually from June through August. That would mean with 110~120 days and filter operating 12 hrs/day about 1000hrs/season.

    With only two returns, it should work (no promises!).

    I have six returns, so there are too many alternate paths for the water. I am having to put in a booster pump.
