The Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 pressure-side pool cleaner works in all in-ground pools and requires a booster pump. It is powered by double jets, providing greater vacuum power and faster cleaning (3 hours or less). The Polaris 280 easily connects to a dedicated pressure line and sweeps, scrubs, and vacuums all surfaces of the pool. The pressure cleaner is equipped with a single chamber filter bag where it captures large debris such as leaves, acorns, pebbles, and other small to large debris. Its unique filter bag removes debris before it reaches your pump basket or filter, prolonging the life of your filtration system. The 280 requires a separately available booster pump, such as the PB4-60. Polaris pressure pumps are specifically designed to operate your cleaner at optimum cleaning efficiency. The compact, rugged design allows for maximum performance.What's in the Box280 Pressure-side pool cleaner; 31-foot hose kit; single chamber filter bag; and operating instructionsAbout PolarisPolaris cleaners are the number one recognized brand of pool cleaners worldwide and have enjoyed 40 years as the top selling pressure pool cleaner.

We loved how easy it was to schedule cleaning and always thought it did a good job until recently. We repurchased the exact same item and our pool is beautifully clean again! This cleaner saves us the cost of hiring a pool cleaning service. It’s simple to use and does a great job. Even if we have to repurchase every 3 treats or so, we feel it is well worth the money. Review: Cleans efficiently - Working as expected. Instructions for assembly of hoses and cutting to length are easy to follow. This unit replaced an older model so I could compare hose lengths before snipping. ## Features - CLEANS IN 3 HOURS: Powered by a separate Polaris booster pump, dual venturi jets create strong vacuum power to reliably clean any in ground pool in 3 hours or less. - FOR IN-GROUND POOLS: Safe for all pool shapes and surfaces including vinyl, fiberglass, gunite, pebble, & tile. - Complete Coverage: The Vac Sweep 280 moves fluidly as it sweeps & scrubs the floor and walls of your pool- while its large 2.25" inlet picks up large debris other cleaner types can't. - CAPTURES LARGE DEBRIS: The pressure cleaner is equipped with a single chamber filter bag that captures small and large debris such as leaves, acorns, pebbles, and more. - WHAT'S INCLUDED: Polaris Vac Sweep 280 Pressure-Side Pool Cleaner, 31-feet of feed hose, & single chamber filter bag for capturing all types of common pool debris ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002HRET6A | | Battery Description | Battery Powered | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,856 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #1 in Pressure Pool Cleaners | | Brand Name | Polaris | | Color | white | | Control Method | Touch | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (5,330) | | Efficiency | faster cleaning, greater vacuum power | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00738919003705 | | Hose Length | 31 Feet | | Included Components | Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 Pressure Side Pool Cleaner, 280 Model | | Installation Type | Professional installation | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 23"L x 20"W x 10"H | | Item Type Name | Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 Pressure Side Pool Cleaner | | Item Weight | 6.2 Pounds | | Load Capacity | 5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Fluidra | | Manufacturer Part Number | F5 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Warranted against manufacturer's defects for 1 year | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 Pressure Side Pool Cleaner | | Model Number | F5 | | Number of Batteries | Lithium Ion batteries required. | | Other Special Features of the Product | Faster Cleaning | | Required Assembly | No | | UPC | 682428268264 753956520237 852669621351 738919003705 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Type | Limited | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Polaris - **Color:** white - **Material:** Plastic - **Model Name:** Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 Pressure Side Pool Cleaner - **Product Dimensions:** 23"L x 20"W x 10"H ## Images ![Vac-Sweep 280 Pressure-Side In-ground Pool Cleaner, Double Venturi Jet Powered, 31ft of Hose with an All Purpose Debris Bag - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815E1E+XPaL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what comes with the F5 Polaris vac-Sweep 280 for $419.84** A: A new attachment for pool wall, 30' of tubing with floats attached, check valve for movement reversal, and of course the 280 and debri trap. Basically if you had one before you just plug this one in. Great deal. **Q: Does the 360 come with the fatter hose?** A: Yes, the large hose is shipped in the package. **Q: The line coming from the side of the pool to the Polaris 280 will shoot out water from the booster pump correct? Like a turned on water hose.** A: Yes Correct **Q: I have a 280, which is about to go into nether-nether land. Will the 360 connection fit into the original 280 opening on the pool wall?** A: The 360 will not work in your situation. If you have a 180, 280 or 380 then you have a booster pump and the 360 model is designed to be used is systems that do not have a booster pump. It will mount up the same but it will not work correctly and will be a nightmare to maintain. The plumbing on the pool would have to be changed and I don't see any reason anybody would do that to make an inferior cleaner work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pool cleaner *by T***D on February 15, 2026* We’ve had our independence pool for about 2 1/2 years, and this pool cleaner was what came with the pool.
