When you first use your Kreepy Krauly, you might notice a white mist surrounding it. This is the calcium from your pool being efficiently removed. After a week, we suggest checking and cleaning your filter as your pool will have undergone a thorough cleanse. From then on, you can resume your regular filter cleaning routine.
The water flows from the base of the cleaner and is alternately diverted between the two drive tubes. The inertia of the water trapped in each drive tube provides the lifting and propelling motion of the cleaner, which may result in a faintly audible ‘ticking’ sound. This sound will also assist in diagnosing cleaner and system issues (including your pool pump). Please refer to your specific pool cleaner Instruction Manual’s Troubleshooting section which can be accessed here:
The key to good water quality is the filtration of all your pool water through the pool filter. Without a Kreepy Krauly the pool water is drawn only from the top of the pool. A Kreepy Krauly draws water from the bottom, top and sides of your pool ensuring circulation of pool water and improving water quality. This helps remove biological particles and fine particles that can cause your pool to look cloudy as all the water is passed through your specially designed pool filtration and sanitation system (if installed). Because your Kreepy Krauly works with your pool pump this cleaning process occurs automatically with daily cleaning cycles and may reduce your need for chemicals.

Our hose is custom made specifically for our pool cleaners; they are not a mass produced off the shelf product. They are carefully designed, then made, tested and manufactured in Australia. The hose has a unique profile that is anti-locking, with a smooth and large bore for more powerful suction, and is highly flexible and durable to allow the Kreepy Krauly unrestricted movement around your pool. Our hard-wearing hose connectors are built to last, with no parts that can snap or break. Best of all, they’re easy to install.
All Kreepy Krauly cleaners are have an inbuilt steering system, coupled with a unique Ultra Flex Hose to give the cleaner the freedom to travel all over your pool. Unfortunately, other pool cleaners when matched with a hard hose, will result in the cleaner being driven by the hose and the cleaner will spend minimal time on the pool floor where all the debris settles. VTX-7 and VTX-3 have a Crisscross Steering Pattern that will ensure your pool surface is efficiently cleaned. Sprinta Plus’ compact design is especially suited to modern architectural pools as its small construction and ‘unstickable’ steering systems ensures it turns and cleans the tightest corners. Whilst, rX-Tank is designed to traverse the whole pool, giving unmatched coverage.
A Kreepy Krauly is designed to work with your normal filter cycle. All you will have to do is clean the skimmer box (frequency dependent on leaf load), clean your pool pump filter (as per manufacturer’s instructions) and add chemicals to maintain your chemical balance.
If it isn’t safe to swim, don’t let your pool cleaner swim! When performing a shock or adding in any amount of chemicals that required you not to swim, we recommend you remove your pool cleaner. This will allow your cleaner to not be exposed to harsh chemicals and extend it working life. We also recommend you regularly check your pool chemistry and turn down any automatic dosing when your pool blanket is in use, especially in winter when the pool’s water evaporation rate is lower.
Your Kreepy Krauly uses no additional pumps or power. It is truly automatic. No lifting the system in or out. In addition to this, it will also aid in efficient filtering of your water as it draws water through the filter from the top and the bottom of your pool aiding is recirculation and directly removing biologicals matter direct to the filter.
We have a value for this. Simply use your Smart Skim included with your Kreepy Krauly system. If you do have excess vacuum and have a variable speed pump, turn down your pump speed. If you have a single speed pump, please consult your pool professional.
