Pentair Kreepy Krauly® Racer® Pressure-Side Inground Pool Cleaner | 360228
The Pentair 360228 Kreepy Krauly® Racer® is a high-performance pressure-side automatic pool cleaner designed for inground pools. It connects to a dedicated pressure line (typically powered by a booster pump) and uses strong jet-driven propulsion plus onboard filtration to pick up debris before it reaches your pool filter.
Key Features
- Pressure-side cleaning power: connects to a dedicated return/pressure line for strong, consistent movement and pickup.
- Front rotating brush: scrubs and loosens dirt for a deeper clean on pool surfaces.
- Large debris intake: built to pull in leaves and larger debris compared to many pressure cleaners.
- Onboard dual filtration canister: captures debris in the cleaner so less ends up in your pool filter.
- Forward and reverse operation: helps reduce hang-ups and improves overall coverage.
- Wide tires for traction: stable grip on common inground pool surfaces.
- LED lights: integrated lights help make nighttime cleaning more visible.
- Speed control: adjustable flow gauge helps set proper cleaner speed for your system.

Why Choose a Pressure-Side Cleaner
- Great for leafy pools and heavier debris loads
- Captures debris onboard to help reduce filter loading
- Strong propulsion for consistent coverage when properly set up
Installation Notes
- Connect the cleaner to the dedicated pressure line and submerge the hose to purge air before starting.
- Turn on the filter pump first, then the booster pump (if used) after the hose is fully primed.
- Use the flow gauge to adjust cleaner speed to the recommended range for proper coverage and reduced wear.
- For best performance, keep the pool water level correct and maintain proper circulation/filtration.

Maintenance Tips
- Empty and rinse the filter canister regularly (more often during heavy leaf season) to keep suction/intake strong.
- Check the brush, wheels, and wear parts seasonally and replace worn components to maintain traction and cleaning performance.
- If the cleaner seems too fast/too slow, recheck the flow gauge setting and confirm your booster/filter pump output is stable.
- Keep the cleaner out of direct sunlight when not in use to help extend plastic and hose life.
- Before freezing weather, remove the cleaner and drain hoses to prevent freeze damage.
