Identify the cleaner family (suction, pressure, robotic, or in-floor) before changing parts or settings.
- ✕Do not use a manual from the wrong cleaner family
- ✕Do not assume one cleaner type can do all debris loads
- ✕Do not force a cleaner on a pad that cannot support it hydraulically

Cleaner Family Guides
Use family-specific troubleshooting branches for suction, pressure-side, robotic, and in-floor cleaners instead of forcing one cleaner playbook onto every pad.
Identify the cleaner family and the real debris problem
The first branch is family selection, not parts ordering.
Tune suction-side cleaners
Suction cleaners share flow with the filtration system.
Tune pressure-side cleaners
Pressure-side cleaners depend on a pressure source and the right plumbing path.
Tune robotic cleaners
Robotic cleaners have their own power, filtration, and storage needs.
Handle in-floor systems by their own documentation
In-floor cleaning is a valve and head system, not a generic cleaner.
