My pool cleaner keeps getting stuck on the pool drain covers. These are the new anti-vortex style, that stick up a lot. My pool also has dual drains in parallel to avoid the trap hazard.
Do I need the anti-vortex covers since I have two drains? Interested in replacing them with flat drain covers so my pool cleaner can go over them.
Thanks!
I would stick with the anti-vortex (VGB) Compliant drains - they are safer in spite of the fact that you do have multiple drains. I would recommend something like the Polaris Unicover. it allows most cleaners to navigate over pool drains. They are not intended to be permanently installed, so it can be a little bit of a pain to keep installing and removing it, but it isn't too bad if your pool is not used much by other people.
