Product details

The Polaris A20 is the genuine head float for the Polaris 380, 360, 280 and 180 pressure side cleaners. It is the ballast float on top of the cleaner, and it is the first part to check when a Polaris starts running on its side.

What it fixes

A cracked, waterlogged or missing head float leaves the cleaner without the buoyancy that keeps it upright, so it rolls over and stops cleaning properly. A new float puts the balance back where it belongs.

Installation

The float pushes onto the float mast and screws down. There is nothing else to it, and no tools are needed.

Questions and answers

How does it install?
Push it onto the float mast and screw it down. No tools are needed.
