Pentair Dorado Suction-Side Inground Pool Cleaner
The Pentair Dorado Suction-Side Pool Cleaner (360151) delivers deep-scrubbing power for inground pools. Using innovative Bristle-Drive Technology, it aggressively loosens stubborn debris while a wide vacuum path sweeps it away. Its compact design and programmed steering ensure total coverage, effortlessly navigating floors, climbing walls, and maneuvering out of tight corners for a pristine pool finish.
Key Features
- Bristle-Drive™ Scrubbers: Active bristles scrub the pool surface to remove algae and dirt that ordinary suction cleaners miss.
- SmartTrac™ Steering: Programmed navigation prevents the cleaner from getting stuck in corners or near obstacles like ladders.
- Extra-Wide Vacuum Path: A broad intake design captures more debris per pass for faster, more efficient cleaning cycles.
- Superior Wall Climbing: High-traction design allows for seamless transitions from the pool floor to the walls.
- Simple Installation: Connects to your skimmer or suction line in minutes; no booster pump required.
- Silent Operation: Engineered for ultra-quiet performance that won't disrupt your backyard environment.

Warnings and Disclaimers
- Entrapment Hazard: Suction-side cleaners can pose an entrapment risk. Do not use the pool while the cleaner is operating. Ensure your suction port is equipped with a [safety vacuum release system (SVRS)](https://www.pentair.com) if required by local code.
- Vinyl Liner Warning: If the vinyl liner is brittle or patterned, the active [Bristle-Drive scrubbers](https://www.pentair.com) may accelerate wear. Inspect your liner condition before use.
- Chemical Shock: Remove the cleaner from the pool before performing a chemical shock treatment. High chlorine levels can damage the cleaner's diaphragm and hose integrity.
- Suction Balance: Improperly balanced suction can cause the cleaner to "wheelie" or stay stuck on the floor. Use the provided [flow gauge](https://www.pentair.com) to calibrate your pump speed correctly.
?? Pro-Tips for Success
- Leaf Canister Addition: If your pool is surrounded by trees, install an [inline leaf canister](https://www.pentair.com). The Dorado has a very wide intake and can easily clog your pump basket with large debris if not intercepted first.
- Hose Memory: To prevent "hose tangling," lay the hose sections out straight in the sun for a few hours before first use to remove any "memory" coils from the packaging.
- Variable Speed Tuning: If using a [Variable Speed Pump](https://www.pentair.com), find the lowest RPM that still allows the cleaner to climb the walls. This maximizes energy savings while ensuring total pool coverage.
- Bristle Check: Flip the cleaner over monthly to check the bristles for debris (like hair or pine needles) that can reduce the scrubbing effectiveness.
