One of the most requested features when searching for a pool robot is an anti-tangle swivel. Old pool cleaners of the past would constantly get tangled and knotted, causing a massive headache for pool owners. These tangles could only be taken out why unwinding the cord and letting it sit in the sun to hopefull fix it. This problem went on for years. But not anymore, Dolphin introduced the Anti-Tangle Swivel which allows the pool robot to move 360 degrees freely in your pool while providing a powerful vacuum and clean for your swimming pool.
My pool robot cord keeps tangling. How do I fix?
One of the most asked questions we get is, "My pool robot cord keeps tangling. How can I fix it?" The solution is simple: an Anti-Tangle Swivel.
What is an Anti-Tangle Swivel?
An Anti-Tangle Swivel is a coupling between the power cable and robot, allowing the robot to revolve without turning the cable with it - giving your pool robot the freedom to move and clean. This allows your pool robot to clean without the interruption of a tangled cord.
Why is an Anti-Tangle Swivel important?
Without one, your pool robot's power cord may get constantly kinked up and knotted. This will result in you having to unplug the unit and stretch the power cord out. If you do not have an anti-tangle swivel, every week you will usually need to leave the power cable in the sun to erase the kinks for a few hours.
