• Check to ensure that the main drain and all suction lines are closed, except for the suction line to which Kreepy Krauly is attached.
• Check for debris in the filter or pump basket.
• Check for debris in Kreepy Krauly’s flapper. Debris may prevent flapper movement or restrict flow.
• Pool pump and filter system may be too small (incapable of providing 25 gallons per minute water flow).

• If Kreepy Krauly stays in one end of the pool:
• Check the return line water flow and redirect as necessary with an eyeball diverter.
• Check that hose is long enough to reach to end of pool.
• Check that Kreepy Krauly has proper hose balance.

• If Kreepy Krauly stays on the main drain:
• Check to ensure that main drain is closed. A pool professional may need to assist you.
• Check to ensure that a main drain grate is installed.
• If main drain is not flush with the pool floor, consult your pool professional.

• If Kreepy Krauly slows or stops and air bubbles enter the pool at the return line:
• Find and correct the air leak that is causing the pump to lose its prime.
• Check the hose to ensure there are no leaks.
• Check the vacuum connection. It should be submerged so no air enters the system.
• Check the pump basket lid for looseness, cracks, and worn or missing O-rings.
