Hayward Trivac 700 Pool Cleaner Not Working?

If you're experiencing issues with your Hayward Trivac 700 pool equipment, you're not alone. Many users have faced similar challenges and have shared their experiences to help others troubleshoot and resolve these problems.

  1. My Trivac 700 is brand new, when I set to top mode it will skim about 6 feet then go to the bottom and will not come back up and continue skimming the top. The pressure is correct the bag is clean. In bottom mode it will sometime flip upside down and again the pressure is as recommended and the bag is empty. Any idea what I can do to correct these problems would be greatly appreciated.
