B. Pool Connections
The Polaris 360 comes equipped to connect to a
1-1/2" female pipe fitting on a dedicated return
line. An adjustable valve and pressure gauge
should be installed to allow you to adjust the
water flow to the Polaris. For further information,

If the pool doesn’t have a dedicated return line,
you may be able to connect the Polaris 360 to
one of the other return lines using a special
adapter kit. The following is a list of the adapter
kits available for purchase at your participating
Polaris dealer. All of the kits connect to plastic
pipe only.
