Before You Choose

Is the DOLPHIN ACTIVE 40 Right for Your Pool?

This model is built for pool owners who want complete surface coverage and connected controls without relying on the pool pump, skimmer or a booster system.

Best Suited For

  • Residential pools with a maximum length of approximately 50 feet.
  • Pools that need automatic floor, wall and waterline scrubbing in one cleaning cycle.
  • Owners who want Wi-Fi connectivity, app-based scheduling and selectable cleaning durations.
  • Pools that collect a mixture of leaves, routine dirt and finer suspended debris.
  • Buyers who value an anti-tangle swivel cable and an included caddy for transport and storage.

Important Considerations

  • The Active 40 is corded and requires a safely positioned electrical power supply near the pool.
  • It does not include a separate handheld remote; connected functions are managed through the app and power supply.
  • Wi-Fi performance depends on reliable network coverage where the power supply is positioned.
  • Very heavy leaf loads may require more frequent basket cleaning or multiple cleaning cycles.
  • Confirm pool surface, step design and current product configuration with Pool Place Easton before purchasing.

Setup and Performance

Common Setup and Cleaning Issues to Check

Many performance concerns can be traced to filter loading, cable placement, blocked brushes or weak Wi-Fi coverage near the power supply.

The Cleaner Is Not Climbing Consistently

Empty and rinse the filter, inspect the active brushes and tracks, and confirm the pool chemistry is balanced. A heavily loaded basket or slippery surface can reduce traction. Some step shapes, ledges and transitions may not be fully accessible to any robotic cleaner.

The Cable Is Twisting During Cleaning

Extend only the cable length needed for the pool, straighten it before use and allow the anti-tangle swivel to move freely. Store the cable loosely rather than wrapping it tightly around the caddy.

The App Will Not Connect Reliably

Check Wi-Fi signal strength where the power supply is positioned, confirm that the mobile device and cleaner are using the supported network setup, and follow the current MyDolphin™ Plus pairing instructions. The cleaner can still be started from its power supply.

Fine Debris Remains After a Cycle

Rinse the multi-layer basket thoroughly and select the cycle that matches the pool condition. Heavy sediment, algae residue or unusually large debris loads may need a second cycle and supporting water-chemistry or manual maintenance.
