Introducing the Hayward Phantom™, designed to totally clean the pool’s bottom, walls and steps and automatically rise to skim debris from the top of the water.
No Debris Is Out of Reach
![[Photo - Phantom]](http://www.poolmerchants.com/media/phantom_4d50_blue.jpg "[Photo - Phantom]") The Phantom features a world of advanced technologies for added convenience and unmatched cleaning performance. Not only does it clean the bottom and sides of your pool, it automatically rises to skim the pool's surface. In auto mode, Phantom cleans the bottom and sides for approximately 13 minutes, and then the surface for seven minutes – repeating the cycle until your pool is amazingly, totally clean. The average pool can be completely cleaned in under three hours. You can also set Phantom to clean bottom only or top only. It’s a custom-made clean that only the Phantom can deliver |
