The 3900 Sport is powered by the pressure provided by an independent booster pump. It features a 31' swivel pressure hose, back-up valve, an all-purpose filter bag, and rear sweep hose. The 3900 Sport connects to a dedicated pressure line via the universal wall connect, the pressure provided by the booster pump hits a large turbine, spinning a series of reduction gears, and a stainless steel chain to provide forward drive to the cleaner. The Polaris 3900 Sport has three venturi jets in its throat that create suction under the unit. This suction causes debris to get vacuumed into the filtration bag before it reaches your pump basket or filter, extending the life of your filtration system. The 3900 Sport pressure side pool cleaner is one of Polaris most powerful and durable cleaners on the market. From the Manufacturer Premium Pressure Side Automatic Pool Cleaner for In Ground pools Review: One of the best pool vac's on the market - I have to say without a doubt this is one of my better purchases. My old pool vac was not getting the job done and I needed something that woud. I have a theory that I will be sorry if I go cheap, yet I don't want to pay too much. This pool Vac was a clinch to install and get it running as designed. I have had now for almost a year and I am still amazed at how well it cleans. Could not be happier. Review: A1+ Product - 8For 30 years I used and maintained an Arneson Pool Sweep until March of this year. Parts being impossible to find and no one alive that knew how to repair them, I finally decided to cough up the big bucks and make a change. After speaking to a technical friend, with a pool, asking what he used, he said for the last 3 years he had used a 3900 Sport with no problems. Researching desertcarts reviews, I was alarmed by many of the responses. So I called Polaris' Bonnie Shaw directly at 760.230.2424 and asked her about these reviews. She informed me that when this product came out there were some technical problems that were addressed and fixed and that new units were performing as advertised. She assured me that I should have no problems as long as the current model was used. On her recommendation, and that I my friend, I purchased and installed the new unit and within 3 hours my pool was spotless and the unit worked as represented. I have a large 35,000 gallon pool in the configuration of an offset figure eight, the shallow end being shallow enough for most 5 year olds to be above water, and the diving end being 9.5 feet deep. I followed the instructions on cutting lines and measuring rotations. NO Problems and easy to do. The only adjustment I need to make is in the tail which does not sweep. I have not been able to do the complete adjustment yet, due to the temperature and rain in our area over the past few weekends. No matter, It still cleans everything but some narrow steps. To date, I am thrilled and would buy this again and will recommend it to anyone. I am over 70 and have arthritis in my back and knees and if I can do this, anyone can do this. At this point I believe that most of the bad reviews are from people who didn't read and/or use the instructions properly, or are from misleading competing products. As time goes on, I will comment on my own review, if any problems occur or if the status quo is maintained. **UPDATE ** 3 years later,, Everything running at normal...P00l spotless and the only thing I have done is replace the bag when a stick was picked up and tore the bag. I also replaced the sponge end. I can't recommend a product enough.

Not this one !!! It does the job but not the windows. Since that earlier review, I now find that it gets stuck by the steps and is eroding my pebbletech pool finish. I'm not sure why this is, but if it can't be fixed, I will have wasted over $800.00. Any ideas on this? New tire rubber, hell its only three months old! Arggg!! So I was fortunate to have Prime and as such I was able to return this inferior product and receive a refund. I purchased a Dolphin Quantum Pool cleaner by Maytronics about six weeks ago and couldn’t be happier, ( see that review ). Yes it’s $200.00 more, but without the noise and it is a serious upgrade above the Polaris ( Junk )!!! You get what you pay for !! The only problem with the Quantum was the cord getting wrapped and tangled. I ordered an upgraded cord that had a swivel which eliminated the tangles. Don’t order a Polaris, but do consider it Quantum. Great cleaner by Dolphin Industries. ## Frequently Bought Together - Polaris Vac-Sweep 3900 Sport Pressure Inground Pool Cleaner, Triple Jet Powered, with a Dual Chamber SuperBag for Debris - ATIE High Density Pool Cleaner Sweep Hose Tail Scrubber 9-100-3105 Replacement For Polaris 180 280 360 380, 3900 Sport Pool Cleaner Sweep Hose Scrubber 9-100-3105, R0522400 (6 Pack) - ATIE 3900/P39 Sports Pool Cleaner Sand and Silt Bag Replacement for Polaris 3900 Sport Pool Cleaner Great for Desert Area Pools --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2810072-polaris-vac-sweep-3900-sport-pressure-side-pool-cleaner](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2810072-polaris-vac-sweep-3900-sport-pressure-side-pool-cleaner) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-08*
