Polaris FREEDOM Plus Cordless Cleaner

The Polaris FREEDOM Plus cordless robotic cleaner provides premium cleaning capabilities with four different cleaning modes to clean everything from the floor to the waterline in 2.5 hours or less.

The FREEDOM Plus connects with the iAquaLink® app to provide specialized cleaning cycles and end of cycle notifications that let you know when cleaning is done so you can conveniently grab it at the waterline as water quickly evacuates — eliminating any heavy lifting.

The FREEDOM Plus comes with a hand-held LiFi remote to communicate with the cleaner while it’s under water— giving you the ability to start/stop cleaning, control direction and call the cleaner to the surface for lightweight, easy retrieval when it’s done.

Powered by a long-lasting lithium-ion battery, FREEDOM Plus comes with an premium outdoor Easy-Charge caddy for direct contact charging in less than 5 hours. The app allows you to check the battery's status so you know when it’s ready to clean.

To ensure thorough cleaning, FREEDOM is equipped with a one-of-a-kind Double Helix brush design that enhances debris collection by channelling dirt toward the vacuum inlet as it scrubs the surface of your pool. It also has a large, transparent filter canister that collects debris that’s easy to empty without getting your hands dirty—you simply remove, shake, and spray the debris away.

Control In Your Hands

The FREEDOM Plus comes with a hand-held remote that uses cutting-edge LiFi technology to communicate with the cleaner underwater — giving you the power to start/stop, direct movement and easily remove the cleaner by deploying the Easy Lift System with just one press of a button.

Tap & Lift Removal System

If your remote is MIA or just needs new batteries, you can still conveniently retrieve your cleaner at the waterline when cleaning is done. Simply tap the cleaner with your pool pole, prompting it to climb the wall where water quickly evacuates for lightweight handling.

Four Cleaning Modes

FREEDOM give you more choices with more cleaning modes. On-demand, manual options on the cleaner allow you to clean either the floor or floor, walls and waterline. Plus! iAquaLink® app connectivity lets you select from two additional cleaning modes: Waterline only and SMART Cycle, which calculates the optimal cleaning time for your pool so you can clean it in less time.
