Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I get in touch with warranty about my cleaner?

Call us at (201)-465-4220 ext. 2. Please Leave a Voicemail with your Name and Number. During Peak Pool Season, we receive a superfluous influx of calls. Our Service Team will call you back in the order/que of which the voicemail is received. We offer extended hours and try to be as flexible to your schedule, including weekend availability, during the summer. We recommend being prepared for the call back from us with the information listed to the right of this question.

  • What do I need for Warranty Eligibility?

In order for us to qualify your warranty eligibility, we will request a copy of your receipt from your original sale. Do not have that available? The store you bought it from can email you a copy! We need this in every warranty claim.

You do not need to know beforehand, but identifying which cleaner model of ours you have will assist in making the process move more quickly. You can browse the "Cleaners" section of our website to identify the cleaner that is most similar to your model (although colors and names may vary).

  • How long does the warranty process take?

After leaving a Voicemail, you can expect a call back from one of our representatives within 24 Hours. Once on the phone with us, you will have a diagnosis and text message from us before even hanging up the phone. Typically, we will have a tracking number for your replacement part texted to you within that same day of diagnosis after receiving a copy of your receipt.

  • Where can I buy more product from 8Streme?

We have multiple dealers around the Country. Feel free to use our "Contact Us" form to find the nearest location to you. We also have a couple of online dealers we could send to you as well. Just give us a call or send us a message through "Contact Us."

The Most Common Cause of Malfunction:

Our cleaners that come with a Diagnostic Swivel have specific connection paths. As seen in this video, the cords should be connected based on color (blue side to blue cord, black side to black cord). Make sure to connect the cords within the correct shaping of the port. We often see robots come to us in service that have been compromised due to forcing the connections in the wrong way. This leads to improper connections and room for water damage. Make sure to remove the waterproof jacket, plug in the cord, then reapply the waterproof jacket and screw on the top securely.
