When a Polaris 280 pressure-side pool cleaner is moving properly but leaving debris behind, the issue is often the debris bag—not the cleaner itself. Over time, debris bags stretch, clog, or tear, reducing water flow and limiting the cleaner’s ability to capture leaves and dirt. The Polaris K13 All-Purpose Zipper Debris Bag is a genuine OEM replacement designed to restore proper debris collection and maintain correct operating performance.

This all-purpose debris bag is engineered to balance filtration and water flow, allowing the Polaris 280 to capture common pool debris without restricting pressure. The integrated zipper closure makes emptying fast and convenient while ensuring debris stays securely contained during operation.

Replacing a worn debris bag is one of the simplest and most effective ways to restore full cleaning efficiency without unnecessary part replacements.


Maintains Proper Cleaner Flow and Debris Capture

Pressure-side cleaners rely on balanced internal flow to operate correctly. A clogged or stretched debris bag can disrupt that balance, causing reduced pickup performance or erratic movement.

The Polaris K13 debris bag is designed with mesh material that captures leaves and debris while allowing sufficient water flow to maintain cleaner speed and suction. When properly installed, it helps the Polaris 280 operate as intended, sweeping debris into the bag rather than redistributing it around the pool.

This makes it an ideal everyday replacement bag for routine pool maintenance.


Zipper Closure for Easy Maintenance

Unlike Velcro-style debris bags, the Polaris K13 features a durable zipper closure that allows quick access for emptying. This design helps reduce debris spillage and speeds up routine servicing, especially for pool owners or technicians managing frequent cleanings.

The zipper is positioned to allow controlled opening while keeping the bag securely closed during operation.


Genuine Polaris Replacement for Proper Fit

The Polaris K13 debris bag is manufactured to original Polaris specifications, ensuring correct fitment on Polaris 280 pressure-side cleaners. Using an OEM bag helps maintain proper alignment, attachment strength, and cleaner balance.

Aftermarket bags may vary in mesh density or fit, which can negatively affect performance. The K13 is designed to integrate seamlessly with the cleaner’s outlet and attachment hardware.


Why Replacing a Debris Bag Matters

A worn or clogged debris bag directly impacts cleaner performance and efficiency.

Replacing the debris bag helps:

  • Restore proper debris capture

  • Maintain correct water flow through the cleaner

  • Prevent debris from falling back into the pool

  • Improve overall cleaning consistency

Routine bag replacement helps extend the life of the cleaner and ensures reliable results.
