The Zodiac CX20 Robotic Pool Cleaner is expertly engineered to tackle any tiled pool with precision, combining powerful technology with a seamless user experience. Designed to deliver consistent, thorough cleaning across various pool shapes and tiled surfaces, this model brings exceptional results with minimal input from you.

With the CX20 working independently of your pool’s filtration system, you can save on energy costs while enjoying a pristine pool. Its long 15-meter power cord is ideal for medium to large pools, and its user-friendly design ensures simple operation, storage, and transport.

This version is equipped with PVA Scrubber Brushes that are ideal for Tiled Pools.

Available exclusively from Pool & Spa Warehouse

Zodiac's CX20 is one of Australia's best-selling pool cleaners. It is a modern product that has been recently introduced to the market and will enjoy many years of support. In 2018 it was made exclusively available from Pool & Spa Warehouse, Australia's fastest-growing independent retailer of pool equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I correctly submerge the CX20 before starting a cleaning cycle?
Hold the cleaner vertically in the water and gently move it side to side to release trapped air. Wait until all bubbles stop, then let it sink to the pool floor. Ensure it is fully submerged before switching it on.
What do the Information LED flash codes (1, 2, or 3 flashes) mean?
One flash means the floating cable is not properly connected to the control box. Two flashes indicate the wheels or brushes may be jammed. Three flashes suggest the pump or propeller is obstructed, or the filter is dirty. Correct the issue and restart a cleaning cycle. If the issue continues, contact us.
What should I do if the CX20 doesn’t move after I press Start?
Check that the power outlet is working, ensure the control box is on, confirm the cleaner is fully submerged, and verify the floating cable is securely connected. If needed, turn the unit off for 20 seconds and start a new cycle. If the issue persists, contact us.
Why isn’t my CX20 climbing walls or reaching the waterline in a tiled pool?
For tiles, ensure the PVA scrubber brushes are fully saturated (primed) and the Surface Control System (SCS) is set to the highest grip level. Clean the filter, check brush wear, and ensure there is no algae or scale on the tiles that could reduce traction.
How do I choose the right Surface Control System (SCS) setting for tiled surfaces?
Use the highest grip setting for tiles. If the cleaner climbs too aggressively and draws air at the waterline, reduce one level. The LEDs on the control box show the active grip level.
Why is the cleaner sucking air at the waterline?
The SCS setting may be too high for your tile finish, causing the cleaner to climb too quickly. Reduce the setting until it reaches the waterline without ingesting air.
Why doesn’t the cleaner stay firmly on the pool floor?
Air may still be trapped inside the cleaner, or the filter canister may be full or clogged. Remove the unit, re-submerge to release all air, and clean the filter before restarting. For improved filter performance, use a dedicated filter cleaner such as Madimack Robotic Filter Cleaner.
Can I leave the CX20 in the pool between cleaning cycles?
No. Remove the cleaner after each cycle, rinse it, and store it out of direct sunlight and weather to extend service life and protect the PVA brushes.
Is it safe to swim while the CX20 is operating?
No. Do not enter the pool while the robotic cleaner is running.
Why is fine dust still present after cleaning, and when should I use the optional 100-micron filter?
Use the optional 100-micron canister for fine dust or sand commonly seen on tiled surfaces. On very smooth tiles this finer filter can reduce wall-climbing performance; switch back to the 200-micron canister once the fine dust is cleared.
How do I prevent or fix floating-cable tangling, and how much cable should be in the water?
Use only the cable length needed for the cleaner to reach all areas of the pool. Spread the cable over the surface and avoid leaving coils in the water. After each cycle, unplug and remove twists starting from the cleaner head.
What should I do if the wheels or brushes are jammed with debris?
Remove the cleaner from the pool and check for obstructions around wheels, tracks, and PVA brushes. Clear debris and restart a cycle. If components are worn or damaged, see Zodiac CX20 spare parts.
How often should I clean the filter canister, and what’s the correct method?
Clean the canister after every cycle. Use the Push ’n’ Go handle to remove it, open the lid, and rinse both the canister and lid thoroughly with clean water. Periodically treat the canister with a filter cleaner such as Madimack Robotic Filter Cleaner to remove oils and grime.
Is the CX20 safe for vinyl-liner pools?
This tiled-pool version is optimised for tiles. While robotic cleaners can operate in vinyl pools, some vinyl patterns are prone to cosmetic wear or marking from contact with equipment; such issues are not covered under warranty.
Should I remove the cleaner before adding chemicals or performing a shock treatment?
Yes. Always remove the cleaner from the pool before adding chemicals and do not operate or leave it in the water during shock chlorination.
Why can’t I use an extension cord, and why must the control box be 3.5 m from the pool edge?
Extension cords can compromise electrical safety and the appliance’s rating. Keeping the control box at least 3.5 m from the pool reduces risk of water contact and meets Australian electrical safety requirements.
What’s the safest way to lift the cleaner out of the pool?
Pull the cleaner close using the cable, then lift it using the handle only. Allow water to drain before fully removing it. Do not lift the unit by the cable.
Is this CX20 model suitable only for tiled pools, and how does it differ from the standard version?
This version is optimised for tiles with PVA scrubber brushes and high-grip wall performance. It can operate in other pool types, but for non-tiled surfaces the standard CX20 is recommended.
Can I store the CX20 in direct sunlight or leave it outside?
No. Store the cleaner and control box in a shaded, dry area to avoid UV and weather damage, which can reduce the lifespan of plastics, tracks, cable, and PVA brushes.
