Hi All, vacuuming is necessary, but the best way to get crystal clear water is to dump in chlorine shock once a week. I use this: Clorine Shock - amzn.to/45jG8xh Hope it helps, thanks

How long do you leave your filter on when you put the shock in?

Best explanation I’ve found yet! Would this method work after using floc too? Or would it escape thru the netting?

I live in the desert so I have sand and dust at the bottom. It does not get picked up with that net. Is there a way to hook up a vacuum system to the pump to clean sand or dirt

@alainahd Ай бұрын

Wondering same thing

You need to get an adapted that attaches to your pool and set the filter to drain.

@gentlelioness814 25 күн бұрын

You can attach a skimmer sock to it and it will catch the fine debris

Will it pick up dead algi?

@NoVanity. 15 күн бұрын

@@thecallow2381 the best way to pick up algae would be to use the other pool vacuum instead of the water hose vacuum

@jayt7013 22 күн бұрын

Is there a way to do it by actually attaching it to the pool filter so the pool sand filter itself vacuums the debris? Would be more convenient so you don’t have to readjust pH alkalinity and chlorine levels from adding garden hose water

@PracticalMechanic 21 күн бұрын

Yes, you can get an adapter that attaches a hose to the D port (drain), then to your vacuum. Then set the pool pump to the drain setting. Then it's using pool water to vacuum with. Good luck 👍

@toothpick9539 6 ай бұрын

Can you show what setting it is that you put the pump on to vacuum with.

@DecalBomb777 2 ай бұрын

he used a garden hose..not the pool pump.

@Danielkerren 2 ай бұрын

Using a garden hose does not mean he didnt use the pump to push water through the vaccumcleaner 😂

@@Danielkerren you turn your garden hose on. That's the water source. Does not attach to filter system in any way. You could use this in a small kiddy pool.

Should i drain water from my pool before i start

No, that's not necessary. It is used underwater.

Probably need a finer mesh filter for that.

Yes, with this type of vacuum, water is added to the pool.

Any chemical needed for pool ?

@PracticalMechanic 3 ай бұрын

Yeah, there are test strips you can use to determine what chemicals you will need to add. For example, usually chlorine is required. Test Strips - amzn.to/49QM2au

Quick question can I hook up 2 quick connects one to the tool the other to port D with the quick connect nipple. Switch the pump to backwash and just reuse the pool water to cycle the debris into the vacuum net?

@PracticalMechanic Ай бұрын

Yeah, I don't see why they wouldn't work. Let us know how it goes!
