I am looking for an affordable pool vacuum and not sure how to buy. I bought one which had great reviews at a big box store, but I am not having the same experience as the posters. The vaccum I have is like attempting to vacuum the beach with a Swiffer wet jet. It just is not doing a good job.
I have a 15x30 pool. I need something with a long enough pole, because I cannot reach the deep end and one that has a large enough “spout” or whatever its called to vacuum quickly, not one with a small hole for vacuuming that takes long because it only cleans a small spot at a time. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Hi Diamond,
Could you answer the following questions so we can suggest the best vacuum for you.
- Is your pool an in-ground or an above ground pool?
- Are you looking for a manual vac meaning you attach the vac to a pole and you do the vacuuming or do you want an automatic cleaner where you plug the cleaner into your skimmer and it automatically goes around the pool?
- Is your pool a vinyl liner, concrete of fiberglass pool?
Hi Patrick, it is an in gound pool, I do not know how to plug into the skimmer so a manual vac will work. I have no idea if the pool is vinyl, concrete or fiberglass. How would I know?
Sorry, I am new to having a pool and had a pool company taking care of maintenance until a couple of weeks ago. I am looking to maintain myself going forward, if possible.
Hi Diamond,
I would suggest this Pool Vac Head as we have had very good success with it, you will also need this Telescopic Pool Pole.
