That is the question of the swimming season: How and how often should I vacuum my pool?
The answer: vacuuming every time that you think should be done. Normally, once a week is sufficient. In general, the more you use a swimming pool, need to suck less. It 'pretty simple. Many pool owners enjoy sucking on a nice sunny summer morning. Many of our customers use a good automatic pool cleaner, to do this job for them. However, a good manual vacuum is good to do onceeach month.
The "how" is essentially the same for both ground and above ground swimming pools:
1 If your pool is equipped, make sure that the valve in the suction line, which is the pump to the port (either skimmer or intake manifold lower) selected is empty.
2 Connect the vacuum hose to the head (the piece with the brushes or rollers on it). To prevent the vacuum cleaner hose with a better quality end of the swivel hose tangling come. Be sure that this is theThe end of the vac head is attached when the system will pull air and do not work properly.
3 Make sure the pipe is safe (even with a hose if necessary) and that the inlet is firmly attached to the barrel.
4 Insert the suction tube and pole in the deep part of the pool (make sure one end of the rod is sticking out of the water!)
5 Resume the un-attached end of the vacuum cleaner hose and keep it in front of a water taps. This will fill the tube with waterand the link with the pump with the air from the tube. You know you have enough water in the tube when the vacuum head bubbles to the surface of the bath water.
6 Put your hand on the end of the pipe to keep the water
7 Place the skimmer adapter (looks like a disk with a nozzle up) on top of the skimmer basket. Always use a basket to put prevent possible depletion of a large object in front of the skimmer or in the subway.
8 IfAspiration with a lower intake or a leased line to vacuum without the cage (rather than through the skimmer), use a leaf trap to prevent clogging of pipes or tubes.
9 Once you have the tube positioned on the adapter you will probably notice a sudden drop of the filter. This is normal. The filter system is just readjusting itself to the change in suction. Leave a long time for about 30 to 90 seconds. It should automatically bleed the air out of his system and return toNormal operation. You hear the sound again and again "normal".
10 Vacuum away! Remember to brush and vacuum the bottom and sides of the pool. The formation of dirt, algae and biofilm will settle there. And do not forget behind every staircase.
Troubleshooting:
No suction - Both the pipe came to the basket, the filter has its peak (do not absorb water) or a leak in the pipe (make sure you have the right end of the hose on the vac head) is lost. Read moreas a suction line, be sure that you are drawing from the correct one.
Polluted water back into the pool - If you have a sand filter, not BACKWASH vacuum dust filter. Shake the sand and surf prevents good trapping of dirt for several hours. In a cartridge or DE filter, this rarely happens.
Aspiration is lost after a few minutes - How dirty is the pool? If it is really dirty, could aspire to be better directed to waste (sand filter) or else the vacuumdirectly from the pool, bypassing the filter.
