Swimming pool
cleaning- how to vacuum the pool
You will need to vacuum the
debris in your pool to help insure a clean pool. . Unless you have an
automatic pool cleaner, an
in-floor cleaning system or an automatic cover. Even then you may still
need to vacuum manually.
Roll your vacuum hose along the length of the pool. Attach one of the
cuffed ends onto your vacuum head which is attached to your telescopic
pole. Extend the pole and place the head (with the hose attached) into
the water so that it rests on the floor of the pool. Point the head
across the pool so that it doesn't roll down the slope towards the deep
end and prop the pole up against the pool's edge.
From the point where the hose surfaces, begin pushing the hose straight
down into the water, hand over hand, until you reach the other end. This
is called priming the hose. You are filling the hose up with water so
there is no air in it.
Once this is done, remove the skimmer lid and the basket. Place the hose
end into the hole at the bottom of the skimmer. You want it to suck in
tight. If it does not, you may need a threaded hose adapter to achieve a
tight fit. Now, the suction that was at the hole is now at the vacuum
head. Do not lift the head out of the water with the hose attached, or
you will fill the hose with air, losing prime, and possibly draw air
into the pump.
Roll the vacuum head on the floor, over the debris. The suction will
gradually decrease as the pump basket fills with vacuumed debris. When
the pressure gauge drops and or suction is sufficiently decreased, stop
the pump and empty the basket. If pressure rises significantly, stop the
pump and backwash the filter. Keep doing this until your pool is clean.
