Technical Specifications
- Part Number: R201398
- Model: #196 Vacuum Head for Vinyl-Liner Pools
- Connection: Swivel hose port compatible with 1¼″ and 1½″ lines
- Shape: Triangular for enhanced corner access
- Design: Transparent (clear-view) housing for visual debris monitoring
Applications & Fitment
This vacuum head is ideal for maintenance of vinyl-liner swimming pools, especially those with corners that are difficult to clean with standard tools. Its triangular shape and clear body assist in efficient debris removal while preserving liner integrity. Confirm your pool liner style and vacuum hose size before selecting.
Installation Instructions
- Attach vacuum hose (1¼″ or 1½″) to the swivel connection and purge air from the line before operating.
- Connect the vacuum head to your telescopic pole and lower the head into the pool.
- Position the head at the pool surface, guide it across the liner floor toward corners and edges.
- Maintain gentle movement to avoid liner damage, and remove periodically to check for collected debris.
Troubleshooting
- Hose twists or kinks: Ensure the swivel connection is properly seated and compatible with your hose size.
- Reduced suction or poor cleaning coverage: Verify the vacuum head is properly weighted, and the bumper trim isn’t catching edges.
- Scratches or liner spots after use: Inspect the bumper and head frame for damage; replace if necessary to avoid liner wear.
Maintenance Tip
After each use, rinse the vacuum head thoroughly and store in shade. Inspect the bumper and swivel connection for wear regularly. Replacing or maintaining the vacuum head proactively helps preserve liner condition and supports efficient pool cleaning.
