Frequently asked questions
Does The VacDaddy® Work For All Pools? Gunite, Fiberglass, Vinyl?
The VacDaddy® is a pool vacuum pump, not a vacuum head. It fits any standard pool vacuum head and mounts onto any standard telescoping pool pole, making it suitable for all types of pool surfaces. For concrete or fiberglass pools, use a gunite vacuum head with adjustable wheels set low to raise the head or a vacuum head with lower wheels for more clearance. For vinyl pools, use a vinyl vacuum head that rides on brushes to avoid tracks. The VacDaddy® has powerful suction, so it is recommended to remove or cut approximately half of the brushes to allow better water and debris flow.
How Does It Work For Open Vacs To Vacuum Waste?
The VacDaddy®'s vacuum to waste (V2W) attachment lets you connect a vacuum hose to eject water, silt, mud, and fine debris completely out of the pool. While this will lower the water level somewhat, it's the most effective method for removing fine silt, mud, dust, or sand that can pass through portable vacuum bags. The V2W is a unique feature of The VacDaddy® that no other portable pool vacuum system offers.
The Bag Seems Really Small. How Often Do I Need To Clean It?
The VacDaddy® is a compact, lightweight canister vacuum cleaner, similar to a home vacuum, requiring regular emptying based on pool debris. It's designed for weekly or more frequent pool cleaning. Ideal for pools in wooded areas, it efficiently sucks up all sizes of leaves, limited only by the vacuum head opening. When cleaning a leafy pool, the bag may fill quickly. The VacDaddy® is designed for quick maintenance, taking under a minute to clean the filter bag and skirt. Just twist off the lid, empty the bag, replace it, and resume vacuuming. This system also features the unique vacuum to waste (V2W) attachment for efficiently removing fine debris and lowering water levels slightly.
How Often Do You Have To Charge The Battery?
You don’t! No more trickle chargers or waiting over night for the pool vacuum to charge! The Vacdaddy® operates on a 220V transformer able to be used nationally and internationally. Simply Plug It in and Just Vac It!
