FAQ'S
Q. How does it work?
A. It is a simple system which uses the water pressure from a standard garden hose to create a suction and vacuum the muck.
Q. Where does the muck and waste go?
A. The muck and waste is vacuumed up the telescopic pole and discharged to waste right out the end of the discharge hose, which we provide. You can allow it to go into a bucket, or right onto the lawn, garden or a deck drain.
Q. Does it put any water into the pond?
A. No, no water goes into the pond. The water is used purely for creating the suction. However, some water will be displaced from the pond, along with the muck and waste.
Q. Will it pick up pebbles and small leaves?
A. Yes, the higher the water pressure the better the system will operate as far as sucking up small pebbles and leaves. You can place the discharge hose in a 5 gallon bucket to collect any pebbles etc to return to the pond if needed.
Q. The vac works off 50psi from my outside faucet. How can I tell if I have 50psi water pressure?
A. 50psi + is usually standard at a residence or business. You can also call your local water company. 50 PSI IS REQUIRED TO OPERATE THE VAC
Q. To what length does the telescopic pole extend?
A. Extends to 6 feet.
Q. How long and how wide is the discharge hose?
A. It comes with a 10 foot discharge hose that is 1-1/4 inches wide and there is also a hose adaptor included so that you may add additional hose lengths.
