Thanks.

Thanks. Would it only pick up tiny stuff? About the biggest thing that ever makes it to the bottom here is part of a leaf.

Was looking at some from that company, looks like they have one that's around $130 too, but not sure what's different between that one and yours yet.

I think I've had enough of the hook up to your hose vacuum and want to get a not terribly expensive cordless one that actually sucks up and traps the dirt inside rather than just blowing most of it around through the net. Any recommendations, or ones to avoid, in the $100ish or less range?

Definitely been trying to get the leaves off it as much as possible. Sounds like we might have the same one maybe, mines black with the holes and an almost worthless draw string to tighten it 😂

Yeah, maybe the holes are there to balance it out like you said. Never drained any water from it, so maybe I'm alright here. Guess the water on top mixing with the pool water through the holes isn't a huge concern?

Cover came with them, almost looks like they used a hole punch every once in a while as they're real clean factory made circles.

Ok, so will have to pull it up by the holes to de-moat it

more like a cheap submersible fountain pump I already had which would slowly suck all the water out of the moat if i threw it in there.

Here's pictures from someone in a post I had of what you can buy to plug the 3 spots. The ones I ended up with looked fatter that those ones though fwiw. Try a local pool store or a hardware store to pick them up if you're in a hurry, or Amazon. Just did this myself and didn't drain any water...

Hey everybody. Had two questions that have been bugging me. 1) How much water on top of a cover in the moat created by a winter pillow is safe? Nothing's froze here yet but getting there, but rain water is building up on top. 2) The cover I have has what I'd say are hole puncher sized holes in...

Thanks for all the help everyone!

Kudos to whoever screwed that on in the first place, was super tight, almost too tight. Finally got it off, took the plug off the outside, finally got it just right on the inside. For anyone stumbling upon this in the future, use the black hats that came with the pool for the two smaller inlet...

That's exactly it on the left there. So looks like that dome part all the way on the right of the left picture does come off somehow. But the second thing in from the right, that's the part I was referring to that had the "pipe" where I have that plug in but from the outside. So basically...

Maybe it unscrews and its just on there super tight and I couldn't get it off, will look more at it today. I was looking for a visible screw on the outside of it but didn't see anything, did try to give it a light twist but didn't want to break anything so didn't try real hard out of fear. I...
