We began vacuuming the bottom of the pool. It has a year's worth of Crud there, basically.
Soon after starting to vac, the little plastic strainer gets clogged so then we have to stop the vac, go over to the hose, wash out the strainer, put it back, turn on the vac again. Then repeat. At this rate it will take a very long time, many repetitions. Is there an easier way to get the bottom Crud out of the pool?
I know about those bottles of things that help things clump, but it seems like in this case it won't work? A lot of the debris is fairly large but there are all types I figure. A lot of it gets stirred up quickly when vac is on too, so then you kind of have to wait for it to settle down.
I do have a Dolphin but my guy is thinking that it would have trouble with SO much debris in there and it would get clogged fast too, and cleaning it is kind of a pain. So we were going to use the Dolphin only after we get half of this Crud out of the pool.
The net doesn't seem to be any faster or better than vacumming.
Thanks!
