Hello, new to the forum, so I am trying to get all my questions out. I am attempting to use a Skim Vac plate, to vacuum my pool. When I put the adapter onto the skimmer, quickly, I get suction, but I can hear air swirling around and I get about 4 minutes of vacuuming before the adapter pops off and dirt starts flowing back into the pool from that end.
I had read that other people just attach the hose end directly into bottom of skimmer and I do have the piece to do that. I believe that would solve my issue, but I am wary of doing it. All large debris like leaves, I get out before I vacuum, but for direct and the dead algae I am getting, I would like to try this method of vacuuming.
Any experience with this?
