Hello all! First post after recently joining the forums, thanks for all the advice I've already read here on other topics!

The connector for my manual vacuum hose in my skimmer box is cracked, and I suspect impacting how much suction I get (I've noticed the leaves don't suck up the hose as fast as they used to). I did some googling and couldn't find anything that looked like the right adapter. The lip of the connected that threads into the skimmer sits inset to the rubber end of the hose.

I've posted some photos below, if anyone knows what this type of connector is called let me know. Thanks!

Mmmmm... Interesting. I don't have that can of suction. I have a Hayward Skim-Vac (straight) suction as seen here.

To understand better, is this connector going into the skimmer plug for suction purposes? If so, is there any type of part number on this connector. I was researching this and found something that looks very similar to your brand.

I'll let an expert chime in here shortly.
