What to do for Cleaning until can use Robot on New Pool?

[CoogLH]

My pool just got started up last Friday and all is well so far and I have a robot but can't use that for 3 more weeks on the brand new Pebblesheen. Is anything safe to use to get out the dust/dirt settling to bottom in areas? I am doing all the brushing but that just moves it around mostly and not out.

Thanks for any tips.

Try brushing towards the deep end and the main drains with the pump running on high. It should suck up most of the dust.

Thanks I will check the speed on pump as it has been running almost nonstop these first 5 days.

I used a brush/vacuum head. No wheels. The brush is cheap and made for vinyl pools but works. I would not use it to scrub the pool, just push enough to clean bottom so it wouldn't break the brush. Then scrubbed with normal brush. The bristles are nylon so should be safe to use. Of coarse you will need hose and such to hook up to skimmer.

Thanks, I found neighbor that had vacuum without the wheels and borrowed it. They are still landscaping and doing things this week so it kicked up lots of stuff that ended up in pool. Now we are ready for the weekend

I see you have a variable speed pump and no SWG. Take full advantage of this. These pumps consume very little energy when used at low RPM. My pool skims just fine at 1000rpm.
