I bought this Intex Automatic Pool Cleaner from Amazon for about 50 some dollars and after a little confusion setting it up I got it working and liking it a lot so far!

Thanks you answered my question.. I read directions an it says to hook to outlet side of pool which made no sense to me either, figured it was a mistake .. evidently your way of think is like mine lol. I haven't tried it yet since I'm waiting on my new pump to come , but thanks for making the video... saved me from getting aggravated , I def would have hooked it up to the inlet side of the pool too lol

It looks like it only stirred up the dirt on the bottom of the pool and made the water cloudy. And if it is hooked up to the blower then it is definitely not suctioning the water through the filter, which is what a normal pool vacuum does. And the cost of electric to run it for a few hours to clean a little pool?
@defaultname01
@defaultname01 4 года назад
Exactly, any vacuum that uses the outlet and doesnt suck the water through the filter is a terrible system and doesnt properly clean the pool at all.
@charlesjschram
@charlesjschram 4 года назад
completely disagree, I bought this and it works great, there's no cost in electric, it hooks up to the OUTPUT flow of water creating the venturi effect to pick up debris.

Does anybody know once it is hooked up if the hose is supposed to be spraying water out of the gap’s where they connected them from the factory
@salonofre7857
@salonofre7857 5 лет назад
Doug Doug the entire hose system goes back in the water with your vacuum so it shouldn’t matter if it’s leaking out the sides of the connections. Once that water from the pump purges the line of all the air it will no longer leak and will do fine

I can not get my outlet connection to unscrew without unscrewing everything. I have this problem every year at the end of the season. I’m assuming it’s because the sun heats everything up (water included) and the attachments swell up?

Using on a sand filter does it bump the water pressure into the yellow? I'm a little worried but it does pick up a great amount of dirt
@lisag3843
@lisag3843 4 года назад
Yes it will cause the pressure to change. Look at the pressure when you start it up. It will likely always jump to that level when it’s in use and drop to your normal range when it’s disconnected

@JayRDucer
@JayRDucer 6 лет назад
Have ever encountered an issue with this vacuum not staying on the floor of the pool therefore blowing the debris around the pool and making it worst rather than cleaning it. It also likes to get stuck on the walls as if attempting to crawl up it. Any suggestions?
@MikesReviews
@MikesReviews 6 лет назад
No you have to fill it up with water first and it won't do that
@evelyneller9647
@evelyneller9647 5 лет назад
Also if you have a plugger value you can slow down the flow of the water and it will slow down the speed of the cleaner. Mine was doing wheelies and someone told me to do that and it worked.
@charlesjschram
@charlesjschram 4 года назад
sounds like your pump might be TOO strong. Add a bleeder valve or something that can allow water to escape before it hits the unit then it will work fine.

@lucyswannsunsafespace7313
@lucyswannsunsafespace7313 6 лет назад
Don’t waste your money. Well, I hope you didn’t waste your money a year ago. I ended up paying $135 for mine. I also researched literally everywhere for weeks. We have an 18 round, with a 2000gph intex pump. There was maybe a teaspoon full of sand in the vacuum, 1 leaf and like 15 acorns after running all day long (12 daylight hours). The bottom of the pool was still full of leaves, more sand and acorns. This thing is crap. I checked on it every 30 mins to make sure it still had suction and “push”. It did, but picking up a cup full of stuff at a time? Not worth the money, in the least. Ended up hooking up the water hose vacuum that came with it and was done in 45 minutes. Not worth the hassle, headache or the money.
@alidarivero3231
@alidarivero3231 3 года назад
I dont know why mine keeps bursting out of the wall adapter. The water pressure from 2500 gph which need the requirements, but it just forces the hose right off as soon as i turn it on. Ive even tried wrapping the adapter with teflon tape to create better grasp but it still shreds the teflon tape n burst off. Sos..has this happened to anyone else?

Meli mel you did it wrong. Your suppose to hold it to the outlet, for only about a min. To get the air out of the hose. When the hose fills up with water, keep it under the water and move it to the inlet....this will pick up the dirt. The way you hooked it up, will only blow the dirt around...:-)
@eveyneller7302

I have the Intex cleaner and it goes across the pool a little bit to fast, sometimes it does a little wheely. I was wondering if I could slow down the water coming into the pool a little (since that is where the cleaner hooks up at) if that would slow down the cleaner some.

The filter (fishing net or dirt net) for INTEX pool floor cleaner automatic 28001 has a hole. (Malfunction) I do not know what to do. I have asked most sellers already but they do not organize this filter for me. To this day I have no solution. If someone has an idea, I will be very grateful. Thank you. Good day. Valter

i took the moving part of a cheap net and garden hose style vacuum the horrible basic crappy one and attached a pool tubing the same kind you use to attach to pool pump i used that hosing to attach where you are suppised to put garden hose and took the net off and attached the pool pole stick oh the pool tubing hose one side attached to the vacuum head where you were supposed to attach garge hose and the other end of tubing attached to the intake inside the pool you know where it sucks in water inside your pool oh and i used the cover that normally goes over the intake hole i took off and cut attached a piece of pvc to go over the protruding portion so it would hold my tubing and i coukd screw it on the intake inside the pool. i will make a video as soon as i put up my new pool the last one was sliced by door hindge as it flew off my add on during last big storm what a mess 4500 gallons of water burst into add on i had just sump pumped. so new pool set up done today and then ill get the diy vacuum nice one not a crappy one it works great.

T0iNFiNiTYBEY0ND Did you ever get an answer to your question about hooking up your summer wave escapes pool? I have a summer wave elite and I bought an intex 3000 gph sand filter system and then bought the intex cleaner. You will have to cut the hole for your return a little bigger but if you will watch the video of Home Skillet (I think that is what he goes by) he will show you how to do it. You need the adapter that comes with the sand filter to use as your return adapter. Then the cleaner should work fine. It hooks up to your return not the out take where the suction is.

So-I-Hustle my pools been up three years...year round. Winterize it, put a large inner tube in the center, I tied ours to each side to keep it in the center, then a winter cover. Lower water level below inlet, disconnect pump and plastic parts. The inner tube prevents all water from turning to ice and tearing your liner. Still no leaks here...:-)

@defaultname01
@defaultname01 4 года назад
This system is no good for anything other than removing the larger debris from the bottom. A good vacuum always uses the suction so all the stuff on the bottom including the fine particles are sucked up and go through the sand filter. These vacuums dont catch and remove all the fine particles coating the floor of the pool so remain there.

Have you figured it out yet? I just ordered one, as well as a 2400gph pump, so... uh-oh. I was thinking, why not put a number small holes in the hose until it loses enough pressure to run properly?
@catchmeifyoucan2815
@catchmeifyoucan2815 4 года назад
@@shavinmccrotch9435 It hasn't got anything to do with pressure of your pump. My pump is heavier and it still works fine. The problem with the cleaner coming up to the service is because you didn't evacuate all the air out of it when putting the cleaner in the water. Hold it upside down, left right etcetera until all the air is out. Works like a charm.
