Aqua EZ Pool Vacuum has become a hot favorite pool cleaner in recent days. The features, durability, interface, cleaning ability, etc. are making it versatile for users. Although they are finding difficulty in one particular field. That particular field is knowing how to use Aqua EZ pool vacuum.
Firstly, you need to assemble the entire pool vacuum. There are components provided with the product. After assembling, you need to set up the vacuum properly to the skimmer.
Once you have taken all these necessary measures, you just need to activate the vacuum and the automatic pool cleaner would do its job by itself. It can only work for six hours maximum at full charge. And it would take about 4 hours to fully charge an Aqua EZ Pool Vacuum.
How to turn on Aqua EZ Pool Vacuum
Before you start to use a pool vacuum or activate a pool vacuum, you need to assemble it properly. For assembly, you need to know about the parts. The job is pretty easy and fundamental. If you have prior knowledge of how to use suction pool cleaner, you would be good to go.
So, let’s get a rough idea about what parts are given along with an Aqua EZ Pool vacuum.
- Vacuum Head
- Telescopic Pole
- Flexible Hose 16 feet long
- Intake Connectors
- Vacuum Machine
The assembly is quite simple just like every other suction pool cleaner. Attach the vacuum head with the telescopic pole. Now, attach the hose’s open end with the telescopic hose.
Take another open end of the hose and attach it to the vacuum machine. Connect the vacuum to the skimmer with intake connectors. You are pretty much done here. Now turn on the activate switch in your Vacuum Machine and your Aqua EZ pool cleaner will start to do its job.
These materials are generally provided with the pool cleaner, although you can find them in any retail store. Also, many pool construction services can sell you these items.
How to use Aqua EZ 11-in Swivel-Handle Pool Vacuum Head
Now that you’ve successfully assembled your pool cleaner, now it’s time to know how to use it. But Aqua EZ pool cleaners have many different models for their pool cleaners.
We have chosen the most popular Aqua EZ pool cleaner, the Aqua EZ 11-in Swivel-Handle Pool Vacuum. Let’s break down the procedures to clean your pool.
Attaching to lower intake port
There are intake connectors provided with the product. Take one of those connectors and connect your vacuum to the lower intake port. This will help you to connect your hose to the intake port of the pool.
Attaching to Skimmer
Skimmer is the filtration system of your swimming pool. To attach your vacuum to the skimmer, you need to pull out the skimmer basket. Otherwise, you cannot place the vacuum there properly.
Installing the vacuum and connecting the hose
After removing the basket from the skimmer, place the vacuum there. And if you previously didn’t connect your hose to the vacuum machine, connect it now. The setup is now perfectly complete.
Cleaning the pool
Turn on your vacuum and place the vacuum head in the pool. Now, maneuver it however you like. The automatic pool cleaner would suck out the debris from the pool all by itself. You just have to move the telescopic pole by yourself manually.
You could clean the pull as much as you want but sometimes for obvious reasons it isn’t okay to leave pool vacuum in pool.
If you are still struggling with using it, just try to assemble it and contact a pool service company like Blue Diamonds. Once they clean the pool, try to get the proper guidance from there. It may not be the best method to learn it, but it is an effective way all around.
How to charge Aqua EZ Pool Vacuum
The manufacturers will provide you with a charger and a charging adapter. Without any of these items, you cannot charge your Aqua EZ pool vacuum.
To charge your automatic pool cleaner, you need to attach the adapter at the top of the vacuum machine. It’s normally covered with dust cover. Open the dust cover. Then attach the adapter and connect it to the charger brick.
Now, connect the charger brick to any electric socket and turn it on. Your pool cleaner should start charging.
There is a light indicator installed in the charger brick. If it shows red light, it means the vacuum machine isn’t fully charged yet. And if it shows green, it indicates that the vacuum machine is now fully charged.
Below is a chart given how much time it needs to fully charge your Aqua EZ pool vacuum and how much longer can you use it with that amount of charge.
| 1 hour of charging | 2 hours of charging | 3 hours of charging | 4 hours of charging | 5 to 6 hours of charging | |
| Charge Level | 17% | 34% | 52% | 70% | 100% |
| How long it can work | 57 minutes | 1 hour and 52 minutes | 3 hours and 10 minutes | 4 hours and 30 hours | 6 hours to 6 hours and 14 minutes |
| Power Consumption | 18 amps | 37 amps | 51 amps | 74 amps | 96 amps |
It’s not always possible to charge up your Aqua EZ pool vacuum to 100% every time. Sometimes you can only charge up to 1 hour or 2 hours or 3 hours. Remember, automatic pool cleaners consume 83% less power than non-automatic pool cleaners.
Charging 1 hour will give your pool cleaner only a 17% charge level and it can only work for 57 minutes. The power consumption would be 18 amperes per second.
2 hours of charging will provide you 34% of the charge while working for 1 hour and 52 minutes straight. It will consume only 37 amperes per second of power while charging 34%.
If you charge your pool cleaner for only about 3 hours, it will gain 52% of charge with working for 3 hours and 10 minutes, and the power consumption would be 51 amperes per second.
4 hours of charging would give you 70% of the charge. The pool cleaner would work for 4 hours and 30 minutes. It would consume only 74 amperes per second of power.
It takes 5 to 6 hours for an Aqua EZ Pool Vacuum to fully charge. It can clean your swimming pool for 6 hours to 6 hours and 14 minutes while being fully charged. And only 96 amperes per second of power would be consumed if you fully charge your Aqua EZ pool cleaner.
