Vacuum Heads
Keep your pool sparklingGetting the full value out of having a swimming pool is easier with the right pool vacuum heads and hoses from Doheny's. A swimming pool vacuum head provides a quick solution to removing bugs, sticks, stones, leaves, and other debris that land in the pool, especially after a summer storm. Vacuuming the pool should be an essential part of any pool cleaning routine. Yes, it requires a little manual labor, but the benefits outweigh the effort. If you regularly vacuum your pool, recommended at least once a week, your pool will not only look nicer, but the chemicals will work more efficiently.
To properly vacuum your pool, you will need a few items:
- Vacuum Head: The actual "sweeper" that attaches to the telescopic pole.
- Telescopic Pole: An adjustable length pole is used for attachments such as vacuum heads, nets, skimmers and brushes.
- Vacuum Hose: The vacuum hose attaches to the vacuum head to the pool pump through the skimmer inlet - providing the needed suction.
The Right Vacuum Head for your Pool Liner

Pool Vacuuming Tips
- Always test water after vacuuming to ensure proper balance.
- A weekly vacuuming is recommended, in addition to any time there are large amounts of debris, dirt, or leaves on the floor of the pool, and usually after a heavy storm.
- Even if you use a robotic pool cleaner, you will still need to manually vacuum your pool. Robotic cleaners are great for day-to-day cleaning, but not designed for heavy debris. If debris is not removed immediately, it can lead to pool maintenance issues like algae.
- Since a regular pool vacuuming routine keeps the debris removed from the pool, it helps with algae prevention.
