We just got an above ground pool this year and it came with a manual vacuum. It dosnt really work good, so my dad bought a n automatic one. It keeps getting stuck on the ladder. Its a Barracuda brand something like that. Does anyone know how to fix that problem? Its one of those that has a flat thing at the bottom and a round collar around the top so it stays so far out of the walls please any help!!
Thanks



Answer
There is a ladder guard that you can purchase for the Barracuda pool cleaner. It is sold as an option accessory and is made specifically to remedy this problem. I believe that their part number is #W24000. You can get one with an retailer that sells Barracuda parts or probably directly from the company.

I have a rock under my pool liner?

We bought an above ground pool and installed it ourselves. It took us 5 tries but we finally got it up and filled and then noticed that there is a pointy rock about the size of a 50 cent piece sticking up under the liner. I have no idea how we missed it but we did so now we don't know what to do! We are afraid to try and push it down because it's probably going to poke a hole in the liner.. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do with it? We have 6 kids so I'm sure if we leave it in there its going to eventually get a hole there with the kids walking on it all the time. Its a 24' x 52" pool so we really don't want to drain it and start over, cause like I said this is the 5th time and 2 other times we had it half full and had to drain it. Someone please help!!!


Answer
Couple of options.
1/ New liner and new install so it's not going to be a hardship on that liner to drain it, crawl under from a convenient spot, grab that offending rock , retrace your crawl and smooth the bottom as you retreat.
2/ Live with it until it holes. Unpleasant for the feet and will happen sooner if you have an automatic pool cleaner.
3/ Bite the bullet and grab a knife. Have a patch kit and liner sample large enough to to the patch. Slice at the rock, grab it and apply your patch quickly so that your sand bottom doesn't start creating a channel as it erodes.
