What is the best thing to clean a pool with?

A suction-side pool cleaner running off your existing pump is the most practical all-around solution for pool floor cleaning — the Poolvergnuegen (W3PVS20JST for pools up to 16×32 ft, W3PVS40JST for pools up to 20×40 ft) handles fine dust, leaves, and mid-sized debris without a separate booster pump or electrical hookup.

No single tool does everything. The Poolvergnuegen vacuums the floor and lower walls automatically while your pump runs, but the walls still benefit from an occasional manual brush to address algae. For most inground pool owners on gunite, fiberglass, or vinyl, the combination of a suction-side cleaner for daily debris removal and a manual brush for weekly wall scrubbing covers the full cleaning picture without overcomplicating the equipment setup.

• Poolvergnuegen W3PVS20JST (2-wheel) is rated for inground pools up to 16×32 ft with a 33-foot included hose.
• Poolvergnuegen W3PVS40JST (4-wheel) is rated for inground pools up to 20×40 ft and uses a straight-line steering sequence optimized for larger coverage runs.
• Both Poolvergnuegen models connect to the skimmer port or a dedicated suction port — no booster pump or separate wiring required.
• Recommended run time for suction-side cleaners: 2–3 hours per day during normal pump cycle operation.
• Turbine vanes (PVXH038SA) are a primary wear component, typically needing replacement every 2–3 seasons under regular use.
