Review: IT works. - Here in southern Florida we have an annual problem during the summer with swarming ants. They swarm after a heavy rain and fall into the pool covering the surface. The pools' built in skimmer just can not handle the load. I have been searching for a solution for several years but could not find anything that I thought could help. I have even researched this product several times. I finally decided it might be worth a try and purchased it in early summer of 2025. To my surprise it is really working and has helped greatly in clearing the pool surface of these pesky little ants. My pool has a seperate vacuum port so it was a breeze to install. Once I adjusted the flow rate for proper suction I have not needed to readjust. Now just need to see how long it will last before needs replacement.
Review: Did not work as reviewed by others - I found that the suction is not strong enough to clean the top of pool, it only provided air to enter suction line. If your pool is deeper than 8' it will not let your sweeper work, i noticed it stayed in place and i had to manually move the sweeper to get it going again. I found that the inner blue ring moves and came out entirely due to lack of not being permanently attached. None of the 3 settings were strong enough to pull debris from top of pool. The adapter that comes with it is tapered and allows for a loose connection between the original hose and adapter I had to purchase a stainless steel clamp to keep hose connected. The hose that comes with it is only about 1" in diameter which I found to be way to small. We read the installation instructions and to no end did this product work as reviewed by others who purchased it. I lent it out to a friend who has a smaller/shallower pool than me and stated the same thing, didn't work, no suction, quicker to skim top of pool with net than with this product. For me this purchase was a waste.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this without a pool vac? Can you attach this directly to the skimmer?**
A: This should work with most any vacuum as well. As long as it is a standard hose it will connect to any vac and to the skimmer as well.  To be clear, any suction powered vac. Not electric vacs

**Q: Does it work with The PoolCleaner?**
A: Yes we do have many SkimmerMotion attached to The PoolCleaner.\Latest model does have a rubber T-Joint so it connecte easy to the Pool cleaners

**Q: Does it work with Hayward 500 Aqua Bug**
A: It should work. The skimmer has a T that connects to the Hayward device and so you slip the intake hose over the T. The Aquabug is similar to the Hayward Poolvac XL.

**Q: Does this work with dolphin cleaner?**
A: Dolphin cleaner is an electric pool cleaner.SkimmerMotion will not work with any Electric pool Cleaner.SkimmerMotion is designed for vacum pool cleaner.Thanks for asking.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome product!
*by J***B on June 26, 2015*

Its a very simple and basic product but works so well. In combination with my barracuda vacuum my pool has never been cleaner. Other than heavy winds or right after mowing the yard I don't need to skim the pool by hand anymore! It is so nice to be able to just jump in for a few minutes after work rather than spend 10-15 min skimming first. Update 5yrs later June 2020 After 5 yrs I finally need to replace this item. The plastic T broke and the hose gave out, I’ve trimmed the hose multiple times over the last 5 yrs due to tears in the hose. I also had problems like others with the blue triangle things coming off, nothing a little superglue won’t solve. IMO nothing in fl sitting in water and direct sunlight for 12+hrs a day is going to last much more than a year without issues, it just is what it is. I still think this item is worth the money as it works pretty well for me but it is not going to last forever and will need some fixes to keep it going. I would like to see a replacement hose and the plastic T available for purchase separately. FYI my local pinch a penny sells this item for $70!
