ABSTRACT:
A swimming pool cleaning device powered by pressurized water running into the pool from an outlet jet port connected to the pool pump. The device has two hose sections, the first being approximately one foot is screwed into the outlet jet port. Attached to an opposite end is a swivel connector which is connected to a second hose that is approximately as long as the pool itself. The second hose has floats positioned along the exterior and wear rings for protecting the hose from wear and tear effects from using the apparatus. Attached to the second hose is a cleaning head having angled through-hole exit ports, which when water is flowing through the hoses causes the head and second hose to rotate relative to the first hose. Second and third versions include using brush sleeves over hose or rings and the cleaning head. A cage having a chlorine table can be located in the head. During operation, the head and hoses go in a sweeping pattern across the bottom and side surfaces of the pool, so that the brushes rotate and scrub those surfaces. The constantly moving hoses and head further agitate the water causing debris to move towards the pool skimmer and drain, which increases the efficiency of filtering all pool water and debris from walls and bottom surfaces. By keeping debris and sediment agitated and the chlorine water throughly mixing, the device provides a significant reduction of pool pump running time of between approximately two to approximately five hours, depending on the size of the pool.
