What pole does this fit into? I had a pool for skimming etc but it doesnt fit. Annoying that the product site doesnt tie in with a pole purchase.

you are correct that the site should offer a pole that can be purchased to fit the hook. We were fortunate that our existing skimmer pole was a fit for the hook.

Fits both of my poles. My poles are heavy duty and longer than the smaller/shorter & cheaper skimmer pole.

I purchased this last year and it fits in the pole I use for skimming- I also bolted this to the pole. If I actually had to pull someone out of the pool the plastic piece wouldnt be something i would bet someones life on

I'm using a 18'x36' cover and the pole does flex or sag when you have the whole tarp on it. For summer storage, i have folded the tarp in half and removed one of the sections of the pole. It stays straight doing it this way. Not sure how thick (mil) the tarp is, but it is great to close the pool with.

Yes, it fits into the standard size base but you need to add a piece of plastic tubing to keep it in place. Also, I didn't realize until we were getting ready to winterize our pool for the summer last year, it sheds. So if you have a pool, keep it away from your pool or you'll have a mess.

This you have to move around on a pole my pool is only 4 ft deep . I would think for that depth you would need something different.

Hi Dave. It does not have one. I guess the picture is rather deceiving as I see a pole. I will say that it does work great with above ground pools that aren't too big. You simply attach a hose, turn it on and clean the bottom. My pool was around 4 ft deep so I just got in and cleaned it. But a pole would work just as well. Hope this helps you! Peggy

Water Tech Catfishppv works great!!! You just have to find a pole that fits it

go to this link for poolskim and at the bottom you will need to purchase either the 1 inch or 1 1/2 inch adapter depending on your return size. It was worth every penny no more floating leaves in my pool http://www.poolskimusa.com/install.htm

that crank will work for a 12x24 pool. However it does not come with the aluminum pole, only thr cranks.

Yes. I think it is assumed you would have the pole and hose. The pole is pretty much standard as is the hose--available online or in any pool supply store. rb

The Pole is 2" in diameter, however that will be tricky, as it should be anchored a bit deeper for stability on the pool deck.

Hi R. Jobe the pool pole came in a long rectangular box that had been put together to handle the size of the pole. It's about the size of a broom or rake not very wide. Since buying the pole I have not had any trouble with it - it's very light weight. Hey again, just read the other message and the pool pole is good, we haven't had any trouble with it but it was longer than three feet closer to five feet but about ten inches wide. For the price, it's not a bad deal.

Yes. Depending on the size of the diameter of the pole, you may need a larger clamp and some electric tape to use the pool cleaner pole. The aluminum pole is slippery and will slide off without the electric tape to hold it on.

Cherly, I ordered from Intex too but ordered the replacement for the pool type as the skimmer came with that particular pool so it would match up. I never even measured the width of it and it came in fine and fit. I would go that route as they have many intex pools. Hope this helps.

I tried it on a plaster pool. My key issue is that it gets stuck at the bottom and you have to pull really hard to make it move risking that it will get loose from the pole. For me it was workable and I returned it.

I'm facing the same issue, which means that 4" diameter poles are not that uncommon. Not much of a "universal" bracket. Maybe we'll come up with a solution, but in the meantime I am quite disappointed that the listing did not clarify that the pole must be 3 1/2".

We tried it on our vinyl lined pool and it did not work. Would disconnect from the pole often. We returned it.

Based on the answer to the same question I asked, it appears that the blue bracket is for the pole that came with the vacuum, and the white one is for a standard telescoping pool pole. Having used the pole that came with it, I think it would be easier to handle with the (larger) pool pole.
