How does it work with the garden hose? Instructions please.

A garden hose is essential for this device to work. The water rushing through the nozzle and out through the hose or screen creates a venturi, a vacuum, that pulls the leaves and debris out with it. It also carries out some of the water that is in the pool or pond. An earlier post warns that you need high water pressure in your hose to create a strong venturi/vacuum. My pond is shallow, only 6" so this system didn't work for me. The filter bag has to be submerged or else the water just comes squirting all over the place.

Not sure what the question is. How is it attached? Simlpy follow the directions and screw the hose into the attachment on the base. The flow of the water then creates a Venturi effect and creates a vacuum that sucks up the debri from the floor of the pond. How does it work in terms of " does it work well"? The flow of water from the hose has to be very strong. For me, a regular garden hose carrying water from a regular faucet, did not provide enough vacuum power, so the suction was very poor and did not work for me. The force of the vacuum was too weak to be effective. I have mine collecting dust sitting in my garage. Not sure what the question is. How is it attached?

It really works well. Great mini vac. You won't be disappointed. I would also suggest you check out your nearest Walmart store because they have it also at about $2.00 cheeper

We have no problems -I got this for my spouse to make it easier with 100' of hose and it works good. However here is a tip lazy people expect it to do all the work and walk away from it, and it gets caught up or kinks the hose etc. Just do not let you trigger nozzle drag in the grass. and it will wind up quickly.

It does not and should not connect to a garden hose. It is a high pressure hose and nozzle requiring a pressure washer.

It's for a garden hose, but I found it a bit akward for me. I use it without. Works either way.

The fitting does not connect directly to a garden hose. An adapter comes with the unit at no extra cost - works fine.

I use it with a y valve attached to the faucet and then the timer and garden hose attached to the two legs of the y-valve. It's always seemed to work fine that way.

yes, it works well. just cut off the end of the hose and put this on the cut end, its easy, only tool youll need is a knife.

There is a connector that is installed so that the hose can be connected/disconnected when needed. Very simple and has worked great for me!

I attach the hose to my brush pole. Its a hard fit but it works, The only problem I have is that I need an extension for the main drain end because the one it has, has that valve that opens and closes which does not allow for full suction

there is no hose that is attached to the unit aside from the black one you see in the picture. You attach it to your own garden hose on the front of the unit and it goes through the black hose that is attached to the sprayer of your choice.

I have no idea the answer to your question...I use my hose and love it,but that green light adapter,I can't answer your question....It makes no sense to me and no instructions came to advise how the adapter was to be used....Regards.Maureen

Hi, Richard. I looked at mine, and figure the black nob at the top in the front is an overflow. I am not sure that a garden hose would do much good there. I attached a spigot to the front near the bottom. That works great for attaching a hose or filling a watering can.

Like any standard garden hose, both ends are the same. In this instance, the hose in question comes with an additional attachment which allows coupling of two like ends. This attachment is shown in the advertised illustratioin. If you would need a better made device, check HD or Lowe's. I hope this response was helpful.

The filler attaches to a regular garden hose. It comes with a button to control water flow. It works much like any other hose attachment sprayer. Water only sprays out of the device when the button is pressed. The balloon thing attachment is at the bottom of the device and can be used with or without the filler.

I used it to fix a leak in a pipe under the kitchen sink and it's been there for over a year. So I would think it would work on a garden hose. It's really sturdy.

I have a regular garden hose attached to mine and it works just fine! I however do not have a Frost-Free bib on any of my hoses.
