BLU52 8-Wheel Sweeper 350mm

BLU52 8-Wheel Sweeper 350mm is a professional manual vacuum head designed for the thorough cleaning of large residential swimming pool floors.

This wide-format cleaning tool features a weighted chassis and integrated wheels to maintain constant contact with the submerged surface, ensuring concentrated suction to remove sand, silt, and organic debris from concrete or marbelite pools.

Product Specifications and Features

• • Eight heavy-duty Wheels are fitted with stainless steel axles to provide smooth lateral movement and prevent the vacuum head from sticking to the pool floor during high suction.
• • Weighted Chassis Design ensures the sweeper remains submerged and stable, reducing the physical effort required to keep the unit flat against the surface in deep water.
• • Three Hundred and Fifty Millimetre Width covers a larger surface area per stroke compared to standard sweepers, significantly decreasing the total time required for manual cleaning.
• • Universal Fitting Handle includes a spring-loaded wishbone clip that is compatible with all standard thirty-two millimetre aluminium telescopic poles used in pool maintenance.
• • Adjustable Suction Port is designed to fit standard thirty-eight millimetre pool hoses, creating an airtight seal for maximum debris extraction through the filtration system.

Ideal Use and Application

• • Concrete and Marbelite Pools are the most suitable surfaces for this wheeled design, as the wheels provide the necessary clearance to glide over textured or slightly uneven finishes.
• • Manual Spot Cleaning is highly effective for removing concentrated piles of dirt or sand that automatic cleaners may miss, particularly in corners or on steps.
• • Deep End Maintenance is simplified by the extra weight of the unit, which prevents the head from floating up when extended on a long pole.

Safety and Care Instructions

• • Inspect Wheels Regularly to ensure they rotate freely; trapped grit or hair can cause wheels to seize, which may lead to scuffing on the pool surface.
• • Store Out of Sunlight when not in use, as prolonged exposure to harsh ultraviolet rays can cause the plastic body to become brittle and the wheels to degrade.
• • Check Hose Connection before starting the pump to ensure no air is trapped in the line, which could cause the pump to lose prime or run dry.

Frequently Asked Questions

• • Can I use this on a vinyl or fibreglass pool? While it can be used, a brush-head sweeper is generally preferred for smooth liners to avoid potential wheel marks; this wheeled version is optimised for hard masonry surfaces.
• • Does it include the hose or pole? No, this is the vacuum head attachment only; the hose and telescopic pole are sold separately.
• • How do I improve the suction? Ensure the filter is clean and the weir basket is empty; for maximum power, you can temporarily close the main drain valve to direct all suction to the weir.
