It attaches to a return (there are 2 adapters included - it is possible that these will not fit all pool return line couplings), and it is simply a matter of unscrewing the 'eye', and screwing in (or on, depends on your return) the adapter, putting on the hose and voila! Ready to go.
I bought a second one as a gift for my sister-in-law whose pool could use this nifty leaf collector!
It is so simple, that if you can't figure out how to get it hooked up, then you shouldn't be allowed out alone.
Pool Devil GREAT for dog hair, Having TWO Saint Bernard dogs swimming in the pool causes quite a bit of dog hair in the pool and these Pool Devils just suck it up. As another posting mentioned, in a large pool (almost 40 feet long) one is not quite enough when you have an over abundance of debris - so we hooked up TWO of these and yeehaw!!! Sucks up all the dog hair, the leaves, floating bugs, bees, and the nasties off the surface of the pool. We don't have to backwash as much since not as much debris falls to the bottom where the pool cleaner is responsible. Also much nicer when we swim since we now don't get out with dog hair all over us. I recommend these highly, just wish they lasted longer in the Arizona Sun. They only last 1 season here in Arizona and then crack from the harsh UV rays. We don't purchase the replacement socks, just use women's knee high hosery (white) and works great - I get them at Walgreens. Been using the Pool Devil for almost 3 years now.
Adapters don't fit for 12 X 30, sock is too fine unless stretched, The adapters won't fit for my 12 X 30 Intex pool with the stock pump (which is kind of weak by the way). I had to undo the hose clamp on the outside of the pool where the outflow is and then remove the fitting that Intex gave me, ask my neighbor to cut me off about 4 inches of 3/4" plastic pipe, then I wrapped some clear tape around one end of it a bucnh of times and then shoved it into the pool devils elbow and the other end I put into the outflow hole on the side of the pool and then I re-tightened the hose clamp. I turned it on and honestly it was blowing water into the net/sock and you can see almost all of it is coming right back out as though the net/sock was too fine of a mesh. So I grabbed the sock/net and stretched it out really hard on all sides width wise (not length wise) and then it started working. After that I can see no water flow coming backwards out of the net/sock that it is getting blown into and I could see things floating towards it on the surface and getting blown into the net/sock. The sock probably needs to be less fine (it's about the same as a panty hose mesh but thicker) and I think they should have included an adapter for small 12' pools but for the price I am glad that it is there because i can now see it blowing stuff into the sock but I'm guessing that sock is going to get clogged pretty quick and I will have to clean it off. Also I will be looking for probably a panty hose or something like that in the store that I can cut to twice the length or maybe even a fine fish net stocking, i don't know but this sock seems to fine of a mesh and too short because the water just bounces out unless you stretch the hell out of it sideways. I'm gonna say If I can find the right sock to go on there this will work good.
This is My Second Season Using Pool Devil!, I have a 18x36 sized pool with a lot of purple plum trees in my landscape, therfore there are a lot of tiny leaves in my pool. We were conidering cutting down our beutiful trees because the leaves fall off all summer there are thousands of them.... Pool Devil has done a great job skimming these leaves in addition to the 2 regular skimmers on my pool. I hardly have to use my skimmer net, which seemed like an endless chore before I started using Pool Devil.
Pool Devil was easy to hook up (I did it myself, actually surprising since I usually end up calling my pool guy), and with a little adjusting I got this incredible suction that causes these waves throughout my pool that clean the ENTIRE surface!
So I have pool devil on top and my Polaris cleaning on the bottom of the pool which after initial cleaning my pool runs almost care free all season long.
IT's inexpensive enough compared with other pool products, I would give it a try, I'm so glad I did.
More useful in a spa than a large pool, I installed this on an 19x38' in-ground pool. It's not effective on a pool of that size. The suction area is only about 4 inches from the mouth of the Pool Devil. This was with a decent flow of water through it. There was enough flow to make the bag straighten out, with some froth in it. I dropped some leaves on the water within about 6 inches and it wouldn't suck them in.
I think the Pool Devil is more suitable for an outdoor spa that's about 6 feet in diameter. As a replacement, I bought the Poolskim skimmer. It has much more suction, pulling in debris up to 18 inches away.
The Pool Devil comes with a number of fittings. If you have the standard 1.5 inch internal threaded return jet, it will screw right into it (and so will the Poolskim).
I bought the larger bags for the Pool Devil.
pool devil, I don't consider this product a toy. It works great, but doesn't last but one season and begins to crack. I usually have to replace it at least every two years, if not every year. It should be made of something stronger.
Great product!, This product is great! We were a little skeptical at first but once we hooked it up and let it run for about 30 minutes our pool was clean! Our skimmer baskets aren't overflowing with flowers petals anymore! The Pool Devil catches any debris before it has time to make it to the bottom.
Works fairly well, It does a great job in the shallow end of our pool. It really catches everything in it's general area, but for larger pools it falls a little short.
Not worth it., I watched the online video and read the reviews - but this product doesn't work. Leaves flow around it, even when I put one leave around the middle, it just flew out. I adjusted the pressure of the water coming out but that didn't help either. tried multiple things over a few days........Nothing worked.
Total waste of money and time. Talked to my pool store, and they said yes, their is no good product for skimming stuff off the top of the pool, otherwise they'd sell it.
Pool Devil hmmmm, None of the adapters fit up to my pool intake, I have an Intex 18' frame pool. One was very close though. I called the manufacturer, had to leave a voice mail,and after two weeks they finally called me back and are sending two for me to try. They did seem very concerned and helpful once they called back. I have yet to receive them so can't comment on how it actually works at this point.
