All,

I have learned a lot from everyone at this site. I have a couple of quick questions and the answers might help me solve the problems with my pool vacuum.

First, what is the grate at the bottom of the pool called? Is it a return grate? Is the purpose to have a second point of suction in the pool?


Second, I have seen different covers? Why would someone need these? How do you replace them? Would the grate be the reason that my pool vacuum sticks at the bottom every time it passes by?

Thanks,
Guy
