Muck Vac FAQ
|
Q. How does it work? A. It is a simple system which uses the water pressure from a standard garden hose to create a suction and vacuum the muck. |
| Q. Where does the muck and waste go? A. The muck and waste is vacuumed up the telescopic pole and discharged to waste right out the end of the discharge hose. You can allow it to go into a bucket or right onto the garden or a deck drain. |
| Q. Does it put any water into the pond? A. No. The water is used purely for creating the suction. However, some water will be displaced from the pond, along with the muck and waste. It will definitely lower the water level. |
| Q. Will it pick up pebbles and small leaves? A. Yes, the higher the water pressure the better the system will operate as far as sucking up small pebbles and leaves. |
| Q. How can I tell if I have 50psi water pressure? A. You really can't tell without buying a special gauge, but 50psi is usually standard. |
| Q. To what length does the telescopic pole extend? A. Extends to 6 feet. |
| Q. How long and how wide is the discharge hose? A. It comes with a 10 foot discharge hose that is 1-1/4 inches wide and there is also a hose adapter included so that you may add additional hose lengths. |
