Hayward PoolVac V-Flex Pod Kit Overview!

Hello ePoolSupply supporters and fellow blog enthusiasts. Back with you all again to go over a particular suction side cleaner but more importantly one of its many parts. The cleaner I am referring to is the Hayward PoolVac V-Flex and the part we are going to go over is the PoolVac V-Flex Pod Kit (part #AXV417-237). This part is vital to not only the cleaner’s success rate of removing the dirt and debris off the surface of your pool. It also provides the movement needed for the cleaner to make its way around the bottom surfaces of your pool as it removes the dirt and debris mentioned above.

Hayward PoolVac V-Flex

PoolVac V-Flex automatic suction pool cleaner delivers more power, reliability, and performance than ever. Equipped with patented V-Flex variable vane turbine technology, PoolVac V-Flex can pick up larger dirt and debris more effectively than any other cleaner on the market for peace of mind of clog-free cleaning. It maximizes suction power even at lower flow-making it the perfect partner for use with variable speed pumps. Its unmatched patented AquaPilot programmed steering determines the most efficient cleaning path around any pool and assists with cleaner maneuverability for the most reliable, complete pool coverage.

What is the Purpose of the Pod Kit?

The pod kit was designed to be the objects on the bottom of the cleaner that is responsible for moving the cleaner along your pool’s surfaces. With the help of the a-frame kit and pod shoes, these pods move back and forth at opposite times so that way it creates a perfect systematic movement that allows the cleaner to maneuver around the surfaces.

Over time these parts will deteriorate from use and the elements that present themselves outside daily or they may even come loose. It is always best to check not only these parts but all the other wearable parts periodically for any wear or damage that can directly affect the way the PoolVac V-Flex operates.

In conclusion, Hayward makes a great line of products and when it comes to the basic rules for taking care of your pool, keeping it clean is most often the first thing that comes to your mind. Clean pools are inviting for the likes of all. Hayward’s reliable pool cleaners provide pool owners with peace of mind and total relaxation. Cleaners vacuum and scrub the floor and coves of the pool so you don’t have to (although you still need to brush the walls from time to time).
