The Pool Vac Ultra is designed for many different types of pools whether it be exposed aggregate, marcite, fiberglass coating. You want to make sure either when you are buying it or whether you inherited it that you are getting the right shoe. Just like you and I the shoes make the cleaner and you want to make sure it's got some good friction and if it doesn't then it's just going to slip, it's not going to perform how you like it. This, we've got on our little guy here, is the most common type of shoe. This is the one for marcite gunite pools. In 90% of your pools it will take good care of it but sometimes on a fiberglass you might need a little bit more footing or other surfaces so there are several types of shoes available that will fit on it. These over here have the cork feet. They have the plastic backing and the cork that makes touching vinyl siding and fiberglass a little easier and in some cases you can go with a little bit more of a soft shoe a little tap dance for the cleaner. These have a little bit more bracing for it here. If you are not sure what type of shoe you have or what type you need rather, consult your local pool professional and they'll be happy to tell you exactly what type of shoe is best for your pool. Just like us, it's the shoes that makes the cleaner.
