I need a pole for a safety/shepherds hook. Would this be the right thing? I'm new to pool ownership...

No - this is for holding a pool brush or a pool skimmer basket. They are attached only by plastic clips which would not withstand the force of a "sheperds hook" around an individual.

This pole is not intended for that purpose. This pole would bend too easily to depend on it as or with a safety hook. There are devices from the same supplier that are intended and designed as safety/shepherds hooks.

If there is an attachment to fit the pole, this pole would work fine. An attachment similar to the brush and skim net.

No. I use the same pole as for the manual vacuum & pool brush. My pool has steps that no auto pool cleaner will go around without getting stuck so I have to still alternate with the manual vacuum.

Yes, that is what I did. The hole is too large, and I was concerned about the threads being damaged so I cut off a 5" long section of 1" Electrical PVC conduit keeping the flared end and the collet for the swim tether fits perfectly.

I would think so. Our pool is 32 by 16 and we use one of those dark blue "bubble wrap" covers over it to help heat it in the spring. That is about a half inch thick and it will all roll up on there. I would suggest this - we didn't buy the pole for it. We used Sch 10 PVC pipe and it sags quite a bit. I'd suggest you buy the pipe that comes with it.

This you have to move around on a pole my pool is only 4 ft deep . I would think for that depth you would need something different.

It does work with standard and a few other pool poles, but nope, pole not included...

Not quite sure how to answer this because it's actual made for a public pool as a safety tool. It hooks to each side of the pool. What are you using it for?

It should be used to attach the rope to the top of your tether pole. I had a hook that I just clipped the rope to and it was ready to play.

The PoolBuster CG does not come with a pole. It appears to have 2 ways of hooking on to a pole. I use a pole with a special fixture at the end which has 2 uses 2 "plunger" like securing pieces to hold it on to the pole I use. My fixture fits over a tube on the bottom of the Pool Buster. The pool vacuum also appears to be able to use a pole that inserts into the tube, but I wouldn't count on that it. Take a look at the "Aqua Broom Pole Adapter Cuff" SKU: BRPACF.

Yeah this is good to go, no need for extra accessories. At the end of the pole are the classic two hole mounts. You should already have a screw/nut from your other mounts. You'll need to reuse one of those to screw it in.

I bought the tube after the handle, the handles were decent the tube I bought was cheap...I only have an 18 round pool and it is very hard to turn handle by yourself. hard to say with long pole how it would work...sorry I wish I could help more

I tried it on a plaster pool. My key issue is that it gets stuck at the bottom and you have to pull really hard to make it move risking that it will get loose from the pole. For me it was workable and I returned it.

Yes. Depending on the size of the diameter of the pole, you may need a larger clamp and some electric tape to use the pool cleaner pole. The aluminum pole is slippery and will slide off without the electric tape to hold it on.

The Pool Blaster does not come with a pole. It uses the same standard pole as your skimmer, pool vacuum etc.

I meant the pole size , sorry ! If it is 8 inches you should have no problem.

Diana,I think it will work well for you. As far as the pole spanning the pool, we used the 3", for the 22' our pole inded up. You'll need nearly 32' or so to span your. I'd go to a 4" pole. Also I went to the hardware store and added bolts to the hidden side of the sections were they are slid into other section. We have no sagging issues. We also love our cover. makes a huge difference. Also, the height of the trussed end you're inquiring about might allow you to leave it in place (mid-pool) while you swim. we swim under ours. Hope this helps.Dan

You may hang this from a shepards hook without additional hardware. HOWEVER ! you should be aware that this product is not strong and if you use a shepherd hook and have squirrels or even worst, raccoons they will very rapidly learn to swing the item and drop it to the ground, mine was unrepairable after the 3rd drop. If this is not an issue, it should work ok. The hanging wire is strong and the loop is sufficient.
