Is this only for inground pools? Can I use it on vinyl liner of above ground pool?

I used this item for my inground concrete pool. I do not recommend it for vinyl liner. This item is made of hard plastic and it is pretty heavy. It might damage the vinyl liner when you push back and forth with some pressure.

I believe it should work for an inground pool. You will need to make sure you have the adapters to fit your filter system. This is only a guess.

I bought it and use it for my in ground vinyl pool, and so far, it works great!

Yes, this should be able to be used on virtually any pool. I have an above ground with Trek decking and it works perfectly for me.

Yes. We use it on an Intex above ground pool & it works fine. You will need to purchase pole & hose separately, since it does not come with vacuum head.

On the instructions, it says that it is not designed for use on horizontal surfaces. I had bought it to use on my flagstone coping around my saltwater pool. So I went ahead and used it. It also says it shouldn't be used on surfaces already sealed, which mine had been about a year earlier. I power washed and applied the Rainguard. So far working great. Glad I did it.

I use it for an in ground pool and works perfect. It will also work for an above ground pool if you have the proper piping. All it does is, that the same pool pump you have runs the water through the panels before going back into the pool

I have no clue about above ground pools but I would think it should work fine. It is of good quality and heavy enough to stay put. A little tricky to pull off so you would have to figure out a way to do that. We like the pool cover and use it in FL over the winter months. Don't use in the summer.

This item can be used for above-ground and in ground. I bought it for my in ground pool and it heat very well. It dose a outstanding job.

You can use this with above ground swimming pools, as long as the filter flow rate is less than 4000 gallons per hour. It's quite simple to install with intex pump and filter, but if it's not, you will need a few things from home depot. I would suggest two 2" union fittings (slip), Two 2" female adapters (one sif s is threaded the other smooth), and some 2" elbows will be needed. For more info email me hookdup88@gmail

I wouldn't try using this pool vac in an above ground. It's extremely heavy and large and will probably tear your liner. I have a concrete inground and I've noticed some chipping in my concrete which could've come from the vacuum, but not sure. Get a vacuum specially designed for above ground swimming pools. Good Luck!

I purchased one of these and am pleased with it... But isn't it designed for above ground pools?

Works great in a inground vinyl liner pool, cleans great and climbs up the walls to the waterline

I can't say but it is tough enough for concrete gunnite plaster pools like mine, so it should work fine on a vinyl liner pool.

Yes, as long as your pump is at least 1000 GPH. It's designed to be used with the pump and filter combination used by most above ground pools. It has a very small net bag to prevent larger debris from entering the pump or filter.

In the product description it states that it is not recommended for vinyl lined pools, however the Sunken Treasure has been used successfully in above ground, vinyl lined pools for years. Proper use is one 3 inch chlorine tab in the unit. More than one tab can put an over concentration of chlorine in the area of the Sunken Treasure, and since it sits on the bottom, it could bleach the liner. So, we caution users to use one chlorine tab. I hope this helps.
