FAQs

How often should I replace the foam sleeve?

The replacement frequency depends on usage and pond conditions. Check the foam sleeve regularly and replace it when it shows signs of wear or reduced performance. Refer to your PondoVac's manual for specific recommendations.

The vacuum's performance will decrease, and it will be less effective at removing debris, potentially leading to cloudy water and reduced water quality.
