Product Overview
Restore your Hayward / Poolvergnuegen 2-wheel suction cleaner without replacing the entire cleaner system. The Hayward PBS20JSTHBX is a genuine replacement headbox/head assembly for compatible 2-wheel suction-side pool cleaners. It is designed for customers who already have usable hoses and accessories and only need the cleaner head replaced.
This head-only replacement is ideal when your current cleaner body is worn, cracked, not moving properly, losing suction performance, or no longer steering correctly. The complete cleaner uses your pool’s existing pump and filtration system for suction-side cleaning.
Important: This listing is for the cleaner head only. Hoses, tubing, skimmer accessories, regulators, and other external accessories are not included.
Ideal For
Pool owners who want to replace only the cleaner head instead of buying a full new suction cleaner.
Great for customers who already have working hoses and need to fix issues such as:
- Cleaner not moving properly
- Poor debris pickup
- Worn or damaged cleaner body
- Steering problems
- Cracked cleaner head
- Weak or inconsistent suction performance
