Product Overview
The Hammer-Head Resort-30 Portable Pool Vacuum | RESORT-30 is a professional-grade, battery-powered vacuum system designed for commercial swimming pools, resorts, hotels, aquatic facilities, schools, HOAs, and other high-use pools.
Featuring an extra-wide 30-inch injection-molded vacuum head, 60-foot floating power cord, two-speed Smart Switch, heavy-duty aluminum caddy cart, and included automatic battery charger, the Resort-30 provides fast debris removal without relying on the pool's pump or filtration system.

A 12V deep-cycle marine battery is required and is NOT included.
A standard swimming pool pole is also not included.

30-Inch Commercial Vacuum Head
The extra-wide 30-inch vacuum head provides increased cleaning coverage, making the Resort-30 especially well suited for large commercial pools and facilities where faster cleaning is important.
60-Foot Floating Power Cord
