To make a budget vacuum cleaner for cleaning the pool, the author uses a pump from a washing machine.
This idea is very simple to implement, so there will be no difficulties with the manufacture of a homemade vacuum cleaner.
The pump itself can be removed from the old washer or, as an option, bought for a penny at a metal receiver.
The first step is to isolate the part of the pump where the electric motor is located. For this, the author uses a rubber glove.
The main stages of work
The next step will require a plastic brush head for a conventional vacuum cleaner. First, the author fastens it to a wooden block. Then he connects to it a pump from the washer.
Then, to the second hole in the pump, it remains only to connect a piece of the hose, and all the joints - well fasten with plastic ties. Homemade ready.
Pay attention to the following moment: if suddenly during operation the rubber glove is torn off, and at this very moment you touch any part of the body of water, then electric shock is inevitable.
Therefore, it would be more reasonable to use not a rubber glove, but simply fill the entire electrical part with epoxy resin. In this case, the tightness will be 100%.
