How do you get more suction in skimmer for pool vacuum?

There could be a few reasons why your pool skimmer is not suctioning properly. Here are a few things to check:

1. Make sure the pump basket is clean and free of debris. A clogged pump basket can restrict water flow and reduce suction power.

2. Ensure that the hose from the vacuum head to the skimmer is properly connected and free of kinks or leaks. Any air leaks will reduce suction.

3. Check the position of the vacuum head. The vacuum head should be fully submerged in the water and should be held in place by the pool wall or a vacuum plate. If the head is not properly submerged, air can be sucked in and reduce suction power.

4. Make sure the filter is clean and free of debris. A clogged filter can restrict water flow and reduce suction power.

5. If the suction is still weak, you may need to increase the pump speed. Some pool pumps have a variable speed setting that allows you to increase the pump's power.

If you have checked all of these things and the suction is still weak, you may need to call a pool technician to take a look. There could be a problem with the skimmer or pump itself.
