A: If you notice that the Pool Blaster is not picking up debris as you
vacuum the pool, this is an indication that the bag needs to be emptied. The

self contained.

Q. What is the difference between the Aqua Broom, the Catfish, the
Pool Buster Max and the Pool Buster CG?
A: Primarily the differences lie in their features and performance
capabilities.
Q. I see Pool Buster Max and Pool Buster CG mentioned but I don't see it offered in your product line?
A: A recent re-branding campaign officially changed the
Pool Buster™ re-chargeable, battery powered, underwater vacuum cleaner. The new brand name is the Pool Blaster™ and was chosen to more closely mirror the power and functionality of the product. In an effort to redefine the power of the product, which vacuums up everything from rocks and gravel to leaves and other debris, the product has been renamed Pool Blaster™ to reflect the power of the unit to ‘blast’ out all debris from the pool without hoses or poles.
The name has also been applied to the company’s entire line of cleaning products which includes the Pool Blaster™ Aqua Broom, Pool Blaster™ Catfish, Pool Blaster™ MAX and recently added Pool Blaster MAX CG or commercial grade—which works for up to one hour before needing to be re-charged, making it ideal for commercial aquatic facilities. “We have already received very positive feedback from our customers who feel the name more closely mirrors the product’s capabilities.
