Pentair Rainbow Economy Triangular Vinyl Liner Vacuum Head (Model 194) | R201392
The Pentair Rainbow R201392 (Model 194) is an economy-style triangular manual vacuum head designed for vinyl liner pools. Its sand-weighted ABS body helps it stay down on the pool floor for steady pickup, while the triangular shape improves access into corners and along walls. Replaceable brushes provide gentle scrubbing action while vacuuming without being overly aggressive on vinyl surfaces.

- Replaceable brushes for scrubbing while vacuuming and easy service when worn.

Usage Notes

- If vacuuming near seams or delicate vinyl areas, keep the head moving and avoid sharp twisting.

Maintenance Tips
- Rinse the vacuum head and brushes after use to remove grit that can accelerate brush wear.
- Inspect brushes regularly; replace them if they become uneven, brittle, or start shedding.
- Store out of direct sunlight when possible to reduce UV aging of plastic and brush material.
- If vacuum performance drops, check for hose cracks, loose cuffs, or air leaks at the skimmer/vac plate connection.
