The VTX-3 creates a powerful vacuum to remove difficult sand and debris whilst scrubbing the pool. The Ultra Flex Hose and Steering System enables it to criss-cross your pool to ensure maximum cleaning and coverage is achieved every time. Like its big brother, the VTX-3 also skims while it sucks to ensure every surface of your pool is sparkling clean. VTX-3 is ideal for all pool surfaces and is a set and forget cleaner for a true Automatic Pool Cleaning Solution. Your Kreepy Krauly VTX-3 will move backwards in direction with the water flowing through the base of the cleaner and is alternately diverted between the two drive tubes. This inertia of the water trapped in each drive tube provides the lifting and propelling motion of the cleaner, which may result in a faintly audible ‘ticking' sound. Our entire system will ensure the cleaner efficiently provides you with our promised Triple Clean with Vortex.
