The full picture

The vacuum hose is the part everyone forgets until theirs cracks and loses suction. Poolmaster's 1.5-inch hose resists kinking and comes in the lengths most home pools need; buy a couple of feet longer than the distance from your skimmer to the far wall so you're never fighting a short hose.
