Any experience with the Wall Whale brush?

Hi all....
I'm an above ground pool owner. Is it necessary to brush the walls of a vinyl lined above ground pool?
thanks,
Dave

I believe that Pooldoc has a riff on this at POOLSOLUTIONS - the sister site to this forum. Every pool needs maint. brushing, usually weekly is enough. The reason for it is that there are many areas in a pool where the flow and exchange of filtered vs. unfiltered ( treated vs. untreated) water is low and brushing 'activates' the water arround the brush and removes particles stuck to the surface.

SJohnson; yes, no hard feelings! (Both ways ?)
In the past I was prone to lengthy posts (waaay too much detail and rambling) and am currently trying to shorten my replies,to save myself, and anyone who chooses to read them, some time. I feel that keeping my posts to the 'nuts and bolts' of an answer may be better - if someone needs clarification for something I've typed, I'll gladly give it - if not, I'll have more time to check out other posts( given the limited time I have to 'play' on the site daily.)

Thanks for the reply Waste. I don't think I've ever once used a brush in the three years we've had our pool. I guess maybe it's time to buy one of these things and start using it.
Thanks again.
