Abstract
A floatation accessory for a pool vacuum is an apparatus that maintains an inverted position for a pool vacuum such that the mouth of the pool vacuum suctions debris along the surface of a pool. The apparatus includes a support platform, a first float, a second float, a support ridge, a handle, an elongated guard, and a suspension system. The support platform upholds the first float and the second float. The first float and the second float are used to float a pool vacuum that is engaged with the apparatus. The support ridge connects the first float and the second float and offsets the elongated guard from the mouth of a pool vacuum. The elongated guard offsets the mouth of a pool vacuum from the side walls of a pool. The suspension system loops a pool vacuum with the support platform, and consequently the first float and the second float.
