Heavy debris cleanup is one of the most demanding pool maintenance tasks, especially after storms, heavy winds, or seasonal leaf drop. The Animal Big 24" Leaf Rake with 20" Standard Bag (LN4135) is built specifically for high-volume debris removal, allowing pool owners and service professionals to clear leaves, twigs, and organic matter quickly and efficiently.

With its oversized 24-inch frame and deep 20-inch mesh bag, this professional-grade leaf rake reduces the number of passes required to clean the pool floor. It’s designed to handle tough cleanup jobs without flexing, tearing, or collapsing under heavy loads.

Why a Large Leaf Rake Matters

Standard skimmers and shallow nets struggle when debris accumulates on the pool floor. Trying to remove large amounts of leaves with undersized tools wastes time and strains equipment.

Using a wide, heavy-duty leaf rake matters because it helps:

• Remove large volumes of debris in fewer passes

• Prevent clogging of skimmers and pumps

• Speed up post-storm and seasonal cleanups

• Reduce strain during manual pool cleaning

The Animal Big leaf rake is designed for serious cleanup, not light surface skimming.

How the Animal Big 24" Leaf Rake Works

This rake features a rigid 24-inch frame that maintains its shape under load, paired with a deep 20-inch mesh bag that captures and holds heavy debris without tearing. The wide mouth allows the rake to scoop along the pool floor, walls, and steps efficiently.

The mesh bag drains water quickly while retaining leaves and organic matter, making each lift lighter and easier to manage.

When to Use the Animal Big Leaf Rake

The LN4135 leaf rake is ideal for heavy-duty pool maintenance scenarios, including:

• Post-storm pool cleanup

• Fall and seasonal leaf removal

• Pools surrounded by trees or landscaping

• Removing debris from pool floors and deep ends

• Commercial or service-route pool maintenance

It is designed for debris removal, not fine sediment or algae brushing.

Compatibility with Pool Poles & Equipment

The Animal Big 24" Leaf Rake is compatible with standard pool poles, allowing it to be paired with telescopic aluminum poles for extended reach and better leverage.

The reinforced connection point ensures a secure fit during aggressive scooping without twisting or loosening.

Built for Professional Use

Constructed with heavy-duty materials and a reinforced frame, this leaf rake is built to withstand repeated use under demanding conditions. Pool service professionals rely on it because it holds up to daily use, heavy debris loads, and challenging environments without premature failure.

For homeowners, it offers commercial-level performance that makes seasonal cleanup faster and less frustrating.

Use & Care Best Practices

For best results, work methodically from the shallow end toward the deep end, allowing debris to settle into the rake before lifting. Avoid overloading the bag beyond its capacity to maintain control and reduce strain.

After use, rinse the rake to remove debris and chemicals, and store it out of direct sunlight to extend mesh life.
