Quick overview
- Fine mesh A tighter weave than the standard leaf bag, so sand and silt stay in the bag instead of passing through.
- Pentair part R211286 The factory replacement bag, ordered by part number.
- Fits Leaf Bagger and Leaf Eater Listed for both Pentair leaf removal heads.
- Large capacity Sized to hold a full spring clean up rather than one pass of the pool.
- For the debris a filter should not see Vacuuming silt and sand to waste through the filter is what clogs media, and this bag keeps it out of the system.
- Rinse and dry before storing Fine mesh clogs faster than coarse, and grit left in the weave hardens the fabric over a winter.

Product details
Pentair R211286 is the replacement fine mesh bag for the Leaf Bagger and Leaf Eater. Where the standard bag is built for leaves, this one has a tighter weave sized to hold sand and silt.
Why fine mesh matters
Fine debris is the material that does the damage. Vacuum a layer of silt or sand through the skimmer and it lands in the filter, loading a cartridge or packing sand and DE media well ahead of schedule. A fine mesh bag on the vacuum head captures it at the pool floor so it never reaches the equipment pad.
Getting the life out of it
The bag is large capacity, so it will take a full clean up rather than needing emptying every few minutes. Fine mesh does load faster than coarse, so rinse the bag out thoroughly and let it dry before it goes into storage. Grit left in the weave stiffens the fabric and cuts the working life of the bag.
