Your vacuum hose may have a hole in it. It won't be obvious because the hose is in the pool water. That solved my issue. Do you have more than one skimmer? Plug the other ones. Some skimmers have a flap or disc type device that moves either left or right - close this for more vac suction. On the 1st answer - if there are bubbles coming back to your pool - yes you may have a hole or a crack in the vac hose.

How do you use a pool vacuum effectively to clean your pool?
To use a pool vacuum effectively, start by connecting the vacuum head to a telescopic pole and attaching the hose to the vacuum head. Submerge the vacuum head into the pool and turn on the pump to create suction. Move the vacuum head across the pool floor in a slow and steady motion, overlapping each pass to ensure thorough cleaning. Pay special attention to corners and steps. Empty the skimmer basket and backwash the filter as needed to maintain suction power.

What valves do you leave open when cleaning pool?
You should have two valves: one for the skimmers and another for the bottom drain. Close the valve to the bottom drain. One of your skimmers should have a rotating disc which will cover the intake at the bottom of the skimmer intake hole. Rotate the disc. In this manner all the suction from the pool pump will be at the one remaining skimmer. Attach your cleaning hose to this remaining skimmer while vacuuming the pool.
