This season were having to replace the frame for our 18 x 48 coleman . (water looks great for 5 months of being covered lol) Already have the frame all ready to go,, just a case of draining and getting it going... I'm planning to replace each part as i'm taking the older / rust worn part...

Yea its pretty shaded in that area. i guess that's the way its gonna be...,, when this new frame goes on,, get another 2-3 years out of it ( hopefully with liner withstanding),, then go ahead with a resin pool. Just gonna see if it makes it through winter lol

Frames only 3 years old,,,, but within the first year the frame already showed signs of rust,,, thats when i contacted coleman,and warrantied the frame.. So its been waiting in the shed till the right moment lol (Once this new one finally goes,, were just gonna go and get a resin AGP... )

So,im no expert but i feel our current pool has come to the end of its life lol ,well the frame has anyway.. I have a replacement frame waiting for the next season.. My question is, where it had rusted the most (is where the deck is,,and where the kids been getting in and out...)...

My local Walmart has an "Aiper seagull 800" robot pool vac for just under $200... just wondering if anyone on here have any experience with this model,, Last season i was cleaning manually,,, so this year its gonna be pool suction vac or the robot vac... lol

From what ive seen and reading, if i do order a cover for a 18 ft round pool,, its is infact 21ft ( giving that extra few feet for overhang), just hope thats enough when adding those winter pillows lol

We have a 18x48 above ground pool cover ,and i also know that the cover needs to be a few feet bigger to accommodate that overhang.. Would it be a good recommendation to go for a cover for a 21ft size pool,( giving 3 extra ft along with that additional 3 or 4 ft that is the norm for a pool...

From the lip of the deck to the top of the pool frame is 8". and then that gap between the pool frame and wood beam is approx 2-3"

Basically it was a straight out switch,, i did buy few other connectors to make life easier. The Intex 633T (2500gph) i bought was only $150 .I'm happy with it so far,, just realizing that there's more cartridge filter cleaning at the beginning of the season lol Saying that you could go the...

yeah,, i mean it does the job,,, barely,, but within a few months i picke up a intex 633T, worked so much better.
