    Pool pump and timer question

    I'm starting to believe that a timer would be a handy addition. I bought a plug in outdoor timer, like what I'd get for Christmas lights. I was going to post to see if I was ok to hook it up as our pump said to rinse it each time you start it. I see several posts about specific brands and it...

    Sand vs Foam pool set up question

    We are FINALLY getting ready to install our 25.5x13 Splash pool. We are going to excavate 1-2 feet of soil to get the height at the desired place & get a level ground. We were thinking of adding sand on top of the soil but have seen posts about using foam board. Is this done instead of sand...
