I had somebody out and they maybe stopped a little early - they mentioned fear of getting the equipment stuck. There is a small soft spot. picture How can I finish this off without too much additional work? There are treads from the equipment in the site. I was thinking maybe I can get away...

The sand filter pump is rated for up to 8500 gallons which is the size of the pool. Is it worth changing out? I plan to add the Intex deluxe skimmer, plug the other outlet per the skimmer instructions and have the positive Intex auto cleaner vacuum as well in addition to the larger size Intex...

Anybody get by on a 1/2" polystyrene board + tarp? I grabbed a new 12x24 for a great price and I will feel weird if I spent nearly the same on the base. I've read many forums, so I plan to level the ground and use pavers on feet and etc.... As with prices of most things you know material cost...

I have the intex pool (12x24) - anybody share their experience knocking out 12+inch depth to level the ground? I'd prefer not having big machinery as that adds cost and I was hoping to keep installation costs at a minimum. I do have a ryobi tiller/cultivator, maybe that'll make it easier? The...

I have nooo clue where my flange clamp is for my intex sand filter. I had some ratcheting clamps (4" and 6") and unfortunately there isn't enough surface to grip on to hold the top onto the sand reservoir. I have a replacement on order but that may take nearly two weeks, so any other tricks...

I am hoping to vacuum to waste by removing the filter and disconnecting the return if the algae settles to the bottom. I removed the filter in order to prevent filter clog up during the algae cleaning process - i have a cheap above ground pool (~1400 gallons of water) from big box store that has...

Finally got my TA down ~90 ppm after accidentally adding too much baking soda. Now am considering what to do about my FC, TC, and CYA levels. I got a false reading once that those were all near zero so i added a bleach and stabilizer and now: FC - 8 TC - 8 CYA - 80 Should I worry about...
