    Cover while on vacation?

    Hi, we have an Intex ultra frame 14x42 for about 2 weeks now. When we go on vacation for a week this summer should we put the cover on? I Plan on setting pump on timer while gone. Thanks

    my legs are wavy

    They are all on the ground. When you look at the pool from eye level some are just slightly higher than others. When I measure from bottom of pool to top of water am off by 1". If I measure from top of water to top of liner am off a little more than that since some legs are higher. I plan on...

    my legs are wavy

    Hi. Put up the intex 14x42 pool 2 days ago and even though my water level is off by 1" some of my legs are higher while some are lower. If I measure from the top of water to top of liner there is more than 1" deferences. In another thread I mention that a few legs missed the pavers, those are...

    Filling up.. 2 legs not on pavers.

    I think I might do that. Nervous that the legs are right at the edge where the pavers are which is loose dirt since it was dug. Really want to get the legs under. Rain forecast for tomorrow. We shall see how it holds up. Right now I'm still off almost an inch.

    Filling up.. 2 legs not on pavers.

    Too full now to move. the ones that aren't on are currently the high side by about 1/2 inch so if it does sink on the side it would be better. I'll watch for now.

    Filling up.. 2 legs not on pavers.

    Hi. Filling up my intex 14x42 right now and I noticed 2 of the legs are not on the pavers anymore. (they were dug level with the ground). We have some pretty hard base anyway, was just trying to go the extra step. I have the pavers to far out from the pool, was scared for the to rub against the...

    what is the depth of the intex pool

    Hi, Looking at getting a 16 x 48 intex. I assume the the "walls' are 48" high. About what level does the water sit at? If my almost 8 year old can stand in it I might go for the 52" Thanks!

    How strong are Intex walls?

    Growing up we had an above ground pool with steel walls. Us kids always pushed off the wall to go from side to side. We are looking at an Intex 16 X 48 Ultra frame pool which of course only has the liner. If my kids (10 and 8)kick off the sides, will the pool handle it? Are they pretty tough...
