Had my water tested and the salt level is at 6000 so it’s high but I’m still getting the low salt error.

Last year our Intex SWG went out and of course due to the pandemic EVERYONE bought pools so we purchased and installed a new Intex CO6220 this year. We have a 16X32X53 pool and this weekend when we opened the pool I put in 11 bags of salt as needed to start up. (We used chlorine last year since...

Hello!! Last year we upgraded to the Ultra XTR 36X16 rectangle pool and we love it. The pool is partially in the ground and this year we are planning on building steps/decking along one side for easy entry and exit. We would like to use some of the steps that I've seen online, however, my...

So I’m guessing the only way to fix my issue is to put the large valve in....really didn’t want to cut my pool but guess that’s my only option....

why does Intex change something that worked just fine?? We’ve owned Intex pools for years (we are on our 4th pool) and have never had issues until now. We purchased a 32x16 rectangle this year and they have changed the intake valve! Now there are two small intakes instead of one large. Didn’t...

Yes, we had a cold snap so we went ahead and closed it and then the temps rose back to the high 80s for a couple of weeks. So I’d say I do have an algae bloom...

We used a mesh cover this year (trying something new) and the pool has been closed for over a month, but have noticed that it is emitting an awful odor. Is this normal? Will it fade? Of not what do I need to do if anything??

we live in Bowling Green (close to Clarksville) and we've had an Intex for about 6 years. We don't take ours down - we drain some, plug up the intake/output and remove all the hoses. This year we are using a leaf net to cover the pool along with the net we put up around the pool to keep a lot...

that's what we're planning on using instead of a cover. We face a huge field and no matter how much we tie the cover down, it never fails that wind gets under it and we end up with the disgusting contents in the pool which totally defeats the purpose of the cover!

We're looking at purchasing a leaf net to cover our pool to keep most of the leaves/debris out while the leaves fall. Anyone have one or used one? They're fairly reasonable to purchase, so just curious what other people have experienced with them

Yeah I know - there's not a Walmart within 2 hours that had one in stock. ?? think we are just going to finish out the next couple of weeks with some chlorine tabs and buy and new one for next year.

Yes I've cleaned the cell- it's clean.

so I am getting the Low Salt message (even though I know we are not low on salt) and I believe it's the sensor. Why does Intex not make it so that it's just an alarm and doesn't turn it's self off??? Any ideas on how to disconnect the sensor? I hate to have to purchase a new SWG again (lines...

thinking I might need to go get one to have on hand!
