I’ve put my 12ft best way metal framed pool up today and it appears we have a leak ? What is the best way to locate the hole ? It’s taken about 5 hours for the water to appear and is obviously flowing from the lowest part of the floor.

oohhhh That is Lovely :-)

Looking even better :-)

Love it! I'm hoping to hook up a Solar Pod & we've been looking at getting an event shelter :-)

Thanks Isaac. Another thought, for the cost of the pump & solar panels, should I just invest in one of the cheaper heat pumps?

Thanks for your input. This is driving me a little crazy. I feel like I won't know, til I've bought the stuff & set it up, to see if it will work & if not I'll have to empty the pool & resite things. Which isn't the end of the world, I guess, but it seemed like it, when I couldn't sleep last...

I nearly went for that pool. Please post lots of pics :)

That looks lovely :cool:

That is NICE!

Hi everyone, I've been purposefully missing for a couple of months, I'll explain when I do a catch up thread - putting the new pool up ;) We've bought a Bestway 12' 48' metal frame for now :D I want to put some solar heating on the roof of our one storey, flat roofed, kitchen extension, it's...

I've had an intex easy set & metal frame pools up, over the last 2 summers on a concrete base. I used EVA camping mats with no bother. Solid ones underneaths & 'holey' ones around the outside.

I use EVA foam camping tiles. The sort that fit together. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm laughing at least three foot clear, if I'd had to have three foot clear, I wouldn't of been able to fit my 8ft Easy Set in :-D It's a small garden. About 14ft wide. I appreciate the points about maintenance though, I hadn't properly considered that. I don't think I'd need any more than a...
