Oh yeah, it’s new. Never even been plugged in. We noticed it as the pool was filling. I just wasn’t sure if this was an issue big enough to send it in for repair. Even though I feel like it is, didn’t want to make a fuss over a super simple fix.

Today we attempted to connect our pump and as the water started to fill the lines we immediately noticed a drip from the pump motor. This is not a part we assembled, bran new pump never been turned on. Anyone else have this? Someone mentioned maybe a shaft seal when I asked in a fb pool group...

Anyone had this happen to one of their boots? Cause for alarm? Pool is full, all else looks good. Looks like the tip got hung on the paver as the walls pushed back while filling.

You’ve been very helpful on my posts, thank you. One more question- shoukd the metal pool wall be snug against the rail track all the way around? I have spots where it’s snug and spots where I could put a toothpick between wall and track. Should I be alarmed or do they naturally push out where...

So that outer ring is just topsoil up to the track, but not over the track. As you can see, the grass is still growing in all over the yard from the whole regrade project.

Has anyone here used pavers (dug into ground and leveled) around the entire circumference? I’ve only found a few references online, just curious. Picture attached to show what I’m talking about, not my picture.

Our above ground pool was part of a total back yard project where we had the whole yard regraded, all grass removed, a Crud ton of dirt removed, and laser leveled professionally. Once all that was done, they marked off the perimeter of the pool site and we planted new grass around it. Because...

Holding my breath, but I believe we made it. Day 3 of filling after having the liner out and in the shed for 9 days. I’ve only been filling during the hottest part of the day and today I reached the point we can do the skimmer. Will be soooo glad when this is over. The random noises coming...

Yeah it kinda sounds like maybe the noise of the metal wall pushing out to expand against the posts as the water reaches different levels. A couple posts had a slight space between wall and post and that’s corrected now on the lower section with water. Just don’t recall our former intex making a...

Is it normal to hear random noises as an above ground metal wall pool fills for the first time? Not constant noises, I just noticed as I was outside working that I would hear little noises coming from the pool. It has about 2.5’ of water in it, filling only during direct sunlight.
