Hello, I could use some guidance on determining the right time to open our pool. We've had it for a couple years but last Fall is the first time I've gotten it covered before the leaves fell. I've peeked under the cover and it looks worlds better than it did last year at this time (it was black...

Sometime in the next couple of days I'll have our ground ready to start putting up the pool, and I'm wondering if I can install the pavers ahead of time. I know there are 16 legs with this pool, but have no idea of the distance between each pole. For that matter, I also don't know where the 16'...

Hello, I'm new to the site. We purchased a used Intex 16' above-ground pool recently, and I'm in the process of prepping the ground for the pool. We had a smaller pool a few years ago for a summer or two.
