Any problem with me adding liquid chlorine while my automatic vacuum is running/attached to the return jet for 12 hours at night? I’m wondering if the chlorine won’t circulate as well while the vacuum is attached. So far I’ve only ever added chlorine when the vacuum is not attached.

I have an Intex 12 x 24 rectangular pool up and running for over a month now and the water has been crystal clear, numbers have consistently looked good. I’ve been following the Pool Math app religiously and using 12.5% liquid chlorine daily and keeping up with granular CYA. Vacuum and brush...

I have a 12’ x 24’ Intex above ground pool, 8,400 gallons & no SWG, 3000 GPH Sand filter pump. Brand new pool filled earlier this week and I’m currently using 12.5% liquid chlorine and dry CYA. How much of both should I keep on hand at all times? How much muriatic acid? Any other chemicals that...

I am concerned about my new Intex 12' x 24' x 52" rectangular Ultraframe that has been filled two days and sits immediately downhill from an 18 inch slope that was dug out on one side to level the pool. The contractor was only responsible for getting the ground leveled with a bobcat. I had to...

I finally got my 12 x 24 Intex Ultraframe up and running yesterday. The problem is that the Intex flexible hose I am using for backwashing with the Intex Krystal Clear sand filter pump is way too short for my particular yard. The hose looks to be about 3 or 4 feet and I need a minimum of a 12...

Completely newbie question. I'm almost finished setting up my Intex Ultra12x24 Retangular Pool and now need to install the filter/pump. I was wondering if I could move the Krystal Clear Sand Filter/Pump over by 10 feet away from the intake and returns, so that it would sit at the corner of the...

I've searched all over the forums and online and still trying to come up with a Dog Ramp option to get my 100 lb Golden Retriever into our brand new Intex Rectangular Ultra Frame 12 x 24 x 52 pool. We are not installing a deck. I would like to either buy or DIY something that will allow my dog...

I’m in the middle of installing the Intex Rectangular Ultra Frame 12x24x52 and have a really basic install question. Liner is fully spread out. Upper metal Frame and U-supports are now all assembled to the liner. HERE IS WHERE I’M STUCK: For one entire long side of pool, I connected the liner...

Can’t find Pool sand anywhere locally this week I guess due to upcoming Memorial Day weekend and somehow Amazon managed to damage all three of my 50 pound bags of pool sand yesterday to the point where they’re undeliverable/ returning to HTH. Leslies only has Zeo sand in stock. I’ve tried...

Can anyone confirm if 2 inch concrete Wall cap block is any less durable (prone to snapping) than regular 2inch concrete pavers of the same dimension? Tomorrow I’m installing the pavers to go under the metal support brackets for my new Intex Rectangular 24x12x52 pool (digging pavers level with...
