    22' Coleman Swim Vista Pool

    Yeah I've searched but not really seeing anyone actually fixing the issue. Would prefer one without the windows but haven't found anything in that size. Really just wanting to know if its worth siliconing them upon first set up.

    22' Coleman Swim Vista Pool

    Anyone here own one? Looking to see if you had issues with the windows and if you did how did you over come the leaks?

    Ridiculously Over sized but will it work?

    Haven’t run across one in that price range with duel speed. I’ll keep looking tho

    It is. We’ll have to drive 400 miles in the truck to get it but we’ll just make it another vacation lol

    Ridiculously Over sized but will it work?

    Ok so I’ve been poking around looking for a better sand filter and pump set. While most think their old stuff should fetch close to new prices I’ve been hitting dead ends all in the pursuit of that perfect deal. While we were on vacation we were visiting some family that sadly filled their pool...

    Solar covers

    Thanks for the pics. Might have to steal a version of that idea!

    Sounds like a good idea any chance of a pic or two?

    Solar covers

    What does everyone do with their covers while they swim? Looking for ideas of other fold it up and sticking it on the deck, what I’m currently doing. Just feel like it takes up to much space up there and I don’t want it on the ground due to dirt and what not.

    Pump acting iffy

    I keep having to turn the our pump off and put it on the rinse cycle for a few mins to get the volume back on the filter setting. Not all the time but way more than we ever had in previous years. I know it’s plumbed right and new sand this year, not over max when I filled the filter up. Is it...

    Guess the next round of upgrades are in order

    Yeah I’ve been looking on the buy and sell and there’s a few but they all look horrible and they want really close to new prices. I’ll keep my ears to the ground and see what I can find

    Guess the next round of upgrades are in order

    Yeah both to those Hayward say they are duel speeds. Just wondering if 1hp is enough or is 1.5hp to much. Looks like you have a similar pool to what we are want to put up next year. Thanks for the recommendations, so far haven't come across anything used.

    Guess the next round of upgrades are in order

    Old Intex pump is starting to show its age and switch is broke (Still need to take it apart to see). Current pool it a little 14' but next season we are going to upgrade to a 22' pool once we get our area prepped and secured. Looking at these two pumps as possible replacements. Hayward...

    Guess the next round of upgrades are in order

    So looks like it time to really start thinking about upgrading our pump. Currently have Intex Krystal Clear 3000gph pump set up. Old girl is going on her fourth season and is starting to go full Christine on us by either cutting off or randomly cut on, plus the flow hasn't been what it was when...

    DOA this year.

    Believe it or not I found the hole once I drained it down. Patches up and refilled. Came out to low water again so really started hunting. Found a few more. Patches up for now. Fingers crossed I can keep it together for the season.

    DOA this year.

    Yeah it was more about time line. Almost drained down. Going to get in and do a real good visual check one last time before I can it. Really just want/need it to last this season. Going larger next season after new fence configuration is done.

    DOA this year.

    Yeah that’s what we’re going to do I think. Just tested our well water and has good numbers. Originally filled with city water so I guess that was a pricy lesson on fill a little and check leaks. Only thing is that Wally World doesn’t have an intex on hand only summer waves. Looks about the...

    DOA this year.

    So quick short run down of the history. We have a little Intex 14x42, it's been a great pool for years. Last year about this time we had take it down due to moving. Fast forward to now (move, major hurricane, probable crappy storage method, and life) I finally got it up at the new house on level...

    Possible chemistry or equipment issue

    Rookie mistake I didn't turn off the SWG. Ugh lost 5FC over the day. Brought me down to FC15 brought it back up to 20 tonight. Had enough for one more test. Restock comes tomorrow so I'll be able to test at will. Praying for good numbers so I can soak Sunday while the smoker is going!!

    Possible chemistry or equipment issue

    Thanks. Yeah if the test is good in the am just need to get the FC down below shock is all. Water is crystal clear and PH is 7.5. Raising the CYA from 50 to its target of 70 should drop me under shock levels so I can meet all three goals and float this Father's Day [emoji51][emoji482]

    Possible chemistry or equipment issue

    Yeah had me stumped to. I guess deep down I knew a slam was in order but didn't want to take the time lol. Mine was pretty quick, well I hope so at least. Just ran the numbers again at 11 tonight and holding at FC23 and CC0. I've got enough to run one more test in the am but then I'm out till my...

    Possible chemistry or equipment issue

    Somehow I knew that was going to be the answer. Just needed someone else to say it lol

    Possible chemistry or equipment issue

    Yeah I was thinking maybe a possible broken lateral but it's slimy like algae but with good FC numbers I'm stumped.
