    Intex UF 20 x 48 - Legs not centered in liner opening

    Hiya, Do the legs/tbar need to be completely centered in liner opening? Somehow this year, we ended up with the situation in the photo, with them off all the way around, of course. Start all over?

    Tricks for draining the last 5-6 inches of water...

    I have the hose hooked up to the pool for the normal draining with the Intex adapter. I was looking for a fast way so we can start working on the ground under it faster. Turns out a neighbor has a pump they use for their pool so I just borrowed it and am going to get it doing shortly. Thx!

    Tricks for draining the last 5-6 inches of water...

    So, I didn't end up needing the sump pump I had bought so I returned it. We thought we made a decent enough fix to get by for 6 weeks or so and then refilled the pool. It wasn't a decent enough fix and was about 2 inches off on one side still. But, today, I noticed a T joint was undone and when...

    Tricks for draining the last 5-6 inches of water...

    Thx so much! I was researching online as well and saw some videos of folks using this one and they just opened a Harbor Freight near us and I have a 20% off coupon. It would only be used for helping to drain the pool at the end of each season so hopefully, it will do the trick. 1/4 HP...

    Help With Greenhead Fly Control Around Our Pool

    Hi there, We are in NW NJ and have been dealing with it as well. We were wondering if burning tiki torches around the pool would help at all? Haven't tried it yet because we are dealing with a leveling issue and are draining to try and temporarily fix that (fingers crossed our plan for that will...

    20x48 Intex UF-filled, not level, leg shifted, oh my.

    Hi there, 3 years ago, without doing any research first, my brother helped create a level area for us to put our Intex pool up using paver powder. In hindsight, it sucks we spent that $, and now we realize he should have dug down into the lawn. It was off about an inch or a little less but...

    Intex Deluxe Skimmer and vacuum hook up????????

    Well, the skimmer plate did not work for my floating intex skimmer. It just wouldn't stay on there and even when I had my daughter hold it in, there was not enough suction. There are different versions of the intex skimmer so I guess that's the problem. I am getting ready to pull to trigger on...

    Ok then. I will order it. Fingers crossed my skimmer is the same version as yours. I will measure it shortly to see. I read that people remove the basket to vacuum. Do you? Thx!!!!!!

    Intex Deluxe Skimmer and vacuum hook up????????

    Yes! So that allows you to vacuum into your skimmer basket? Darn. Just read reviews on Amazon for this one and it does not fit the Intex skimmer.

    Intex Deluxe Skimmer and vacuum hook up????????

    Ok-here is the piece I have. I have removed it from inside the pool for the picture, but you can see it has a piece that goes into my outlet hose when it is in position in the pool. The hose that came with my wall mounted skimmer fits perfectly onto the end inside the pool. Is there a vacuum...

    Intex Deluxe Skimmer and vacuum hook up????????

    I am also re-reading manuals and according to the Wall Mount manual, my blue part, which I thought was Hose Adaptor B, did not screw into the strainer connector-it just inserted into the outlet hose that runs to the filter. I will try and take a quick picture and post shortly.
