I have the pool factory saltwater 8000 in Jacksonville Florida. It’s on the third year and doing well. semi in ground install. still need to build a deck.

I live in a historic district that charges $100 an inch mitigation fees if you cut down a native tree. I had to get permission to remove two Chinese tallow trees and thankfully didn't have to pay the fee. These types of rules are part of preserving the urban forest canopy that keeps our cities...

Re: 15' round pool agp.Need help with sand vacuuming. Yesterday, 07:41 PMjaxhusky 15' round pool agp. Need help with sand vacuuming. All, I need recommendations for a pool cleaner. I have at least two huskies swimming multiple times a day. I just upgraded from the intex sand 1600gph pump and...

i am happy with the quality of the saltwater 8000 15' is good enough for our tiny backyard. we could squeeze in an 18 but would leave less than 3 feet between pool and fence. pool factory.com was great. also almost bought the sharkline matrix from inyo pools very close to buying from them...

All, I need recommendations for a pool cleaner. I have at least two huskies swimming multiple times a day. I just upgraded from the intex sand 1600gph pump and filter to a Hayward Xtream 150 and a 1.5 hp pump. I know the pump is oversized but I only run about 6 hours a day and I want to put...

I just got a saltwater 8000 from the pool factory. From order time to delivery was one week. My installers almost always install locally purchased pools and they were very impressed with the quality of this s pool compared to local offerings. I really wanted to buy local but the two stores I...

Just did that with our new saltwater 8000. pics are in my post about it today. we went halfway but I would like to have out it even deeper. We will be extending our deck platform 18" high around the spa and to the pool. This will leave about 1 foot above the deck. I think I will really like...

Just got this installed two weeks ago and have finished manually backfilling. The backfill was tough. 15' round 54" deep, aqualeader with confer 1 steps and Casey's portofino liner. Buried about 24 to 27" deep. Using my intex sand filter, pump and swg til they die. The swim line portofino...

Rust everywhere starting at t joints. I'm going to try to post from photobucket. I am a chemist by profession and I manage my water extremely well with multiple dogs and kids swimming. I have had pools all my life. Rust just starting here. Initial pool setup in July 2015

If you have an intex pool I would not recommend using the salt system. Our ultra lasted 1 year before it was eaten through with rust. Just replaced with a saltwater 8000 aqua leader pool from the pool factory and I hope it lasts. Our first intex ultra lasted 4 years before a root poked through...

Taterfink, how are your pool's metal parts?. My ultra intex is rusting severely in Jax after only one year with swg. This is the dogs pool primarily so it gets salt water splashed on the components frequently. But it looks terrible compared to our previous ultra intex without salt

Re: Question about dropping Intex Ultra Frame 16 x 32 into ground just 12"-24"?? Thanks we might try that

Re: Question about dropping Intex Ultra Frame 16 x 32 into ground just 12"-24"?? Thank you. The dogs love the pool

Re: Question about dropping Intex Ultra Frame 16 x 32 into ground just 12"-24"?? the sleep number platform is under an old Seagrass rug for traction. Unfortunately I have to secure the platform in the water to the pool uprights a bit better as both dogs tipped it wrestling today. It wasn't...

Re: Question about dropping Intex Ultra Frame 16 x 32 into ground just 12"-24"?? We went with a 14'x42" intex for our pups. Wanted to bury it 18" but only dug about 8" down by hand and decided it was good enough for now. It is easy to get in or stand outside and reach in to assist the dogs...

way to go Adam! You are my hero! I wish my kids were half as ambitious as you. I can't even get them to vacuum my pool most of the time :)

Thanks for the advice. I think I will upgrade the pump/filter combo and then try the solar. I am in florida so one panel may be enough to get it warmer.

I have the intex ultra 9 x 18 pool. I really like it so far, but I am contemplating a solar heater. We are at 84 deg right now, but with 95+ outside temps, everyone wants the pool a little warmer. I have had the pool over a month now, and I think I would like a bigger pump also. I have the...

Thanks for all the help. I think a thicker concrete block will do the trick. I guess we will drain and find out.

I live in Florida just installed 9x18 Intex metal frame on 16 x 16 x 1.5 pavers for under braces. Filled pool with water and three of the pavers have cracked completely through an suggestions on how to remove these crushed pavers and replace without having to drain the pool, two are on one end...
