Just put up an Intex Easy Set pool a few days ago. Will I need a filter if I don't want to dump it every few weeks or can I get by without one? I am testing and adding chemicals to it. TX!

Has anyone looped their radio fence around the pool to keep the dog out of the pool? Just curious if this can be done without causing an issue. TX! SC

Hi All, I have been using this test kit for a few years. How often should the test bottles be replaced? Do they expire? Where should the kit be stored? The chemicals give off a bit of an odor, so I store it in the garage (which can get hot), is that ok? Thanks! SunCountry

New Vinyl Pool Build – PA – Decision Time 3 very different proposals somewhat complete – details vary by builder. There are so many details, decisions and hard to keep everything straight!! I don’t have all the specific part numbers yet. I am trying to finalize decisions, details and check...

I see a lot of vinyl pool pictures that use pavers instead of concrete. However when I asked PB about it, he said that pavers could not be done because with our pool the ground around it could not be compacted without damaging the steel walls. Has anyone else encountered this? Should I look...

We are in the process of taking down our 20+ year AGP. Toying with the idea of making the next pool in ground. Has anyone else done this when you were in 50's or 60's? What was your thought process on it? I am just thinking at some point we won't be able to take care of it ourselves or want...

Long time pool owner possibly looking for replacement. I was looking at Doughboy as a replacement and noticed the following disclaimer. At first I was thinking there was concern about the pool failing/bursting. On second glance it is probably trying to avoid people getting hurt by doing...

I have a Sharkline pool 48"x28'. About 20 years old. When is it time to take down or replace? I am the main person that uses it and takes care of it. In my 50s and think I may be ready to give it up.. but not sure. How do I know when the pool is too old? We do have some rust spots under...
