To answer your question on the wood grain, the legs should sit perpendicular to the wood grain. We have the same 9x18 intex pool, and we used the 16x16 2" thick riverfront pavers from menards instead of wood, for similar reasons... slow draining soil, and concerns that the wood won't last a season.

They are 16x16, 2"thick. Got them at Menards

We considered something like this at first, but then decided against it. PVC pipes have a fairly low weight bearing capability. A 1' section of 2" PVC can only bear 70lbs (Pipe Load Guide). Even if you have the weight distributed over 4 pipes (made in a square to rest a step on it), a 1x1 foot...

TBH, I would be a little concerned. While 3" does not sound like much, if you do the math, that is a lot of additional weight concentrated on one side of your pool... like about 625lbs of weight... and that's when the water stands still. If people are in the pool and the water sloshes around...

These are the pavers under the legs at the highest point of our lawn This is at the opposite side of the pool (lowest point in our lawn).

Fellow n00b here. First time pool owner in WI. Not sure what kind of pool you have, but ours is a metal frame above ground pool; the kind where the legs angle out from the pool. Instead of leveling the entire area of the pool, I sunk the pavers where the legs will rest so that the frame of the...

I'm in Wisconsin. We plan to take our pool down this fall and recheck (and re-level if needed) the pavers when we set the pool up again in spring. Regardless of pavers or wood supports, the amount of buckling and heaving in the ground due to the permafrost, I think annual re-leveling is simply...

Not sure... Up here in Wisconsin, we found it heavily discounted at Fleet Farm a few weeks ago. Seems to be a popular item this year...

We have the exact same size pool as you do, and we are using 24x24x2 pavers for the legs. In the lowest spot where the pool is, the paver is barely sunk in (like about 1"). Since our ground is somewhat unlevel, we had to sink all the other ones (pic). If the pool you have is the same kind as our...
