Thank you that’s what I figured haha

Hi all, ordered the 14” but thinking May be overkill for the 13 foot by 30 inch pool. I do want to eventually upgrade to a 14’ or 15x 42!inch model pool though in next year or 2. Which filter would you all pick?? I went with 14” because cheaper! Lol

Bump

Does this sound right Sand filters include 1.5 hoses 3-part B adapters for 1.25 to 1.5 hoses # 2 plunger valves #25010 mid robot vac doesn’t work they said use -#12486 but unsure of that piece lol

Hi all, catridge pump isn’t cutting it and need to upgrade. Can I run a 14” sand filter on a 12x30 metal frame or too overkill? Want to upgrade pools once kids are a bit older but battling a neighbors tree it seems lol. looking at the below: not sure if I need hose adapters either or if...

thank you! Plan to plug 1 inlet eventually when pump upgrade happens and hopefully skimmer upgrade. Will try new clamps.

Thanks! Can’t wait to ditch filter and be ready for next year for now this will do. I did unhook and check the orings and all was good, will try real clamps not three ones.

Threaded tape wouldn’t work at it’s not a threaded connection, slip/clamp connection. Also disconnected and re-connected but still leaking.

Seems to be seated properly, I will snap a pic tomorrow and post.

Just waiting on a deal for a sand filter, can’t justify $400+ on intex when my last 2500 gph was$180.

This, I did the level zip tied to a board then checked pavers w water level. All within 3/4” inch. Spent 3 weekends prepping tho

🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello, rather use flex lines to avoid hard pipe with this little filter. Yes , 15x48 old and 12x30 new.

Also better to add plunger and only have 1 inlet vs the “T”?

Have a 12x30 intex. 1 hose leaks on pump and the “T” adapter. I tried to Remove and silicone grease the o rings but still leaks. What opther option? Clamp can’t go any tighter. also I’d like to add plunger valves when I clean cartridge filter (believe 1.25” hose) until I get a sand pump. What...

Good work! What filter adapters are you using, the type B? Are you using a plunger/ball valve at all?

Found a old post actually apparently it’s new sinxe 2020 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ordered a intex 12x30 from amazon and in the process of setting up. My old ultra frame pool had clips on the top rail ring into the T connectors. It was a 15x48 but after YouTubing i see 10x30 with “clips” they added. Mine has holes on one end of the top rails but the T has no hole. Is this safe...

Thank you no just a little 12’x30” for now...

Hi all, started the dig last weekend for our 12x30 pool. Almost level and ordered sand but going foam route as leaving pool up and better for the kiddos! What’s the best way to make a template for the pool? Best tape to use? How do I place my 12x12x2” pavers with the 1” foam? Dig down 1” and...

Following! Was going to post this same question for my 12x30! Let me know how it works!

Thank you! Do most use foam and sand or just foam?

Can someone confirm if this is correct foam? Also where do you put the pavers?

So is this the right foam board?

What foam is everyone using? Before was foam from Home Depot but now it’s xps foam, whatever that is? Lol

Getting my 12x30 intex tomorrow, had a 15x48 few years ago. Putting in same area but have to re-level. What foam is everyone using? Do people use sand then foam or 1 or other? Mia a 12x30 too small to do the in wall Hayward skimmer mod?

bump!

Hi all, looking for yard ideas with a fence to keep the pool safe for our 2 and 4 year old. I was looking at the 4x12 retractable fencing but 1 section is in lawn so need mounting ideas unless I pour concrete for the poles or other ideas. Not too fond of the stick up from pool supports...

Hi TFP! Had a Ultra frame i got for $280 back in 2014 but got rid of it. I currently have a 15x48 Intex Prism in a box while I prep the ground/figure out yard design. Is the Intex Ultra (15x48) at Kmart an 1.5 away for $380 better than the Intex PrisM (15x48) i got from Target...
