    What to put under Intex 18x9x52 XTR pool installed on decomposed granite?

    Just bought my first AG pool (Intex 18x9x52 XTR) and not sure what to put under it. I will install it on the leveled decomposed granite (DG), in Sacramento, CA. The original soil under about 2 inches of DG is mostly hard pan (it's so hard that a small Bobcat could not level it). I was thinking...

    Can I put an Intex 2800 filter on my 9 x 18 intex pool?

    I have an 9 x 18 ultra xtr pool with the intex 1200 gph pump and sand filter; I also have the intex CG2667 SWG (which can be used with a 700-3200 gph pump). I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my pool. (I am a first-timer, can you tell?) It is in our shaded, wooded backyard and I keep an intex solar cover on...

    18x9x52 Intex ultra frame, placement of XPS and pavers?

    Hello, I’m almost all set getting the ground ready for my new pool. How many 8x4 XPS foam boards should I use to go under the pool, and will they line up with the pavers. I was thinking 4; that would give me an area of 8x16. Is that too short?
