Yes, we are crazy. We are putting up our first pool, and bought the biggest one we could afford! We already have a plan for leveling (grading, sand - foam - tarp with concrete pads under feet), but quickly realized the pump and filter that came with the pool are woefully inadequate.
Since we are new to this - and not terribly bright, as you have probably guessed - we are hopeful that the good people here will give us some advice about purchasing an adequate sand filter, pump and salt water system for this pool. We are hoping for something compatible, because the thought of trying to figure out fittings, etc., intimidates us to say the least. We are both nurses, so neither of us are very handy beyond the human body!
Any and all advice is welcome. We were planning to use foam sheets triple reinforced with Gorilla tape directly over the graded sand and covered with a good tarp - but if this isn't the best plan, we would appreciate hearing about that too.
Thanks in advance - so glad we found this forum!
