Hello, I'm new to this forum so I hope I'm posting this in the correct place. I have been considering getting one of those Intex pools (the 20' x 12' x 48" Oval Frame Easy Set) and I was wondering about how expensive it would be to run a month? My house also has some electrical issues where if too much is running at one time switches will flip. Does anyone know if this is a very electrically demanding pool? My parents used to have metal wall swimming pool with a large pump and they were able to run it, but they couldn't run the washer/dryer at the same time.
I'd appreciate any input. Thank you.
edit: Some additional questions I have as far as costs are about how much should I expect to spend in chemicals monthly? I read through pool school and from what I understand the basic chemicals, to be used as needed, are bleach, liquid chlorine, borax, baking soda, cyanuric acid and muriatic acid. Are all of these necessary for a pool of this size/type? I am trying to put together a shopping list.
Also, for a pool this size, what test kit would you recommend?
