Hi all,
I need some help and/or advice.
Last year, I put up a Summer Waves 14’ x 42” pool in my back yard (set up as a summer pool) and took it down at the end of September. I’m a little over six weeks away from putting it up again and have some questions.
At the advise of many, I upgraded the pool filter skimmer with that of an Intex Sand filter - and it kept the water crystal clear all season long.
My question comes with the pool sand. I’ve read conflicting information. One - it’s good for three years or so (but this is for continual run pools, it seems??) or two) to replace it every season.
As I am getting everything ready for this season (April 15th!!!), I am needing advice on what to do. Replace it or keep it (the sand)?
I did all the work when I closed it down - backwashed, drained and let drain out for three days - then capped it and put it in my garage - where it has been since October.
I welcome any and all feedback.
Thank you.
