Intex Legs

[Rj7]

Hello,
I have a 12ft round intex pool that i setup at the weekend on a concrete pad. I have been out this morning to check it over now it’s filled and have noticed 3 of the legs are leaning in and not level, my question is can i carefully pull these out until they are level?

Welcome to the forum!
Let's ask @jseyfert3 as he has this type of pool.
I suggest you read ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry.

My pool is a lot bigger, slightly different (but very similar) construction. On mine, the wall of the pool is pushing on the bottom of each leg. In your pictures the legs are already away from the wall of the pool. On the other legs does the wall touch the legs or are they all away from the wall of the pool?

Hi, thanks for your reply. There are only 2 legs that actually touch the liner and these legs are level according to my spirit level.

In that case it's probably fine to try to pull the legs out to get them vertical. I'm not sure if it's important, or if you'll even be able to get them to move. They can have a lot of weight on them.

I will try and pull them out slightly later, if they don’t move would you think they are be fine as they are and just monitor them?

 

[jseyfert3]

I'd guess they would be fine so long as the pool is level. How level is the pool? Use the height of the water in the pool as a reference.

The pool is just over 1 inch off being level. Which i believe is acceptable?

I have a 10 foot round pool that is similar. Your pool should be fine at 1 inch out of level.

Thanks, i did read somewhere that up to 2 inches is acceptable. Just out of interested how do your legs sit on your 10ft round pool?

Yes that is fine. I suspect your legs are fine as is.

Brilliant, thanks for your help.
