So I’m finally getting my pool set up (better late than never....long story and I am not happy about it!) and bought a Hayward in-wall skimmer (see model in my signature). I know there’s a million tutorials on how to install it but I’m getting conflicting info on two of my questions...
1. Do we need to cut and install the skimmer before or after filling the pool to a certain point? This part makes me nervous.
2. If we can’t get the in-wall skimmer installed until this weekend (husband is off work after working a month straight!) but are putting the pool up tomorrow (Wednesday), what should I do? Buy a regular surface mount skimmer for the meantime or just use a net skimmer until the in-wall one is installed?
My pool is in my signature. What a nightmare the preparation has been so far but I’m praying it’ll all be worth it. Any additional tips and tricks for a new Intex Ultra Frame owner would also be VERY much appreciated! Thanks in advance!!
