Hi all,
I have a question, hope someone can help
I installed an INTEX Ultra XTR 9x18 and after it filed up I noticed that couple of side legs are leaning towards one end, they are not 100% vertical.
Now, the strange thing is the pool is mostly leveled with only 1 corner being about 1 inch lower, and the leg tilt is opposite to the lowest corner which is counter-intuitive and confuses me. From what i understood reading countless posts about tilting legs, usually, legs tilt towards the low point since the water pressure is bigger at the lowest wall when in my case the top parts of the tilted legs are tilted towards the high corner
Which leaves me thinking that the legs possibly were tilted from the beginning, because when i was filling it up i made sure that legs are pushed out as much as possible per the instruction video but honestly i don't remember checking that the legs are vertical or have a tilt, also while filling with the water the pool frame bends inside and it's hard to notice if the legs are not 100% vertical.
The pool is installed on the leveled ground using about 2 inches of compacted stone dust, i also used interlocking gym rubber tiles under it.
When inspecting the base of the tilted legs i don't see any signs of a leg movement on the ground, also pool itself doesn't look like leaning, it more feels like the liner is not well positioned and shifted to the high side
