I just set up our Intex 15'x42" ag pool over the weekend. I went over the ground almost with a fine tooth comb but we got in for a dip today and there are 2 rocks about the size of a nickel under the liner
I would really hate to drain the pool as we are on a well and it took 3 days to fill....can a patch we applied to reinforce the liner right above the rocks? I think there is a patch that can be applied underwater, correct??
And for next year...what can be used as a pad under the pool to prevent this from happening?
I am really happy with the pool so far...if we can get one seasons use out of it I will be happy. This is my intro to pool care, so the Intex is my practice for taking care of an in ground in the next year or two
TIA! Charlene
Hello all.
I've had the same issue. Went over my ground with a fine tooth comb and thought I had all the rocks, stones, bamboo roots and even broken glass. Now that's scary.
I filled my pool only a foot and kept it that way for about three days. Figure I let the pool settle a bit. Then I noticed the rocks.
Emptied the pool and cleaned up what I could. However just as a piece of mind, I now have three oversized tarps underneath my INTEX 42 x 15 pool. I've had mine for 5 years. Recently upgraded to the ULTRA FRAME. Just to note, I do not use sand. Sand seems to shift a bit from my experience making my INTEX uneven.
