I thought I was the only person that used baby oil for the rails.. Bro that baby oil worked perfectly and made the rails slide throw the lining so easy...
These pools are awesome. Our school has 2 of them. Our kids are so excited about coming to school every morning and its very economical for the school to have them. They are the real thing. We've posted some pictures of the same on our Facebook page. Thumbs up for intex.
We have the 16' x 48" pool, but we have the same sand filter/salt water system and we LOVE it! Good to know if we upsize the pool, the filter system will be able to handle it.
Man I could of used you 3 weeks ago I just found you damm this UA-cam anyway got my wrong answers from some no one but you're video help clear some things out thanx
I've watched your video at least 5 times. I'm waiting for our exact pool you got and I'm trying to learn all I can about them before it arrives. We paid alot more for ours try double the price you got yours. Might be a Covid thing, not sure. Thanks for the video.
Go Boston - I’m from New Bedford But I live in Arizona now - had a smaller pool but I really wanted to find more out about this pool as I need a bigger one I don’t want to do an in ground as it is so much money thanks so much for the review
By the way dont mind the accent at all. I just bought the same ladder my self. Thank you for the tip on the oil. Hopefully it will help getting it back out in fall.
Thanks for the video. Just for some information I have the 16 x 32 15,000 gallon Intex pool. I filled it with my city water. I was worried it would add a lot to my water bill but it only added about $70 or $80 to it. The local water delivery guy wanted over $600 to fill my pool. I do live in a different state, so water prices may be different. I also put some videos of my pool on UA-cam you can search (Kendee intex) to find them.
Great information. My Wife bought this pool and we are preparing for the installation. I think I will buy the salt generator as well. I checked out the link to the ladder you recommended, but it said not for Intex pools? I like how yours has the slide over the steps to keep kids out.
Great video! We have a similar pool setup in our home, now our little problem is with setting up the volleyball stuff, cos it came with no directions. We have same exact one as u got.
Thank you for a WONDERFUL video. Please tell me the brand and model of your ladder and where you purchased it if possible. Name and model would be great. Thank you!

Just got mine up and almost full of water but the water is pretty green, once i get the filters up and running will that take care of the green? Have you ever shocked yours?
On my 24 hour run to dissolve salt. So next i start my timer then run a boost right away? That part had me a little confused. It'll run for 48 hours straight then?
I don't live in Boston, but I am Italian. Never apologize for who you are Bro, Especially if you're Italian! But I'm thinking of getting this pool,but I've heard but the saltwater route isn't the best way to go, because it will rust your frame and and all this and that, so I'm torn on whether to go with chlorine or salt. That's really the only thing stopping me from taking the plunge right now, literally....
Hello I bought this pool and a bag of the salt. I filled up the container (still about 1/4 bag left) and ran the backwash and then the rinse. You said you used almost 200 pounds of salt. Can you explain how? Also I put in a floater with 2 chlorine tablets and 2 liters of hydrochloric acid. After doing that I noticed the next day that the little slime that was building almost disappeared. Thanks
If you bought the same one with a salt generator. You will need to add 210 pounds of salt directly in water. I don't know what container you are talking about. Let the salt dissolve for 24 hours bye running the sand pump only then turn on the salt generator, I would put it on boost if you have slime. I do not use any other chemicals in my pool. Check the PH level also, it might be to high or low. Hope this helps
We are in the process of trying to level the ground for the pool. Did you have to do any leveling? Oh yeah and no need to apologize for the accent. We Titletown man. They only hate us cuz they ain't us. Dorchester, Roxbury and currently Randolph...Stand up!
I checked the comments and I haven't seen my question asked yet. We're in the process of filling it in with water. As you were filling it in, did you notice the 24' sides bending inwards more than the 12' sides of the pool? I'm worried it the sides might cave in as the pool gets continues to get more full of water.
They start leaning in right away. As long as your pool is level and set up correctly. they will be fine, i have a couple videos of my pool filling. Thanks for watching..
Hello. Debbie from Reno, Nv. Just wondering how easy is it to take down this pool? We have the same one. We're are taking it down next month because it gets too cold in the winter. Any helpful hints? Thanks
Hi There! We are having someone come out to level our yard before getting the pool up for the first time. The instructions state its a requirment if the ground is not concrete to place pressure treated wood under each u shape support flush with the ground. It does not appear you did this, how is yours holding up? My concern is we would have to put the pool up just to see where the unshape supports are and mark the area so our contractor can strategically place these level with the ground. Just seems like a nightmare.
I put brick pavers , So broke while the water was filling. But they are fine. its not alot of work to locate them once the pool is up. As long as there is not water in it, You just lift the u shape peice up and place them under. Just make sure the pool is level. Hope this helps.. If you have any other tips,, Just ask, Thanks for watching
Just seen your video, just bought the same unit, just a few questions if I may, 1 did you install on a hard base? 2 do you not recommend pavers, 3 any other chemicals besides the salt? Thanks Kevin
We finished installing ours but the legs of one of the metal bars came off the board as the water filled I guess. Do I have to drain it and fix the legs? Not sure if this will become a problem and we are building a deck.
Thanks for making this video, extremely helpful. As this video has been out for close to 3 years, would you still recommend the pool? Also, are there any changes you've made since owning the pool such as upgrading the paving to something else that can withstand the weight or any other altercations you would recommend?
Hi! Thank you so much for the video! I'm so excited now to know I can install it with a few people. What did you do to prepare the ground? Did you put anything else under? Also, where did you get the water delivered from? Thanks so much!
getting ready to set up my 12x24 intex pool. it only came with a 12" sand filter system. I want a bigger filter system and I want saltwater. Any advice? Also is that vacuum sufficient?
www.amazon.com/dp/B07TN3JQ2P?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 This is the one i just bought. I will setting it up soon. i will have a video about it. Yes the vacuum works great. Thanks for watching...
I know this may be a stupid question but is this pool really 24 ft long on each side and 12 feet long on each end or is the measurement all the way around so the two lengths are appx 12 ft in length snd the two ends are 6ft
thanks for the video, it is very helpful, we just ordered one and want to build a box around it for leveling purposes, do you happen to know the measurement of the footprint including the support legs?
Hey there. Just wondering how long did it take to get your pool from eBay. I’m in Canada and eBay says shipping from china. Was going to buy new pool here but it’s a better deal online
I don't recall how long it took. I would say not over a week. Enjoy it when you do get it. if you have any question i would be happy to answer a pone set up. Thanks for watching..
@@limaniopasquale2579 yea man no problem video was really helpful. But wow ok I hear mix opinions whether to level the ground or not or just put it on top of the grass
Setting up pool, filter, and pump was pretty easy, filled and it was not level, drained.... used 2 x4 and level put pool back and put some water in and the far right side had more water so turned off water and came in house and just put down my head.
Besides draining below the intakes and covering do you do anything in addition to winterize your pool ? Like you, we live in the northeast and everything freezes during the winter.
Hey! Thanks for posted, I have a few questions if you don't mind. Looking at doing the same set up. Does the saltwater affect your grass? How's the pump/filter/liner holding up to the salt water?
So far so good, Here isthe link for the ladder. Hope our winter isint to bad this year!. Thanks for watching. www.amazon.com/Confer-Plastics-7200-Adjustable-Roll-Guard/dp/B001RUOUI0/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1547327359&sr=8-4&keywords=confer+plastics+ladder
How much space do you need around the pool, so Paver to paver what’s the true width and length after set up beyond the 12 /24 pool size? Any tricks or tips for leveling the ground before setup? Thanks so much for the video, very helpful.
After reading most of these questions and comments, I think people are mistaking Sand filter with a salt filter. This is our second Intex pool and I was wondering if we can just use the sand filter from our previous pool instead of the Salt generator? Also you said you broke 3 pavers and then replace thether following spring. What change did you make to the pavers?
I dint know how many gallons your old pool was or what the gallons per hour your filter is, so i cant answer that. If you don't use the salt generator you will need to use chemicals to keep the PH level. I dug out under them and put crushed rock. It helped none snapped last year filling. hope this helps
I would recommend taking it down. Just because are winters are so bad some times. It does come with a thick cover that you could use if not. I would Drain it passed the intake holes if you wanted to keep it up, and tie the cover down. Hope this helps..
Hello I appreciate your input. Is this the same size as your,Intex 24' x 12' x 52" Ultra Frame Rectangular Above Ground Swimming Pool with Sand Filter Pump ?
I have a fairly tight space where this will fit into. How much more space does the pool take up with the pool supports all the way out? If its a 12x 24 is it really 14x26 or even more?
I don't understand what you mean. If the walls of the pool are leaning in wile the water is filling they are suppose to they will straiten up as the water gets higher. If it is sinking into the ground i would stop right away
No it was sinking in while filling up sorry I wasn’t as specific . Yes it’s halfway full I was worried why it looked as it was sinking in while filling
Hi there, I bought this same pool and I'm worried about my corner joints. They do not fit and kind of slide in and out the the other metal frame poles. What can you do to secure the corner joints so that they do not move after your pool is filled?
How is the metal framing holding up since you are using salt water system on it? Wondering if poles are rusting out? Thinking about buying one and installing the saltwater system. Also did the salt water system come as an option?
The salt has not had any effect on the metal poles. If You see my video i just posted there is no rust at all. The salt water system is a option. My opinion salt is the only way to go. Thanks for watching
If you have all your side support pulled out all the way. you should be fine, The wall will straighten up. I have many videos of my pool filling on my channel. you can see it happen on them. Thanks for watching
We just bought one of these. Did you use an extension cord with the filtration system? Also, is there a cover that you recommend? We have lots of trees and wind, so looking for a good cover.
I use a heavy duty extension cord to an out side GFCI outlet. I don't use a cover in the summertime but this pool comes with one. I have a video on my channel that i did last month with the covers i use on it.
I'm back again, can you give an update on your pool? Is it still holding up? also, how's the pool closing process or if you take it down , how's that? If you take yours down, what do you do with the water? Thank you!
Maria Nunez The pool is holding up just fine no I do not take it down and actually leave the water in it. I drain it and I clean it and then I fill it with new water works perfectly thanks for watching.
Nice video.After the initial 200# of salt,how much do u have to add per week/month? I have only used chlorine so I have no idea how these salt pools work.Would you know if the manual gives instructions on winterizing for winter? Draining completely would be a deal breaker for me,considering the size of this pool and cost to refill yearly.Thanks much..
There is no need to add more salt after the first 200. It does come with a cover for the winter and you would need to just drain it passed the intake holes.
Hello, I was planning on getting the pavers and ladder for mine. On the pavers, did you find something that worked better or figure out why they snapped? On the ladder, I see some say it's a bit wobbly or doesn't fit in height, any experience there?
I dug out the pavers and put crushed rock under them. seems to help. The ladder is great i have no problem with it being wobbly or fitting in height. Hope this helps
Hey there...I really need some help understanding the 3 hole connection and what the parts are that go inside the pool for the hoses to connect to....could you give me a little more detail about that. I am so frustrated with this thing after reading the manual, watching the DVD that was sent that only showed 2 holes and also calling Intex Corp and they suggested watching you tube videos ...it's just crazy. Your video is the first I have ran across that had a 3 hole connection...and I have watched a bunch... I'm about ready to pull my hair out..lol...any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Do you know how far the supports stick out from the top edge if the pool? we are going to add a deck. We just don't know how far to adjust for the support legs. thanks!
How much room you need extra after the 24x12 so with legs how much more feet I will need to clear legs I have a hole that’s 26 x14 dig out is that enough?
I’ve got a 16x32 intex ultrframe coming in this weekend. I need to know how far the bottom of the braces where they sit on the concrete blocks are from the actual size of the pool or in other words the top bar of the frame so that I can set my concrete pads before hand. I know that they move outward as you fill the pool
Awesome, I want to buy this but if you don't mind answering a question. Does it have to be filled up to 52in? Can I keep it at 48in. I would like to buy this one and when my kids grow a little just add more water? Let me anyone. Thank you!
Put mine up yesterday, thanks for the water advice! Curious to know do you have a heater for the pool if not how long did it take for the water to warm up.
I was wondering if the support poles rusted since last year? We had a smaller round pool with a salt water system last year and the pools were useless after just 1 season. Have you seen any corrosion on any of the pipes? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Wonderful news. We had a 12' round pool from BestWay with metal poles and 70% of the poles rusted out. Granted we didn't spend a lot, but now we are going to invest $1,000 and we NEED it to last 2-3 years.
I thought I was the only person that used baby oil for the rails.. Bro that baby oil worked perfectly and made the rails slide throw the lining so easy...

Thank you for responding to my questions!
Oh cool. thanks for the response. So I guess I am doing it right. thank you
Great video! We have a similar pool setup in our home, now our little problem is with setting up the volleyball stuff, cos it came with no directions. We have same exact one as u got.
Thanks. Its real simple to put together. I am sure you can find a PDF some were online of the directions
Thanks a lot, Limanio, I found the pdf file & have installed it.
Thank you and your accent is awesome
I'll say this people baby oil makes it easier but it's still a petroleum products and it can damage the material.
Talc powder will work just fine
Thanks for sharing!
this was great!! thank u so much! def. helping us make a decision on pools!
your welcome
Nice pool

Are you sure this isnt the 32x16, this looks HUGE.....i love it, im getting one. in May.
definitely a 12x24
Alexcia Dixon same! But it's the small frame one :(
Don't Read My Profile Picture What do you mean, we are purchasing next week to be exact, did you have a problem with this one.
Alexcia Dixon I just got mine today!
got mine last Wednesday and installed it Saturday, unfortunately the yard wasn't leveled correct so we had to drain....😔😔
Just got mine up and almost full of water but the water is pretty green, once i get the filters up and running will that take care of the green? Have you ever shocked yours?
I have not shocked mine. But i think your water will clean up if you use the salt generator with the filter for a long period of time.
On my 24 hour run to dissolve salt. So next i start my timer then run a boost right away? That part had me a little confused. It'll run for 48 hours straight then?
Yes Boost only extended the run time you program. I would run it until the water is clean
Thanks! You've been a huge help!
how far apart are the legs trying to build a base

Hello. Debbie from Reno, Nv. Just wondering how easy is it to take down this pool? We have the same one. We're are taking it down next month because it gets too cold in the winter. Any helpful hints? Thanks

The pump and filter is deigned to use salt water, so yes. the grass is not effected bye it.

What is the footprint of the pool with the supports? Do they stick out about 18 inches?
They stick out 12" So its 14x26
Where you worried about buying from eBay? I’m currently looking at some pools on eBay and I’m just worried about it being a scam.

How much space do you need around the pool, so Paver to paver what’s the true width and length after set up beyond the 12 /24 pool size? Any tricks or tips for leveling the ground before setup? Thanks so much for the video, very helpful.
I would say 16x28'' I had the ground professionally leveled. Thanks for watching
If anyone is reading this in 2022, you need to bury and level your pavers with the ground. This should stop any bowing.
wait... salt filter?? does that makes water salted?
Yes, But not like the ocean water.
After reading most of these questions and comments, I think people are mistaking Sand filter with a salt filter. This is our second Intex pool and I was wondering if we can just use the sand filter from our previous pool instead of the Salt generator? Also you said you broke 3 pavers and then replace thether following spring. What change did you make to the pavers?
I dint know how many gallons your old pool was or what the gallons per hour your filter is, so i cant answer that. If you don't use the salt generator you will need to use chemicals to keep the PH level. I dug out under them and put crushed rock. It helped none snapped last year filling. hope this helps
I'm in Mass too...do you need to take it down in the winter? That is the one thing holding us back from getting one.
I would recommend taking it down. Just because are winters are so bad some times. It does come with a thick cover that you could use if not. I would Drain it passed the intake holes if you wanted to keep it up, and tie the cover down. Hope this helps..
@@limaniopasquale2579 the sides on my pool are caved in with the pool filled to the max. What should I do?
Hello I appreciate your input. Is this the same size as your,Intex 24' x 12' x 52" Ultra Frame Rectangular Above Ground Swimming Pool with Sand Filter Pump ?
Question on the measurements- the width 12 but the support poles the stick out on the side whats the over all Width? is it still 12?
The over all after assembled is around 14'x26'. Hope this helps, Thanks for watching
@@limaniopasquale2579 thank you that's what I needed
Did you dig the grounds to put the pavers down so that they are leveled with the ground as indicated on the manual?
Yes
I have a fairly tight space where this will fit into. How much more space does the pool take up with the pool supports all the way out? If its a 12x 24 is it really 14x26 or even more?
B M 14 x 26 is the farthest leg dimension. I hope that helps thanks for watching
Hello I currently have this pool and as I’m currently filling it but worried why it looks like it’s sinking in . Any help?
I don't understand what you mean. If the walls of the pool are leaning in wile the water is filling they are suppose to they will straiten up as the water gets higher. If it is sinking into the ground i would stop right away
No it was sinking in while filling up sorry I wasn’t as specific . Yes it’s halfway full I was worried why it looked as it was sinking in while filling
Yes i want to make
Hi there, I bought this same pool and I'm worried about my corner joints. They do not fit and kind of slide in and out the the other metal frame poles. What can you do to secure the corner joints so that they do not move after your pool is filled?
Hi, They are suppose to move in and out with the water, Hope this helps
How is the metal framing holding up since you are using salt water system on it? Wondering if poles are rusting out? Thinking about buying one and installing the saltwater system. Also did the salt water system come as an option?
The salt has not had any effect on the metal poles. If You see my video i just posted there is no rust at all. The salt water system is a option. My opinion salt is the only way to go. Thanks for watching
Thank you. I am in the process of filling mine and I’m a little worried about the sides leaning in. Any suggestions
If you have all your side support pulled out all the way. you should be fine, The wall will straighten up. I have many videos of my pool filling on my channel. you can see it happen on them. Thanks for watching
We just bought one of these. Did you use an extension cord with the filtration system? Also, is there a cover that you recommend? We have lots of trees and wind, so looking for a good cover.
I use a heavy duty extension cord to an out side GFCI outlet. I don't use a cover in the summertime but this pool comes with one. I have a video on my channel that i did last month with the covers i use on it.
Good video you showed me a lot....did the pool hold up through the winter?
I took it down in late September.
I'm back again, can you give an update on your pool? Is it still holding up? also, how's the pool closing process or if you take it down , how's that? If you take yours down, what do you do with the water? Thank you!
Maria Nunez The pool is holding up just fine no I do not take it down and actually leave the water in it. I drain it and I clean it and then I fill it with new water works perfectly thanks for watching.
Nice video.After the initial 200# of salt,how much do u have to add per week/month? I have only used chlorine so I have no idea how these salt pools work.Would you know if the manual gives instructions on winterizing for winter? Draining completely would be a deal breaker for me,considering the size of this pool and cost to refill yearly.Thanks much..
There is no need to add more salt after the first 200. It does come with a cover for the winter and you would need to just drain it passed the intake holes.
Do you leave your pool up during the winter?
Raven Patterson yes we do. I have multiple videos showing it up. Thanks for watching
were you able to winterize it? or did you have to take it down?
I took it down the first year and kept it up after that. I have a lot of videos on my channel showing that. Thanks for watching.
@@limaniopasquale2579 great, thanks!
Nice pool man.
Where did you get those posts for the volleyball net?
Shai Ohana on the Intex web site. Thanks for watching
Hello, I was planning on getting the pavers and ladder for mine. On the pavers, did you find something that worked better or figure out why they snapped? On the ladder, I see some say it's a bit wobbly or doesn't fit in height, any experience there?
I dug out the pavers and put crushed rock under them. seems to help. The ladder is great i have no problem with it being wobbly or fitting in height. Hope this helps
Do the measurements 12x24 include the space for the supports or is that an additional foot or so? Thanks for posting the video.
No the 12x24 is the top of the pool. The foot print of the hole pool is 16x30.
Stank you for your video. I really appreciate it since it's my first pool. What ladder was that at again?

Hey there...I really need some help understanding the 3 hole connection and what the parts are that go inside the pool for the hoses to connect to....could you give me a little more detail about that. I am so frustrated with this thing after reading the manual, watching the DVD that was sent that only showed 2 holes and also calling Intex Corp and they suggested watching you tube videos ...it's just crazy. Your video is the first I have ran across that had a 3 hole connection...and I have watched a bunch... I'm about ready to pull my hair out..lol...any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Mine has two intakes and one feed. This video might help.. Hope everthing works out!

Do you know how far the supports stick out from the top edge if the pool? we are going to add a deck. We just don't know how far to adjust for the support legs. thanks!
i don't know. i am setting it back up in a couple weeks. i could tell you then
How much room you need extra after the 24x12 so with legs how much more feet I will need to clear legs I have a hole that’s 26 x14 dig out is that enough?
The foot print is 26 x14. Thanks for watching
I’ve got a 16x32 intex ultrframe coming in this weekend. I need to know how far the bottom of the braces where they sit on the concrete blocks are from the actual size of the pool or in other words the top bar of the frame so that I can set my concrete pads before hand. I know that they move outward as you fill the pool
12"
Do you feel anything risky while jumping in pool for adult ??
Just hit the bottom faster .. LOL
There are 3 connections on the side for your hoses. What are they and what sizes? I'm really curious about the 2 little ones and their adapters.
There the intake and the water feed. I don't know what size they are.
Awesome, I want to buy this but if you don't mind answering a question. Does it have to be filled up to 52in? Can I keep it at 48in. I would like to buy this one and when my kids grow a little just add more water? Let me anyone. Thank you!
Yes , you can keep the water level at 48"
Mr. P....where did you get the clamps for the volleyball net?
They came with the pool, along with the net.
Ok...thanks Limanio
Put mine up yesterday, thanks for the water advice! Curious to know do you have a heater for the pool if not how long did it take for the water to warm up.
I do not, it took about a month
I was wondering if the support poles rusted since last year? We had a smaller round pool with a salt water system last year and the pools were useless after just 1 season. Have you seen any corrosion on any of the pipes? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Jeffrey Connelly absolutely no rust whatsoever since last year and they were stored outside in the snow
Wonderful news. We had a 12' round pool from BestWay with metal poles and 70% of the poles rusted out. Granted we didn't spend a lot, but now we are going to invest $1,000 and we NEED it to last 2-3 years.
Thank you again for your feedback
