Dude! You are so right! No one shows up to help when you are doing it and everyone wants to show up after! I’m about to start this process and your vid was extremely helpful! Thanks!
We just bought this same pool too. Thanks for the tips. It was hell to level and we have no slope. I knew the original pump wasn’t big enough. Thank you
Good video, super right about the posts sinking. True on the friends when they need you. I dug out for mine about 10 inches, put down 1” styrofoam insulation all level. Started filling and looking good. Finished filling and the monsoons set in before I could backfill. So now I’m adding pavers at every post. Then I’ll backfill. Good video!
Great video! Very helpful. Rented a skid steer to dig out our slope. Still getting assembled. Thanks for the warning about the sand. It’s supposed to rain this weekend and I don’t want to lose a ton in the rain.
We bought this pool. I used a sod cutter and went down 2.5". Leveled the area with sand. Placed a pool cover for rocks and used blocks to level from leg to leg. This was a huge undertaking. The chemical side was definitely easier than the construction that went into getting up. Great job on your pool. It looks great!
Amen... first time "COVID" pool owner and OMG the week leading up to actually installing the pool was "hell week". Digging, leveling etc. BUT... if you do it right, it comes out flawless
Dude i just had this same thing happen to me last night. Didnt even get to swing it yet. Wish i would have seen this video before i set mine up. Good video.
I 100% feel your pain! Took me 2 weekends to get everything level. Took it down for the same reason, just finished filling it. Take the time to level it! You'll be happy you did
The leveling part absolutely sucks donkey dic 🤣🤣🤣 Wife come home with a big ass pool like this and talked me into it. I spent hours on a Saturday digging in 95 degree heat. The yard had a definite slope. I wound up renting a bobcat style earth mover from Home Depot for the day. It made short work of leveling the ground. I also got around to removing a lot of unwanted brush and bushes It was absolutely worth the effort. I often come home from work all hot and sweaty and jump in the pool.
My neighbor gave me this pool. I didnt know a thing about it especially how big it is. I had to put it down in the back yard(forest) on a straight up and down slope (almost. it's really hard to stand on it and if you set something down it rolls away for days). It took me EIGHT MONTHS to dig out the hole before I could start leveling. Just me and my shovel. Mountains and mountains of dirt. I ran out of places to put it and started giving truck loads away. Had to build a huge retaining wall. March 5 2023 is the day he gave it to me and I got started right away. I've worked on it every day except for maybe a month total. Today is April 18 2024 and the pool is laid where it's sposta be. Now for assembly. I cannot even describe what I have been through or the endless money I've put in this nightmare. I saw a pretty good hole in the bottom but can't find it now.
We have the same pool and a big slope too. Didn't realize how big a slope still we started excavating to level it. After excavating it still is off so went to the quarry today to get some clean fill to build up ground on the one side...not a lot but we read or saw video saying not to build up with sand. The quarry with all those huge piles only had fill with rocks in it! So they suggested infield dirt that is used on baseball fields. So we bought that, spread it out and a load of sand we have towards middle and other side under where the pool liner will sit. Tomorrow we are going to rent a vibratory plate compressor to really pack in the side that we tried to build up and then add more sand to middle. I like how you secured your blocks so I will have my husband get something for ours too. I'm hoping we will have it level tomorrow and start filling. My "bargain" pool is starting to add up. And yes...I really thought I was going to throw a tarp down and a little sand and set this sucker up. Boy was I wrong!!😬
No, it's a lot of work. We got oura put up 2 weeks ago. It was unlevel and the pool was full already. We had to jack the legs up to build it back up. Thankfully it all worked perfectly and went well. It is a job getting it put up.
Second time owning one of these. The first one lasted about 5 years until one of the legs rusted from the inside out and snapped. THE INSIDE OF THESE POLES ARE NOT PAINTED. Second time around, I took a smaller paint roller attached to a stick and a ramed a whole bunch of brown Rust-Oleum through each pole. He's right, if you do not put the legs on pavers, even with the plastic feet it comes with, the poles will sink into the ground and rust. Assemble the top ring first without the liner and verticals. The bottom of the "T" connectors will be where you place your pavers. Then disassemble the top ring and level your ground and pavers.
We used the inside skimmer last year and realized with splashing by the grandkids that it had a tendency to come off the side and mess up the pump. We ended up installing a side slimmer and it works much better. The video is great and a lot of stuff for new owners to think about. The pools are relatively cheap but it’s all the extra stuff you need to make it right that costs the money.
Yes same thing happened to us with the Intex skimmer. I have a Hayward side wall skimmer on the way. And your right the extras just keep on coming lol. I’ll make a updated video around July with the other things we have done.
I’ve heard sand is a big mistake. We put some down , and it did cause problems when it rained with the leave of the pool , and uprights . We raked quite a bit of sand out after summer, and store pool for the winter zz it dies extend the life of the pool . I enjoyed your video ! Great morning entertainment 😂
This is the only pool setup that I've seen on UA-cam that shows what 95 percent of us are dealing with the the dirt and ground slopes. All the videos I've seen is perfect soil that you don't need to rototill, excavator,bobcat or use any machinery for the ground. My dirt is like concrete and watering it doesn't help at all under the half inch it's hard as clay it's just like bedrock. Like the video my situation fortunately I'm not dealing with a slope like yours.
I have the same pool and yours looks great! Mine is so uneven on one side. It’s just me now so too much to take down and do over. I used sand. It helped some but not much. I also used the small pavers, should have used the bigger ones. It’s been up 2 years so hopefully it’ll continue to be ok! 🤞🏼
I am on a slope myself. I had to dig down 14 inches on one side. I used the tiller and then the shovel. I did it by myself and I am a 68 year old grandma. I can verify it is WORK. (especially in the heat) In Oklahoma we go from COLD to WET to HEAT!!!
This was awesome! Don't sell urself short. We have the same pool. Going on 2nd yr. Did slightly different things but you did what was best for your fam👍🏾🏊♀️🏊🏾🤽🤽🏽♀️
I really like your pump. I’m in the middle of putting mine up. This one is bigger than my last one. Hope all your hard work paid off and you all, including those friends that didn’t show up to dig. They should be bringing the goods for barbecues during the summer. Happy swimming and really, I thank you for making this video. I’ve not made one yet. Maybe sometime I’ll ask a kid how to do it. 👍
Nice pool! Y'all did a wonderful job on this pool. It isnr as simple as setting it up and go with what coleman gave us. Please kindly give me a link to get the adaptors to convert the original tubing to be large enough to fit onto that new pump n filter. Thank you
Leveling is the hardest part. Tip: Spray metal supports with flex paint. Mine started to rust after first year. Today I’m draining it and throwing it out. Best to upgrade to 1.5” hoses.
I’ve got the same pool. Usually have the intex 18 by 48, usually last 3 years. Covoid caused huge shortages... wife found this pool on eBay, new for 1k The metal feels cheaper, so I am hoping for 2 years (take mine down by October) Pool is huge compared to 18 x 48. You are right, the pump and filter that comes with it is crap. I’m on my second intex pump with sand filter - first pump lasted 5 years. I think 2400 gallons an hour. I maybe backwash once a week.. usually one every two weeks. Takes 5 minutes if that DO: scrap the hoses, hard plumb it... hoses it comes with adds friction... draws and pumps way better with real pvc. Not hard. DO: plug one of the intakes and cut the other to fit larger 1 1/2 pipe. Amazing difference. I might video my set up to show others...
Hey, thanks for the tips much appreciated. In the beginning I was going to go PVC but I thought with all the 90’s I would have to put in would slow down the flow? So at the moment still using the hoses and they are working fine, so probably will stick it out this year with the hoses unless I start to see issues . Now plugging the one intake is a great idea and I’m leaning on doing that for sure. You should post a video would like to see your pool and how you did some things. So have you ever kept your pool up through the winter? Pretty sure that’s the route I’m going this year, seems to much of a hassle to take down and I’ve been told by a lot of people it’s better keeping it up and winterizing. What’s your thoughts?
I would never buy a home that has a slope for starters as well as buying a home on a busy street unless someone is paying me to live there or I’m renting. But you did do a great job for your first time doing this which is impressive in itself. I lucked out the first time doing this myself. The pool is slightly out of level due to impatience with the crew I had to work with, maybe some settling since I didn’t have a tamper, an the season was nearing to the end but it still is standing strong for the moment 2 years so far. I may end up emptying and redoing it again maybe. I just need to build a deck around it and I’ll be all set once I redo it. But you have a nice little setup.
I just got the Coleman 18ft 48 inches. Boy has it been fun 😐 wish I would have watched your video before. I’m dealing with just a slight slope. Nothing too major but I definitely will be taking down as soon as summer is over and redoing the right way! I have mastered the chemicals for water though! If you have any questions shoot them my way!
@carmen samaniego I would like to hear your tips on the pool water. I am still confused and I do what the pool supply store says. It's been minimal but always something
Jody Wilson basically I’ve been doing 2 chlorine tablets in the floater at all times and shock it once a week with the Clorox 6 in 1 formula and basic sweeping, vacuuming and skimming and it’s Crystal Clear!!!!!
Did you level your pavers in the ground and then put the posts on top of the pavers and level the legs? Then fill in the hole? With the dirt and use some quick rete around the bottom?
Great Video. I love the do's and Don'ts. Could you please tell me exactly what type pump, Name & total HP and where did you buy it ? How much ?? Where did you buy the Cartridge type filter ?? and How much ?? Many Thanks. I love your setup. I have the 22' x 52''. The original pump & filter system sucks. Many Thanks and I am looking forward to your response. Thanks Again. Mike
I put this pool up last year during the pandemic. I got it level. Had everything set up right. My kids enjoyed it all summer. At the end of the year it was almost time to winterize the pool when I came home from work and found a huge surprise......yes my wife and in-laws had totally taken the pool down. When I asked why?....My wife says "we just figured it would be easier to take it down and put it back up again next year instead of winterizing it......today my friends here I am putting the damn thing up again.
I was 5 inches off on one side. It was stable but it made me worry so I drained it and moved it down 2ft and used 2 12x12 2 inch thick of pavers under under low legs and am still off 5inches. Am currently filling back up and will let ya know how it turns out. My neighbor has same pool on a 10in to 14inch slope and still good. Will update in2 days on how it's going. Thanks for tha vid
Put pavers under all legs and make sure they are all level (block to block) and then get you a laser level and put on a block and move it back and forth and dig out where need be (repeat this on multiple blocks). This is how I got my level. Hope it helps and good luck
Came out great. Only off about 2 and half inches. Got it filled up and the new 2800gph sand filter and pump on. It hooked straight up to original hoses and moves the water wonderfully!! I used a string level for basic and came out ok no digging necessary for me.
That what size alI got but this time I got the coleman without the window cause the one with window busted not to long after we got it setup. Hope your goes well
Great video man very informative and my slope is way steeper than yours and looking to put this exact pool in. Odd question but how many legs does this pool have? Asking so I can price out paver stones as well. Thanks in advance!
The filter b suckes. But I figured it out. I plumb hot water outside. And blast it with the hose. On hot. Clean it daily. Omg saved mass money. It even goes back to its original form. Wow. This pool is a hard one. Pools are a daily task. From chemicals to vacuuming the bottom. But your right on your video
I feel your pain brother, had to do the exact thing and I know what ya mean about those friends that are always there....when there's beer and steaks that is but they are mia for anything else...
My ground isn't perfectly level but it's pretty darn close so I pushed it. One side has about 2 inches less water than the other but not a huge deal. I don't have this pool but I just like watching pool videos.
we got the 26ft coleman looks just like that and we had to do alot of digging and tilling bc couldnt find anybody to grade our yard so i know your pain!!!
Bonding isn't required everywhere for even metal pools..in Illinois its dependent where you live..where i live bonding isn't code..also you can run good gage extensions cord so long as its plugged into a GFCI in the house ..yeah its best to have it close though ive done the same
Young man, you did a great job. I know your family is very happy 😊. Can you please tell me what kind of skimmer you have. We just put the same pool up and oh my goodness 😳 it was rough. On a hill as well. Trying to get it leveled was difficult. Anyways, we are filling it up tomorrow. Thanks again for all of your information.
Dude! You are so right! No one shows up to help when you are doing it and everyone wants to show up after! I’m about to start this process and your vid was extremely helpful! Thanks!
We just bought this same pool too. Thanks for the tips. It was hell to level and we have no slope. I knew the original pump wasn’t big enough. Thank you
Thanks for sharing! I feel you on the friends not coming around when you need them and always being there when you’re buying the food and drinks.
Good video, super right about the posts sinking. True on the friends when they need you. I dug out for mine about 10 inches, put down 1” styrofoam insulation all level.

You're hired !!
Dude i just had this same thing happen to me last night. Didnt even get to swing it yet. Wish i would have seen this video before i set mine up. Good video.
Thank you for this - we have the 18’ X 48” - this was helpful.
I LOVE YOUR POOL. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFORMATION!❤👍
Fishing rod holder is a great idea! Well done!

Looks good man! You guys enjoy your summer!!
I just did my by my self. Me and my rotor tiller and it was a lot of work so I know where you are coming from 👍
Thank you for the information it help alot. We just bought a 22x52 pool.
You did an amazing job!! Video was great! Enjoy!!!!
Well summer 2020 when we all get old one thing we can say is we all had the same pool hahahahahaha
Beautiful job, and a helpful video!
Great video and the pool came out awesome.

We had to drain the pool too!! Yes make sure it’s leveled !! Cool video!!
You did a great job! I just installed a 12 x 30” and it was a lot of work.
I have the same pool and yours looks great! Mine is so uneven on one side. It’s just me now so too much to take down and do over. I used sand. It helped some but not much. I also used the small pavers, should have used the bigger ones. It’s been up 2 years so hopefully it’ll continue to be ok! 🤞🏼
Thanks for video, I’ve been searching for how to do a pool on slope
I am on a slope myself. I had to dig down 14 inches on one side. I used the tiller and then the shovel. I did it by myself and I am a 68 year old grandma. I can verify it is WORK. (especially in the heat) In Oklahoma we go from COLD to WET to HEAT!!!
This was awesome! Don't sell urself short. We have the same pool. Going on 2nd yr. Did slightly different things but you did what was best for your fam👍🏾🏊♀️🏊🏾🤽🤽🏽♀️
good job and a real person. talks like we do no bs kudos my friend for a fine video.
I really like your pump. I’m in the middle of putting mine up. This one is bigger than my last one. Hope all your hard work paid off and you all, including those friends that didn’t show up to dig.

Yes I need that pump mine is out please let us know what where to buy
Thanks ,great video very helpful
Thanks for your video!!! How many posts are on the pool? Trying to figure out how many pavers I will need.
Nice pool! Y'all did a wonderful job on this pool. It isnr as simple as setting it up and go with what coleman gave us. Please kindly give me a link to get the adaptors to convert the original tubing to be large enough to fit onto that new pump n filter. Thank you
Thanks big help ... looks good
I have the Coleman Mr. series 2 18 x 48 myself. Can you please let me know where you bought your new stairs when you get it.
Enjoyed your video. Good job. Just put up a 20x 52
You deserve a like & subscribe for being a great dad! Lucky kids!
Yes loved the comment about noone to help set up but when people wanna come and enjoy it 😉
Leveling is the hardest part. Tip: Spray metal supports with flex paint. Mine started to rust after first year. Today I’m draining it and throwing it out. Best to upgrade to 1.5” hoses.
How long did you have yours up for? Did you winterize it when that time came or did you take it down when the season was over?
Tre Helton we swim year round in Florida. We took excellent care of it. Lasted only 3 years.
Love It wish you could set mine up!!
Thanks bro big help
Idk but im super overwhelmed
Tre Helton where did you buy your pump and filter system?
I had the same issue for 3 years straight!! I'm taking mine down AGAIN and I'm going to try this with the blocks. Headache!!!
Where did you get the pump, and does all of that come with the pump?
I’ve got the same pool. Usually have the intex 18 by 48, usually last 3 years. Covoid caused huge shortages... wife found this pool on eBay, new for 1k
The metal feels cheaper, so I am hoping for 2 years (take mine down by October)
Pool is huge compared to 18 x 48. You are right, the pump and filter that comes with it is crap. I’m on my second intex pump with sand filter - first pump lasted 5 years. I think 2400 gallons an hour. I maybe backwash once a week.. usually one every two weeks. Takes 5 minutes if that
DO: scrap the hoses, hard plumb it... hoses it comes with adds friction... draws and pumps way better with real pvc. Not hard.
DO: plug one of the intakes and cut the other to fit larger 1 1/2 pipe. Amazing difference.
I might video my set up to show others...
Hey, thanks for the tips much appreciated. In the beginning I was going to go PVC but I thought with all the 90’s I would have to put in would slow down the flow? So at the moment still using the hoses and they are working fine, so probably will stick it out this year with the hoses unless I start to see issues .
Now plugging the one intake is a great idea and I’m leaning on doing that for sure. You should post a video would like to see your pool and how you did some things. So have you ever kept your pool up through the winter? Pretty sure that’s the route I’m going this year, seems to much of a hassle to take down and I’ve been told by a lot of people it’s better keeping it up and winterizing. What’s your thoughts?
Michael Harmon is the Pool 4 inches tall??.
Where did y’all get the pump?
Looks great👍
The bungee cords... great idea also
I would never buy a home that has a slope for starters as well as buying a home on a busy street unless someone is paying me to live there or I’m renting. But you did do a great job for your first time doing this which is impressive in itself. I lucked out the first time doing this myself. The pool is slightly out of level due to impatience with the crew I had to work with, maybe some settling since I didn’t have a tamper, an the season was nearing to the end but it still is standing strong for the moment 2 years so far. I may end up emptying and redoing it again maybe. I just need to build a deck around it and I’ll be all set once I redo it. But you have a nice little setup.
Great video 👍
I love it man you just me ideas for mine
I just got the Coleman 18ft 48 inches. Boy has it been fun 😐 wish I would have watched your video before. I’m dealing with just a slight slope. Nothing too major but I definitely will be taking down as soon as summer is over and redoing the right way! I have mastered the chemicals for water though! If you have any questions shoot them my way!
@carmen samaniego I would like to hear your tips on the pool water. I am still confused and I do what the pool supply store says. It's been minimal but always something
Jody Wilson basically I’ve been doing 2 chlorine tablets in the floater at all times and shock it once a week with the Clorox 6 in 1 formula and basic sweeping, vacuuming and skimming and it’s Crystal Clear!!!!!
I need help ! My pump is leaking water from the lid . Not sure what’s going on and it’s really getting me upset trying to figure out what’s wrong
Did you level your pavers in the ground and then put the posts on top of the pavers and level the legs? Then fill in the hole? With the dirt and use some quick rete around the bottom?
Good looking pool
I have a oval pool on my 2nd level since it has a gate and lock. Got a new pump I agree the one it came with did not work and is crap.
I'm just driving into things about bigger pool. How does this one differ from let's say hayward sand pump?
Where did you get you pool pump! I have the same pool and having troubles out of the pump!
Great pool ,I have one that is 18ft, currently draining it now. Cause it wasn't leveled right
It sounds like it was a lot of work. Good job
Great Video. I love the do's and Don'ts. Could you please tell me exactly what type pump, Name & total HP and where did you buy it ? How much ?? Where did you buy the Cartridge type filter ?? and How much ?? Many Thanks. I love your setup. I have the 22' x 52''. The original pump & filter system sucks. Many Thanks and I am looking forward to your response. Thanks Again. Mike
What filter system can I use for my Coleman vista series 2
Yes is true it take a lot to get the pool lavel 👍
I put this pool up last year during the pandemic. I got it level. Had everything set up right. My kids enjoyed it all summer. At the end of the year it was almost time to winterize the pool when I came home from work and found a huge surprise......yes my wife and in-laws had totally taken the pool down. When I asked why?....My wife says "we just figured it would be easier to take it down and put it back up again next year instead of winterizing it......today my friends here I am putting the damn thing up again.
What, they aren't back to help you set it up? lol always works that way
@@fordrac1ng81 yes sir it does always work that way.......for me especially.
Do you have a link for the filter you got? Also how many watts does it run? Looking to run mine on solar. Thanks!
Where exactly can I get the pump and filter at? Thanks
Thanks for sharing man
What kind of pump using. Installed mine last week . Diffenlty need a better pump . Love the set up for your pump
I was 5 inches off on one side. It was stable but it made me worry so I drained it and moved it down 2ft and used 2 12x12 2 inch thick of pavers under under low legs and am still off 5inches. Am currently filling back up and will let ya know how it turns out. My neighbor has same pool on a 10in to 14inch slope and still good. Will update in2 days on how it's going. Thanks for tha vid
I will definitely give updates over the next few days
Put pavers under all legs and make sure they are all level (block to block) and then get you a laser level and put on a block and move it back and forth and dig out where need be (repeat this on multiple blocks). This is how I got my level. Hope it helps and good luck
Came out great. Only off about 2 and half inches. Got it filled up and the new 2800gph sand filter and pump on. It hooked straight up to original hoses and moves the water wonderfully!! I used a string level for basic and came out ok no digging necessary for me.
How do you get that to pump water in the pool like that ??
For your first video you did a great job in comparison to other pool vids. Film more projects.
I have the exact pool buddy, thanks for the video but definitely having pump problem. Can you let me know what pump yo have. Thanks!
That what size alI got but this time I got the coleman without the window cause the one with window busted not to long after we got it setup.
Hope your goes well
Great video man very informative and my slope is way steeper than yours and looking to put this exact pool in. Odd question but how many legs does this pool have? Asking so I can price out paver stones as well. Thanks in advance!
Thanks man.
It has 22 legs
The filter b suckes. But I figured it out. I plumb hot water outside. And blast it with the hose. On hot. Clean it daily. Omg saved mass money. It even goes back to its original form. Wow. This pool is a hard one. Pools are a daily task. From chemicals to vacuuming the bottom. But your right on your video
I feel your pain brother, had to do the exact thing and I know what ya mean about those friends that are always there....when there's beer and steaks that is but they are mia for anything else...
My ground isn't perfectly level but it's pretty darn close so I pushed it. One side has about 2 inches less water than the other but not a huge deal. I don't have this pool but I just like watching pool videos.
What type of vacuum do you use for your pool? We have the same pool and use a sand filter. Having trouble finding a good vacuum.
Arlisha Edwards, I just use a simple hand vacuum and do it myself.
Okay, having issues aligning the last 2 holes to put connect t bracket up top. Any suggestions?
Pull like hell!!!! And pull outwards. And you'll need a man probably.... took me and my ex and his wife all 3 of us strong and able.
Should I put my circle of sand out bigger than 22 ft like 23 ft?
What is the number on Amazon you ordered? All the ones I find on Amazon are over 60$
Where did you getvthe filter pump at
What system do use to vacuum it?
Good come back
What is the water depth? I know the pool is 52.
Thank you sir !
How. do I fix the leaks in the windows.
Masterpiece

Bonding isn't required everywhere for even metal pools..in Illinois its dependent where you live..where i live bonding isn't code..also you can run good gage extensions cord so long as its plugged into a GFCI in the house ..yeah its best to have it close though ive done the same
Young man, you did a great job. I know your family is very happy 😊. Can you please tell me what kind of skimmer you have. We just put the same pool up and oh my goodness 😳 it was rough. On a hill as well. Trying to get it leveled was difficult. Anyways, we are filling it up tomorrow. Thanks again for all of your information.
