User questions & answers

Question:	does the pole come with this kit? does the vacuum hose come in this kit
Answer:	You have everything that you need in the kit. This kit can also be used for a summer escapes pool, with the wall skimmer. But, you will have to use the vacuum adapter that came with the pool, as you do not have the round inlet like the Intex pools have. Again, I use mine with a Summer Escapes 18 X52 pool, and have had no problems at all.
Question:	How does vacuum work with salt water pump
Answer:	Just converted my pool last year and the vacuum works just fine with salt water. BTW the vacuum that comes with this set is the best vacuum I've ever used!
Question:	I have an 18' X 9' Ultra frame intex pool with a 1200 gph sand filter, will this work with my pool? Do I need to purchase a skimmer set separately
Answer:	Should work great,I have a 18' by 52" ultra pool with a small sand filter. The key to strong suction is to make sure all air is out of the hose
Question:	I have a 22' Intex Ultra Frame. Was looking at this kit, but i dont have a skimmer. Can i screw the blue adapter onto the intake side of my pump
Answer:	I had a 15' intex pool. I didn't have a skimmer in the pool wall either. Yes, I unscrewed the intake cap (water going to the pump)and screwed on the adaptor and then attached the hose. But, I also had a 1 horsepower sand filter that really worked awesome, had great suction. I don't know how well this maintenance kit would work with the small filter pumps that come with the pool. I hope this helps. Good luck.

User questions & answers

Question:	how do you connect a wahoo suction poolside cleaner to skimmer
Answer:	It hangs over the side by an extension and a hose connects it to the filter for suction.
Question:	Does this work with the new frame design
Answer:	Mine works great (100%) with my intex ultra pool.
Question:	Will this Skimmer work with the Easy Set Pools
Answer:	The set I bought came with two brackets, one for use with a rigid sided pool and the second for an Easy Set. The first year of use I used the "Easy Set" bracket over the top ring of the pool. It worked well as long as the ring remained well inflated (which mine did not for very long). For seasons 2 and 3 I drove a pole into the ground with a horizontal arm from which to suspend the skimmer; excellent result.
Question:	do the hoses come with it
Answer:	Yes it does. I just received mine and the hose and adapters come with it. EVERYTHING you need to set it up. I set mine up on a 26' Coleman pool and it works great!

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it work on a summer waves above ground pool
Answer:	The pool rail looks simalar to a Colman pool I had. I believe it would fit your pool
Question:	What's the best skimmer for a intex 9x18 ultra frame pool
Answer:	I upgraded my pump to the 2500 GPH and just used the standard skimmer. I never had an issue with the skimmer other than bleaching and breakdown of the plastic from the sun. I found that your bang for the buck is with the pumping system not the skimmer.
Question:	st time I've bought an Intex pool & there's no skimmer at all! I'm not used to this so not sure what to do. I can't imagine not having a skimmer
Answer:	Have purchased a couple over the years, but not all models come with one. Make sure the one you bought is designed to have one. If the bill of materials says you should have one, call them and get one. Take it back to the store and get one. Replacement parts I've boughten on amazon have worked well.

Product features

In The Swim Pool Opening Chemical Start Up Kit

Stain, Rust & Scale Preventer: Prevents and removes mineral stains caused by iron, copper, and magnesium. It also prevents the build-up of scale around the water line and in the plumbing.

Algaecide: Kills and prevents all types of algae, including green & yellow mustard algae. Can be applied to inground or above ground pools and spas. This non-foaming formula will not cloud the pool water. Swimming Pool Algaecide is non-metallic, safe with well water, and is safe to swim after use.

Chlorine Shock: An essential aspect of spring pool opening & can also give your pool a quick chlorine boost anytime. Super Pool Shock is our most powerful shock treatment. Kills the toughest algae and bacteria as well as other harmful water contaminants.

Clarifier: Coagulates dirt, oil and other contaminants. Fast and completely biodegradable, this won't affect chemical balance. Due to the high quality of filtration that DE Filters provide, it is not recommended that this product is used with a DE pool filter.

Sun Sorb: Absorbs 40 times its weight in non-living organic contaminants (body oil and lotion) left on the surface of the water. Keeps contaminants out of the plumbing and filtration system to help maintain proper flow and circulation rates.

Maintenance

First start by filling the pool to the appropriate level. Clean out the skimmer and pump basket making sure all debris has been removed. Once you hit the appropriate water level turn on and circulate the pool for 3 - 4 hours. While the pool is circulating take the time to brush, net, or vacuum the pool to remove excess debris. Backwash or clean the filter once the vacuuming is completed.

Water Testing & Balancing

Testing the water weekly or bi-weekly, depending on use and outside variables, helps keep your pool/spa water healthy. Utilizing a DPD or OTO reagent-based water test kit, test strips, or digital testing will help you monitor the pool or spa water chemistry. Adjusting and balancing your pool or spa water chemistry ensures that you will get the most out of the swimming season. The benefit of having good pH and Alkalinity levels is it increases the ability of your main sanitizer to kill bacteria. Balanced pool water chemistry will also reduce chemical and maintenance costs. Balanced pH and alkalinity help prevent corrosion and scale formation on the interior pool surface and surrounding equipment.

Sanitizing

There are many different types of sanitizers used in various pool and spa environments. Clean and healthy water starts by establishing a proper residual chlorine level with shock or concentrated granular chlorine. The most common way to maintain a proper chlorine level is by using trichlor chlorine tablets in either a floater or chemical feeder. Applying these steps to your normal maintenance plan will ensure the elimination of non-living organic contaminants, bacteria, micro organisms, and algae making your water safe to enjoy.

Treatment

Even after all your preparation, sometimes life happens and your pool or spa can get away from you. In those moments, we need to start back from the beginning with testing of the water. Now that you have a clear idea of the current readings, your next steps will depend on the type of symptoms your water is presenting. This may include an issue such as algae (green, yellow, black, etc.), cloudiness, living organics, debris, and other water conditions.

Clarifying

Now that the treatment is over, it’s time to deal with the aftermath of turbidity, cloudy, or hazy water. Depending on the size of particle that will determine what type of clarifier you are going to use. If you are dealing with larger particles, you should use a flocculating agent to break the surface tension and drop everything to the bottom for vacuuming. If you are dealing with very small fine particles then use a coagulant type clarifier. This will group the small particles together into a bigger particle for easy filtration.

Fun and Safety

Now that the water is properly balanced, sanitized, and clarified it’s time to get in there and have some fun! We recommend enhancing your outdoor living environment with games, floats or loungers, toys, and accessories. Get creative!

Safety is of the utmost importance, and there are many ways to help make your pool/spa safer. Having a life ring buoy, a shepherd's hook, depth markers, coast guard-approved life preservers, door and water alarms and having your local aquatic environment safety regulations on-hand will ensure a fun and safe environment for your family.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be put directly on pool or do you have to put on cover
Answer:	It goes by the wall height from very bottom of wall to top edge. You need a 52" beaded liner.

Answer:	The liner has a 25-year limited warranty against manufacturer material defects.

User questions & answers

Question:	What kind of hardware comes with this ladder
Answer:	Oh Yes! Our female Red Doberman loved the pool and would jump in for her toy and swim to the ladder and climb up, she was the best! We did have a rubber mat after the steps on the deck to give her front paws a grip. She died 3 years ago of cancer and the pool is not the same without her. :( We continue to have/use the steps though, probably for 10 years now.
Question:	Can you use with out deck?..does it have 2 sided steps
Answer:	This is a very stable ladder. 42" is a typical size of an inground pool- this will work for well for that height, however, the top step will be slightly higher than 42". If you have any additional questions please call 320-695-2899. FamilyPoolFun
Question:	What size step mat do i need to put under the steps
Answer:	In the instructions it tells you to put 40 lbs of play sand in the pockets where the arms go. that plus when you put it in the pool the rest of the cavities fill up with water which helps to hold it down. love this pool ladder. This is my second one. The first one lasted many many years.
Question:	Would a large dog be able to use these stairs to get out of the pool

User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have it 20 ft
Answer:	Drain holes just let the rain, leaves and tree dirt drain right back into your pool! I duck taped mine closed and it works much better. You must drain the top off after rain. Leave some slack in the cover for rain water. I put screen over the siphon hose to stop clogging. Use a ratchet strap with enough rope added to go around the pool and ratchet it tight to keep it from blowing off. Intex should make a cover without the holes too. Overall this is a good cover, Mine lasted 8 years with 2 times of replacing the Alum. Tape over the dumb holes.
Question:	Does anyone keep their pool up all year. I am worried about the winter months and have always taken mine down, but it's such a pain
Answer:	PS: I was used to a solid color bottom for years and was't sure if I would like it, I do. It is very nice. It is nicer to look at from outside than the sea life on the wall, it is easier to see.
Question:	Can I use this 18' cover in my 16' pool
Answer:	it has a big overlap bc its for 48"-52", however going one foot deeper the edge of the liner would be right on the top of pool with not enough of overlapping, i would go with 54" to be safe
Question:	Does this pool cover have holes that let debris or does it have a mesh to keep junk out
Answer:	This liner is not designed to work with Intex pools. This liner is designed to work with above-ground steel-framed pools.
