Great job! You'll probably want to invest in a sand filter though. Game changer. Now we just have a floater we load with 4 in 1 tablets. No chemicals ever. Turn the filter on 4 hours every other day. Keeps it crystal clear. Low Maintenance.

Great job! We love our intex pool.

Turned out nice 👍🏻

I just bought me a pool. Thank for your video I think I will try your style...we are ready for this summer

Looks great. Lesson I learned from 1st pool was to use a base concrete pad for each of the legs. Over time the weight of the water forces the legs into ground. Having a concrete pad to distribute the load helps to stabilize the leveling of the pool. On our 2nd pool now.

This is by far the most helpful video I’ve found! I really appreciate this.

To answer some questions I keep getting: No, we didn't use blocks under the legs and no, they don't sink into the sand (it's very compact), but we also don't leave the pool up year-round bc it gets too cold where we live. If we did leave it up, then I would consider putting blocks under the legs. As you see in the video, we brought in some soil to level out the ground. We could have also dug out an area. I've also been asked if sand comes out the bottom; no, it doesn't (that's one reason why you want the area level and flat, so there's no gaps under the wood.) We built the box on top of the tampered soil and then used the weed fabric to help with erosion or sand mixing with the dirt. It's been a year and it held up fine over the winter, but we also kept it covered with a tarp. And no, we didn't use a compacter. We tampered it (as seen in the video) and checked it all with a level. The weight of the pool slightly compacted the sand underneath it further, but it remained level. If you're worried about your boards flexing, I suggest using some sort of support in the center of each, like a small piece of rebar. I would expect that over years of rain and use we will probably need to bring in more sand for leveling, but we haven't needed to so far and this is the 3rd year.

Another thing I learned was the pool stretches out for a few days after filling it with water. I used 12x12 bricks to level it out and put the a few inches away from the liner and 3 days later the pool stretched out so far it was laying on top of them

Did you dig out the grass before or just put soil on top of grass??

nice i would fill the outside with chips mull but real nice n thnx

good jobs should u put something under yhe leggs like a brick or wood block

Any issues with drainage? From rain or water splashing over the pool? We just built ours like yours but haven’t set the pool up so I was wondering since everything was flat if you found issues with water pooling in the box. And if so what was your solution? Thanks!

Question did you bond the pool? Like the electricity has to be bonded ( what my permit says however I wonder if it needs done) we have the same pool

Hello. Did you rip up the grass before putting the soil down, leveling it then putting down the weed barrier? then sand & leveling again. Thank you for the video. I

thnx for getting back to me very lovely, finaly i have n idea mine is 18 by 48 so i should do a 20 by 20?? i want to square mine off to

Did your post sink into the ground how has your sandbox held up with weather rain etc

Did you do any leveling dig out the ground at all before placing the wood?

Hey there, any issues with the pool pad (like erosion or something) so far?? Im thinking about doing the same thing you did here. Thanks

Did you use treated wood ? And what size did u use?

So it's been a couple years how well did it hold up?

Hi Bree do you happen to remember what kind of brackets it was y’all bought for the corners?

How well is your pool holding up ?

is the power cord that u use for the filter waterproof?

My horizontal bars definitely didn’t slide right in like yours did. Took some finessing.

sorry if you already mentioned.. I may have missed … do you have a link or info to the pool you used here? Thanks !

Nice ! What is the name of the sand you use ?

Where did you get the cover ?

I used 2" insulation foam sheets for the base

It looks great, so helpful. How's it holding up?? Could you do an updated video?? Thank you ssoo much!

Getting a sand filter was a game changer. Intex should he ashamed for selling that filter with their large pools. Going to convert to a salt system this year. Looks good

Hey, what size is your base area and what size is the pool

How many bags of sand did you use ?

Hi! what size is your frame?

What type of sand did you use?

Idk if anybody has asked this, please forgive me if they have. What did you do for rain water drainage?

Our Intex pool rusted, rails ,post etc. Last maybe 2 seasons.

Dang Bree your very pretty!

How much was for 2 yards of sand?

i want to do that. What's the size

I just realised if this a 14 its huge n mine is an 18 wow these things are massive

How much sand did you need?
