I created a pool out of a 300Gal polymer livestock watering tank. I hooked up a sand filter and an inline jacuzzi heater which cycles daily. The kids have used it for 3 years straight.
@cpassehl Жыл бұрын
We’ve had a stock tank pool for 4 years now. No liner, just the galvanized tank (about $400 at the time, had to transport myself). Bought a pump/filter for an intex kid pool. From there just needed to cut an inlet/outlet with a hole saw, and visit the plumbing aisle at Home Depot for a handful of plumbing parts to connect the pump. Never had a rust or leak issue, just re-sealed the seams as a precaution of the first time this summer. Uses 2-3 chlorine tabs in a floater each week. We are in Wisconsin, so temps usually in the mid 80’s here. Location is part shade and the water stays around 75 degrees without doing anything. The metal pool is not hot to the touch, the water dissipates the heat. I tip it on its side for the winter months and store it against our shed.

If using flex seal or anything like that, you probably should do a solar test. I’ve heard that they are not very uv resistant which would create a mess pretty quickly. A lot easier to just get a poly stock tank that are made uv stable.

You're keeping that pool pretty full - I wonder if it might not be a good idea to install some kind of liner around the edges to keep splash/rain overflow from degrading your decking/fasteners too quickly? I think I remember you using a composite deck board, so maybe it's not a huge deal.

Screen cover (so critters don’t fall in) or solid plastic cover tied down? Do you use a robot skimmer? Can you make suggestions on how we might consider the Maintenace for a non residence? Thank you!

Depending on the solar orientation, it will get increasingly warm as the summer goes on. I’ve even been to lakes that were unrefreshingly warm on the surface if the cooler water below isn’t stirred up. The good news though is that the cover you’re getting will reduce the solar heat gain considerably. The other good news is that it’s not much water so fairly easy to cool with 50-60 degree tap water.
