How to repair top ring» The Easy Set Pool can be set up on grass, compacted dirt, or pavement that is completely flat, level and stable. A ground cloth or tarp is recommended for under the pool. DO NOT set up on sand or muddy ground that could possibly shift. It is NOT recommended to be set up on wooden decks, balconies or elevated platforms.
» No, above-ground pools may collapse under the weight of ice and snow and the PVC walls will be damaged.
» Empty the pool, use a soft brush, mild detergent and water to remove algae stains from the pool liner. Thoroughly rinse and dry before refilling or storage.
» To the line near the bottom of the inflated ring. Do Not Overfill above the line as this may cause the pool walls to become unstable and possibly result in injury or property damage from the water flowing over the pool wall while in use.
» Yes. Small tears or holes can be repaired with the enclosed repair kit. The surface should be clean and dry before affixing the patch.
Note: a pool patches video is available on the website.
How to patch the liner with a repair kit» Water condition varies from country to country, states, region, and within specific zones and areas. In some regions the water could be "hard water", this is because the water contains excessive minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, thus causing the water to adopt a milky color. Check your local pool supply store for advice on water treatment and balance.
» The surface must be perfectly flat, solid and level. Pay close attention to the pool’s stability and levelness in the early stages of filling your pool up with water. If after about an inch of water is accumulated, and the water is not spreading out evenly, or the pool appears to be bulging to one side, stop filling the pool, drain the water, and select a new level site. If the pool is set up on a slope, the pool will be lopsided and can collapse causing personal injury or property damage.
» Your pool can be easily emptied and stored in a safe place during the winter. However, many people choose to leave their pool up year round. In areas where freezing temperatures occur, there is risk of ice damage. It is recommended to drain, disassemble and store the pool in a safe place when temperatures drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. See "How To Drain Your Pool" section.
Clean pool water thoroughly (If Easy Set Pool make sure the top ring is properly inflated).
Remove the skimmer (if applicable) or any accessories attached to the threaded strainer connector. Replace strainer grid if necessary. Be sure all accessories parts are clean and completely dry before storage.
Plug the Inlet and Outlet fitting from the inside of the pool with the plug provided (sizes 10' and 12'). Close the Inlet and Outlet Plunger Valve (15', 18', and 24').
Remove the ladder (if applicable) and store in a safe place. Be sure the ladder is completely dry before storage.
Remove the hoses that connect the pump and filter to the pool.
Add appropriate winter chemicals. Consult your local pool dealer as different regions vary greatly.
Cover pool with Intex Pool Cover. IMPORTANT: INTEX POOL COVER IS NOT A SAFETY COVER.
Clean and drain pump, filter housing and hoses. Remove and discard old filter cartridge (keep a spare cartridge available for next season).
Bring pump and filter parts indoors and store in a safe and dry area, preferably heated.
STORING POOL FOR WINTER
After draining pool, dry pool liner completely (100%). Sprinkle talcum powder on liner to prevent vinyl from sticking together and to absorb any water you may have missed.
Roll pool liner to avoid creases and relocate to storage area. Place it in original carton if you saved it.
Keep all small parts together with filter pump, manual, and pool, and then place in an area that will remain at room temperature throughout the storage season.
» Depending on usage and chemical balance this figure can vary. If properly filtered and chemically balanced, the pool water should last through a summer season. You can reduce the need for water changes by keeping your pool covered when not in use, testing the water regularly to ensure proper chemical balance, operating the pump for an adequate number of hours each day, keeping the filter pump cartridge clean and replacing the cartridge when needed.
» Excessive use of pool chemicals can cause the color of the inside wall printing to fade away faster, like a heavy chlorinated public swimming will cause a bathing suit color to fade
» Yes. Contact your local pool supply store for information on water treatment and provide the estimated number of gallons of water in your pool. Also the INTEX Krystal Clear™ Saltwater Systems will keep your pool clean from algae and bacteria.
» Yes, in some cases certain types of hardy grass such as Bermuda or St. Augustine can grow through the liner. Before setting up your pool, it is recommended that you clear the area of these types of hardy grasses. INTEX will not be held responsible for grasses that may grow through the ground cloth and / or pool liner, as this is not a manufacturing defect. A ground cloth or tarp may be helpful in preventing this from occurring.
» Do not over inflate or use high-pressure air compressors. Inflate top ring to be slightly firm to the touch. Pay attention to air temperature variation! In cold weather the top ring will lose some pressure, air will contract. If this occurs, DO NOT add air since the air inside will expand again once the temperature RISES. In hot weather, the air will expand. You MUST let some air out to prevent the top ring from failing due to excess internal pressure. An over-inflated ring heated by the sun may burst or lead to leaks in the seam.
» A PVC or silicon based glue for repairing camping mats, tents, shoes, inflatable boats, etc are suitable for INTEX pools.
» Processing time is approximately 3 business days from the date we receive the product. It is then shipped by Fed EX Ground from Long Beach CA. Therefore, transit time will be determined by your location. (for U.S & Canada only)
» It depends on the package purchased. Be sure to read the retail box prior to purchasing.
» No. Dogs, cats and all other household pets should be kept away from the pool to avoid being trapped inside, and also to protect the structural integrity of the pool. (There is a risk of the sidewalls and inflatable ring becoming punctured by pet claws and teeth).
» INTEX pools do not have a manufacturer’s warranty. However, we will replace manufacturing defective product within 90 days of purchase (Except filter pumps, saltwater systems, electric heater and LED pool light which have a separate written warranty) with a copy of the sales receipt.

» Remind your family and friends to always hose or rinse off any dirt or tanning oil from their hands, feet and body prior to entering the pool. Use the INTEX pool cover to keep your pool covered all the time when not in use. This will help keep the wind and the other elements from depositing dirt and debris in your pool.
» Keep pets away from the pool. Sharp objects and jewelry like a metal wristwatch, bracelets, necklaces, rings, earrings, and hairpins should be taken off before entering the pool. The small sharp objects can puncture the PVC ring, or can be sucked into the filter pump causing permanent damage.
» No. Do not allow any pool occupants (even small children) to lean over, lie down, or sit on the inflatable top ring. This will cause instability in the pool wall and cause the water to flood over the side of the pool.
» If your e-mail address was provided at the time the order was placed, and your order was shipped by Fed EX, you will receive an e-mail confirmation with the tracking number. You can then go to the Fed EX website to track the package.
» The base or bottom of the pool is not laid out properly (flat without wrinkles). The pool liner must extend evenly around the outside of the inflatable ring when filling the pool with water. If this is the case, and the pool is still lopsided, then the ground is not 100% level.
» Two or more hours, depending on pool size, hose size and water pressure. Remember to observe the fill up process for several minutes to make sure that the pool is filling evenly and the water surface is level inside the pool.
» Orders are shipped within 2-3 business days once the order is placed. Orders will be shipped by regular mail or Fed EX (depending on the size of the order). Therefore, transit time will be determined based on your location and shipping method.
» When a top ring is inflated during a hot and sunny day, the air inside will contract (less pressure) when the ambient temperature drops during the evening or early morning, thus giving a false impression the top ring keeps deflating. Do not over-inflate the top ring, and make sure the air valve is firmly secure and inserted.
» Any refund request must be made at the original place of purchase.
» Laminated PVC which is made with 3 separate layers of material for extra strength and durability - two outer layers of heavy gauge PVC laminated to an inner layer of polyester mesh for extra reinforcement.
» Black stains around the top ring are normally caused by suntan or sunblock lotion that can float on the water surface and accumulate on the side. Clean the inflatable ring after each use with a damp cloth, and cover the pool when the pool is not in use with a pool cover. For a better hygiene, always use an INTEX Wall Mount Surface Skimmer to clean the water surface on a daily basis, and change the pool water once or twice per summer season.
