A: This pool is 48 inches deep!

A: This pool is only 15 ft across!

A: Correction... It is 48" deep. :)

A: It’s round so it’s 18’ across at all points and 48 inches tall.

A: This particular pool is 15' across and 42" deep holding 4,440 gallons @ 90% capacity.

A: Depends on your car. Measure the space. The box is 48" long. I was easily able to fit it into my little prius with the seats down. Small car power!

A: Pretty large. I picked it up in a Chevy Trax. Any suv would work. It’s about 4 feet long and weighs 100lbs

A: I picked it up in a Ford Explorer.

A: I had the same problem no one can give me an answer even at the helpdesk over the phone pretty much the stock of the item was moving so fast that it wasn’t allowing you to put it in a cart I drove to about eight stores to get mine

A: Hi Katherine. You should reach out to support. This section is dedicated to product questions and is probably not your quickest avenue to web support questions.

A: Yes it does, a regular outlet will work.

A: Yes it does. A regular outlet will do.

A: If you click on "show more" in the description, it states that the pool is 15' in diameter.

A: It is a 15 ft. Round Diameter and 48" deep if you fill to the very top. Most people fill it a little lower or it will slosh out a lot.

A: the one that comes with it, they say to change weekly. we are currently upgrading to sand filter which is supposed to last years on the one bag, so will see

A: We upgraded to a higher capacity Intex Pump and hook that up to an Intex brand Saltwater converter which converts salt added to the pool water to chlorinate the water. We will never go back to using regular chlorine. This has been so much better for our skin. The salt is harder on the metal frame after a few years but we get a new pool every few years anyway on average. All we have to change is the filter in the pump every so often. No buying chlorine or shock and the water is crystal clear.

A: I live in WI and have always left mine up. My blue colored intex pool lasted 6 years, but the grey colored liner has only lasted about 3 years - still get your $$ worth, just not sure why that was. I buy a winter cover and shock it good before I drain it half way and remove the filter. Never had any issues.

A: We ended up leaving our pool up after Hurricane Harvey. We had too much to deal with so we left it up. We drained and cleaned it in the spring. We took a sample of water to our local pool company, and it was spot on. We left it up again this past year, and did the same thing. Water was perfect. We did not have a pool cover. We plan on purchasing one this year so that cleaning the pool during the spring will be an easier process.

A: We bought an affordable higher capacity Intex pool pump which works much better and has a lot stronger flow especially if you add a secondary device like the saltwater converter. We got the Saltwater system knowing full well it would be hard on the pool frame. (Heads up: Rusty frame is not covered by the pool warranty.) It is so nice to not have to buy chlorine and shock and test the water and endure the harsh chemicals that we feel it's well worth it. Actually seems to be good for the skin and the water is always crystal clear. We get 3 years out of these pools before the frame is compromised by oxidization but usually we replace the pool by then anyways. We have never tried the sand filter for Intex but maybe someday. We have a few pool pumps laying around unused because we always use our stronger pump and saltwater converter with each new pool we replace. In ten years it's still less money and trouble than a permanent pool. We are in Michigan so it is only used maybe 3 months a year, easily taken down folded up, put in contractor bags and stored for the winter. It's actually gotten to be a nice family tradition working together putting up these pools every spring.

A: You can use either. It comes with a basic pump and you would have to buy chlorine separate. You can purchase and use a saltwater system with the pool. Just be aware that the salt water can cause the metal frame to sometimes rust prematurely, so you may want to consider that when deciding.

A: Actual is 48" to the exact top. Probably want to keep it around 42-45 inches deep which is deep enough to cool off and also have plenty of fun. Any higher will just slosh out anyways.

A: It's 48 inch tall and fills to 90% of height, so actual water height would be 43.2 inch deep.

A: Some grasses are aggressive and will try to poke thru like Nut Sedge, St. Augustine and Bermuda grasses. Don't install over these grasses. Also the pool includes a ground cloth so make sure to put that down before installing pool on any surface. The pool includes a filter pump that helps to keep it clean. The ease of keeping a pool clean has such a wide variety of factors. Some basics to make your life easier include not placing the pool underneath a tree, having clean feet before entering, ensure filter in pool filter pump is cleaned regularly. Doing some of these basics can make pool maintenance a lot easier.
