POOL SETUP
- IMPORTANT SITE SELECTION AND GROUND PREPARATION INFORMATION
- The pool location must allow you to secure all doors, windows, and safety barriers to prevent unauthorized, unintentional, or unsupervised pool entry.
- Install a safety barrier that will eliminate access to the pool for young children and pets.
- Failure to set up the pool on flat, level, compact ground and to assemble, and fill it with water per the following instructions could result in the pool’s collapse or the possibility that a person lounging in the pool could be swept out/ejected, resulting in serious injury or property damage.
- Risk of electric shock: connect the filter pump only to a grounding-type receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or residual current device (RCD).
- To reduce the risk of an electric shock, do not use extension cords, timers, plug adapters, or converter plugs to connect the pump to the electric supply.
- Always provide a properly located outlet. Locate the cord where it cannot be damaged by lawnmowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
- See the Filter Pump manual for additional warnings and instructions.
- Risk of serious injury: DO NOT attempt to assemble the pool in high wind conditions.
Select an outdoor location for the pool with the following requirements in mind:
- The area where the pool is to be set up must be flat and level.
- Do not set up the pool on a slope or inclined surface.
- The ground surface must be compacted and firm enough to withstand the pressure and weight of a fully set-up pool. Do not set up the pool on mud, sand, soft or loose soil conditions.
- Do not set up the pool on a deck, balcony, or platform, which may collapse under the weight of the filled pool.
- The pool requires at least 4 feet of space all around the pool from objects that a child could climb on to gain access to the pool.
- Grass under the pool will be damaged. Splashing out chlorinated pool water could damage the surrounding vegetation.
- Eliminate all aggressive grasses first Certain types of grass such as St. Augustine and Bermuda, may grow through the liner. Grass growing through the liner is not a manufacturing defect and is not covered under warranty.
- The area shall facilitate drainage of the pool water after each use and/or for long-term pool storage.
IMPORTANT
- Before allowing anyone to use the pool, hold a family meeting. Establish a set of rules that include, at a minimum, the important safety rules and general aquatic safety information in this manual.
- Review these rules regularly and with all users of the pool, including guests.
- You may have purchased this pool with the filter pump. The pump has its own separate set of installation instructions. First, assemble your pool unit and then set up the filter pump.
- Estimated assembly time 30-60 minutes, (Note the assembly time is only approximate, and individual assembly experience may vary.)
- Liner Preparation
- Find a flat, level location that is free and clear of stones, branches, or other sharp objects that may puncture the pool liner or cause injury.
- Open the carton containing the liner, joints, legs, etc., very carefully as this carton can be used to store the pool during the winter months or when not in use.
- Take out the ground cloth (8) (if included) and spread it over the cleared area. Then take out the liner (6) and spread it out over the ground cloth, with the drain valve directed towards the draining area.
- Place the drain valve away from the house. Allow the sun to warm up the liner before inserting the beams (5) into the sleeve openings.
- IMPORTANT: Always set up the pool unit with at least 2 persons Do not drag the liner across the ground as this can cause liver damage and pool leakage (see drawing 1).
- During the setup of this pool liner, point the hose connections or openings in the direction of the electric power source. The outer edge of the pool should be within reach of the pump’s electrical connection.
- Horizontal Beams Assembly
- The frame pool’s legs (7) and beams (5) fall into two groups. The larger diameters are the horizontal beams that are slid (pushed) into the sleeve openings at the top of the liner.
- The smaller diameters are the vertical legs. Both these legs and beams fit into the T-joints (3).
- NOTE: Sprinkle some talcum powder over the horizontal beams before sliding them into the pool liner sleeve. This will make the removal of the beams from the liner easier during the disassembly or the pool.
- Starting at any location, but always working in the same direction, push the horizontal beam into the sleeve. Once the beam is centered take one of the T-joints and attach the joint to one end of the beam.
- Push the beam firmly into the T-joint.
- Circularly repeat this procedure until all the beams and joints have been connected.
- NOTE:
- It’s important to start from one location and work in the same direction until the last attachment. Do not start from multiple locations as this will make the connections difficult for the last few beams and joints.
- The last joint connection may be difficult to complete. You can do it though, if you first simultaneously raise the last joint and beam about 2 inches (5cm). Now insert the beam into the joint while lowering the pieces into position. The beam will easily slide into the joint. Ensure that the last joint is fully connected before proceeding to connect the legs.
- Vertical Legs Assembly
- Attach the legs (7) end cap (4-1) to the bottom of each leg (7) first. Attach the legs (10) end cap (4-2) to the bottom of each leg (10).
- With the beams and T-joint assembly resting on the ground, insert the top of the leg into the bottom of the T-joint (3). Continue the process with all the vertical legs.
- NOTE: This pool size does not come with an all-around center belt.
- Lift the beam assembly and make sure all the legs are in a vertical position. Push all the T-joints downward to ensure they are firmly connected to the legs.
- Attach the leg end cap (4) to the bottom of each leg (7) first. With the beams and T-joints assembly resting on the ground slide one vertical leg into the belt loop located in the middle of the pool liner and insert the top of the leg into the bottom of the T joint (3). Continue the process with all the vertical legs.
- Lift the beam assembly and make sure all the legs are in a vertical position. Push all the T-joints downward to ensure they are firmly connected to the legs.
- Pull gently in an outward direction, the bottom of the leg making sure the leg is vertical and perpendicular to the level ground.
- Filling of the pool
- The following applies to pool liners with hose connectors. The pool was purchased with a filter pump, insert one of the two plugs (8 & 9) into the filter pump outlets.
- Please follow the Filter Pump Instructions first and then proceed to the next installation step.
- Before filling the pool with water, ensure that the drain plug (1) inside the pool is closed and that the drain cap (2) on the outside is screwed on tightly.
- Fill the pool with no more than 1 inch. (2.5 cm) of water. Check to see whether the water is level.
- IMPORTANT: If the water In the pool flows to one side, the pool is not completely level. Setting up the pool on the unlevel ground will cause the pool to tilt resulting in the sidewall material bulging and a potential collapse or move pool if the pool is not completely level, you must drain the pool, level the area, or move the pool to a different area that is level, and re-fill the pool following the above directions.
- Smooth out the bottom liner wrinkles (from inside the pool) by pushing out where the pool floor and pool sides meet. Or, (from outside the pool) reach under the side of the pool, grasp the pool floor and pull in an outward direction. If the ground cloth is causing the wrinkles, have 2 people pull from opposite sides to remove all wrinkles. Use the properly assembled pool ladder when entering or exiting the pool during this process.
- Also, make sure all the legs are vertical and perpendicular to the ground.
- Fill the pool with water up to just below the sleeve line. (see drawing 4)
- When the water height more than 8’, the water pressure will cause the pool to tilt resulting in both sidewall materials in a potential sunken shape, which looks like the picture below (pic 1).
- Pls do not worry, keep filling the pool with water up to the sleeve line, it will shaped rightly as below picture (pic 2).
CLEANING OR REPLACING FILTER CARTRIDGES
It is recommended that the filter cartridge be replaced at least Regularly monitor the filter clogging level
- Make sure the filter pump is not operating. Disconnect the line cord.
- To prevent water from escaping the pool, unscrew the pool inlet nozzle (10) and strainer grid (11) from the strainer connectors and insert the hat-like plugs into the strainer connectors.
- In a counter-clockwise motion, remove the filter housing collar (12) and threaded cover (3).
- Be careful not to lose the cover seal (4).
- Remove filter cartridge (5) to clean it. The filter may be cleaned from the spray from a water hose.
- Use judgment as to whether the cartridge needs to be replaced. Only use the original Intex cartridge for replacement. See the “Parts Reference” section for details.
- Return the cartridge to the filtering position.
- Return the seal (4) and threaded cover (3) to their original positions and in a clockwise direction re-screw the housing collar (12) onto the filter housing.
- After service, open the air release valve, remove the plugs, allow any air to escape through the valve before tightening the valve again, and replace the pool inlet nozzle (10) and strainer grid (11).
- The pump is now primed with water again and may be turned on.
- Check the inlet and outlet openings regularly to ensure they are not obstructed thus preventing a good filtration.
- The disposal of any used filter media should be under applicable local regulations and legislation.
