Happy to help!

Thank you so much for the critique of my methods. These so called not doing a damn thing has worked for me. The hoses duo not like to be lifted up and down as you describe. For they are old and brittle. So the black pieces work better for me. All my subscribers or few May benefit from your alternate method Thanks again

Thank you for watching and hopefully you subscribed to the channel. Now why no end video. I was struck by a truck inside a building and really knocked my world for a loop. Hence the reason for the long Hiatus from posting anything. We have had to move because of all of this crap, But know this I will be returning with more content. Thanks again for stopping by friend.

Thanks ✌️

Pretty sure it was about 4yds maybe 5..pretty expensive stuff. But worth placing underneath the liner. Much softer on your feet under the pool. Much less chance of it getting a hole...tear...or worse.good luck.

@@jaxgman44 Awesome, thanks for the reply!

Kind of hard to explain through writing. Basically the center of the circle is your level point... Move the board around and place a brick at several locations.. This will be your level.

The sand was damp when apllying it. I tamped the sand briefly as i ran the 2x4 around the circle to level it. Not with a tamper per say but was really smooth, allowed to setle for a few dys before erecting the pool on top of the sand base. Thank you for watching stay tuned for upcoming videos of everyday goings ons.

Right . I was also scared

Stacey Gipson, did not read that anywhere. Having set up this pool on both the bare ground and on a sand base. The sand is much BETTER considering the button if the pool is prone to punctures, sitting on the bare ground even the slightest stick or heavy weed can puncture the liner. But with the sand (and a tarp) much smoother bottom. Feels much better on your feet running around in the pool

Stacey Gipson The sand acts as a buffer between the fragile liner, and the dirt and rocks and weeds. Spray weed killer on the sand and saturate. It is recommended that you put down 2" of sand to protect the liner. But the base frame should sit on the leveled hard surface (possibly with patio stones at the uprights) and ALWAYS Dig out the high side (avoid filling)! www.backyardcitypools.com/AG-Basic-Pool-Installation-Guide.htm

Intex installation video on their website says not to use sand.

Jose Ramirez, Great question, the answer is. To have a nice firm but smooth bottom of thee pool, sand will provide that. Setting the pool right oin the ground brings in a potential host of issues, sticks can poke, break through the liner, maybe not at first. But add a couple 1.000 gallons of water weight and you have a rough bottom of your pool to stand on, and the real threat of a puncture from a unknown source. Hope that helps.

jaxgman44 thanks for the info boss. I just got a chance to finish watching your whole video great info ,looking into a pool.alot of things to consider.thanks again.

Right lol look at my circle! 🤣

No there not! That is exactly How they came in the bag supplied . if the washer was on the other way, it would not have enough length to snap into place. This is the 4th pool I have installed and all of them have the washers facing up like you see in this video. Thank you very much for watching and keep the comments coming. Good Day

haha i was going to say the same thing. but the video is 2 years old

Steven Bemos, no sir I'm in northeast Florida

please read the below response for size information, thank you.

House Of Games , I used approximately 3 yards of sand, I had it delivered right beside the pool and then after lunch I leveled the dirt in spread a small layer of sand on top to aid in leveling and to make it smooth. worked great, I would not recommend putting the blue tarp underneath it if you have water flow over your property, the pool wanted to move so I had to build a small bulkhead to hold the ground in place so pool would not wash away. thanks for watching

Garit Preble how many pounds of sand would that be? & is play sand ok or what kind of sand

Maira Madera , sorry for the delay. I used regular white sand. From the local Rock and mulch supplier. It was about 3 yards I think. And was just enough to get a 4"base all around the bottom

Raquel Hernandez I used I think it was 3 yards of sand. didn't look like much when they dumped Kitty off off the truck. but it spread out quite well as you see.

Intex says not to use sand??

ok sorry for the delay. Yes I put that smaller pool right on the grass. If you want to take out all of the grass you can. BUT at least take a hard rake and the a flexible one and rake the area very well, making sure to get rid of any possible twigs or sticks that could puncture a hole in the bottom of the pool. The new video for the bigger pool I did lay down about 3 yards of sand and leveled it out with a 2x4 stuck in the middle with a large nail. This worked very well for the big pool but i found it not necessary for the smaller pool. now a word to the wise, Definitely Vacuum out the pool and clean it out the best you can before you drain it. Then starting from one side start standing or propping the pool up in the air and get as much of the bottom off the ground as possible. Once propped up let it stay up for at least a day to let the bottom dry off ,then lower it down and flip it over and rinse off the bottom and again let it dry completely before you roll it up and double bag it to put it away for the winter. i had my small one for over 6 years doing it this way and every year when i took it back out for set up I did not get slapped in the face with a fowl odor after opening the trash bags. Hope this helps and good luck.

Putting these pools on sand voids the warranty. I just learned this today. Don't do it!

Mason sand, sometimes called mortar sand, can normally be found at any sand/gravel yard or masonry supply yard. It is usually measured in yards. It is very fine and should not contain any rocks or pebbles. This will create a very smooth bottom and is the most popular method to use when installing an above ground pool.

Brian King, what I did was to put or attach a wedge board from the middle to about 6 ft in. cut like about 8 inches down to nothing, then attach it tho the bottom of your leveling board you have. now when you drag this board around it will create a slight reverse dome shape in the middle of the pool level area. this is how to get this deeper I the middle for a round pool. hope that helps.

The Farmacy Seeds Network THANK you for the kind words

extension cord lengthens the distance the electricity has to travel and weakens the amount of juice that gets to the motor, this will fry a motor too much or too little amps or volts to the motor will fry any electric motor some faster than others. Read the owners manual and it will explain maybe better.

Hello steve, thank you for watching my videos, please browse them all you never know what you will find, and if you have something that you want me to make a video for just shoot me a message. now about the rope this has been a thorn in my side since I very first put this video out about 7 years ago. Please read back and realize the rope is disintegrated and does absolutely nothing. the new pool we have now doesn't even have the rope. I put that pool up and took it down clean for i think it was 6 years. the rope never cause damage problem. again thank you for looking at my videos, I really do appreciate the feedback.. please look at all the other videos.. jaxgman44

look at video #1 in this series and it explains how i leveled the sand with the 2x4 and the piece on the bottom to make a little deeper in the middle, hope this helps you and please ask any questions you want to and i will try and respond as quickly and efficiently as possible
