Very informative! This video reminds me of being in my pool. Nothing but 80’s music the whole day! Love it!!

It would be great if you could make a video regarding the chemicals you use and the regular daily / weekly maintenance you do. Your pool looks amazing!!

[@MoverandShaker]

We have a saltwater pool. It's just like the ocean. When you first start a new pool or open the pool, you test your water. The easy method besides test strips is a pool store. Bring a sample up to them they will tell you what you need to get your water balanced. They give you a recipe of what to add and how much in a very specific order. Once balanced. If you want a saltwater only pool... Add recommended salt per saltwater manual and follow start up instructions for the saltwater chlorinator. If you want a chemical pool do nothing (your trip to the pool store should have taken care of that ) for maintenance vacuum from your outboard skimmer once a week, use your micro net with pole for any floating objects, backwash pump to clean your pump sand clear. Just some tips. We also have a robotic vac that works 45 min. When we are in the house.

I have really enjoyed watching your intex pool videos! They have been very helpful, thank you!

[@MoverandShaker]

You're welcome and thank you! we did the same thing when we were new to the pool world and whenever we're thinking of purchasing new items like the saltwater system.

[@bertiez6530]

Thanks for the recommendation on the intex pool vacuum! It does a great job with little effort 👍

[@MoverandShaker]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching. Let us know if you have any questions.

You can see you really care about your pool, it will last a long time. I was in the pool industry for about 20 years and you wouldn't believe how often we would build a 20k dollar pool and you go back a few months later and it looks horrible. Enjoy the pool!

[@MoverandShaker]

Oh thank you so much! We definetly take pride and love our pool. We may move in a couple of years but someone will be able to enjoy it. The next one we get will be the rectangular sized pool, I just don't care for the exterior rails, but at least you can swim laps.

Hi! I have a saltwater pool but it keeps getting green. And I’m still having to shock at least every week and it goes clear again

[@MoverandShaker]

The only thing I can think of is it's either not being cleaned on the bottom enough or it's raining a lot have you seen our green pool scare video we have one in our playlist Maybe watching that would help. It's only happened to us once.

[@evannotthemenace1513]

@@MoverandShaker it had actually been raining a lot lately!

I like using my rechargeable pool vacuum... I hate dragging the hose around. First thing we do is drop in out rechargeable robot bottom cleaner and turn on filter... after 2 hours.. we put on cover.. If pool is not in use.. solar cover is always on ! I used to use all the chemicals weekly according to tested water by store... now I just use cotton balls instead of sand which eliminates any cloudiness and dollar store bleach and baking soda.. my pool for 4 months of crystal clear 100$ of the time, no backwashing was a whole $40.... Only low level is stabilizer but that is not important as chlorine level is always spot on ! Pool Chems are a scam !

[@MoverandShaker]

Very interesting! We have never heard of your methods before! Lucky for us because we have a salt water system now , we also have basically carefree water. We are loving it and would never go back to chemicals.

Where is the waterfall from ?

[@MoverandShaker]

Take a look at this video the link should be in the description kzbin.info/www/bejne/onvJmIJmrNl0hpI. also we have an entire playlist of pool topics.

[@lilpeppa117G]

What size pool is that

[@MoverandShaker]

18' x 52"

[@imvalentinee]

Where is that seat from???

[@MoverandShaker]

It was purchased off of eBay but Amazon had them too. I purchased mine in the winter when the prices were really low I got mine for 59 I think they're 89 usually in the summer but I wouldn't doubt if they're above that price now due to the demand of all pool supplies

[@imvalentinee]

Mover and Shaker is it for intex? We just got ours up about 2 weeks ago………… and your umbrella holder? Is that a pole pounded into the dirt? We live where it gets windy…… great idea!

[@MoverandShaker]

Yes it is Intex. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZu2qmOHndapidU The umbrellas and the poles are described in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnScf4qIrs-XY68 The polls are PVC pipe spray painted as you will see in the video and they're not pounded into the ground they're level on the concrete footer.
