FAQs
Can I leave the pool up all winter?
It is highly recommended to disassemble, clean, and store the pool in a climate-controlled area during winter to prevent damage from freezing temperatures.
How often should I change the filter cartridge?
Depending on usage and debris levels, you should clean the cartridge weekly and replace it every 2-3 weeks for optimal filtration.
Does the pool come with a ladder?
This specific kit includes the frame, liner, pump, and cover; a ladder is usually sold as a separate accessory.
What is the water capacity?
At 90% capacity, the pool holds approximately 6,503 liters (1,718 gallons) of water.
Is a special surface required under the pool?
While it can be placed on short grass, using a protective pool ground cloth or heavy-duty tarpaulin is strongly advised to protect the bottom of the liner.
Troubleshooting
Pool frame seems uneven
Drain the pool and ensure the ground is perfectly level, then refill; an uneven base puts excessive stress on the steel joints.
Water turning cloudy
Check the filter cartridge for debris and clean or replace it, then verify that your chemical balancing (pH/chlorine) is within the recommended range.
Small leak in liner
Use an underwater PVC repair patch kit to seal the puncture while the pool is either drained or in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Site Preparation: Select a flat, level area free of sharp objects. Leveling the ground is critical to prevent frame stress.
Assembly: Connect the tubular frame sections according to the manual before stretching the liner over the structure.
Filling: Begin filling slowly, smoothing out any wrinkles in the floor liner as the water depth reaches 2-3 inches.
Maintenance: Regularly test water pH levels and add chlorine or non-chlorine sanitizers as required.
Off-Season: Drain completely using the integrated drain plug, ensure the material is dry, and store in a cool, dry place to prolong the life of the PVC liner.
