Use a pool shock with a decent amount of available chlorine, and run your filtration system after you shock your pool. The water might appear cloudy after you shock, but will clear as it’s filtered. How often you shock depends on how often you use your pool, and the climate you’re living in. We recommend shocking Intex pools every week, especially if you’re having a heat wave or heavy rains. Heat and excess water can knock your chlorine levels to sub-par levels pretty quickly. To test the pool’s resilience, we let a line of rambunctious kids hop in and out and back in again, day after day.
Plus, this set comes with a pool filter, cover, ladder and galvanized steel frame made to hold up in all types of summertime weather.

It’s easy to assemble and maintain and fits perfectly on a flat surface in your backyard. It’s made of strong and durable material, Intex’s high-molecular Super-Tough PVC, which is highly resistant to damage from abrasion, impact, and sunlight. Small pools don’t require a large amount of power to keep the water crystal clear. This filter and pump combo from Intex is affordable, easy to use, and easy to install.
Intex is a popular and well respected brand of above ground swimming pools, meaning they rest on flat ground as opposed to being in the ground like inground pools. If you have a metal frame pool, or if you have mild winters you feel the pool can tolerate, you’ll need to do some winterizing. Intex pools are above ground pools that come in a variety of styles, but all of them are easy to set up and easy to maintain. They have sizes to fit any space and prices to fit any budget. Above-ground pools can be great if you’re looking for a place for your little ones to get more familiar with swimming before venturing out into larger bodies of water. With this rectangular pool, there’s plenty of room for you to join in and make sure they know the ropes.
However, since it also affects the germ-killing power of your sanitizer, you probably will start to notice dirty water or algae growth. Also, try to rake the ground and make sure there are no sharp objects or rocks that could cause lumps in the bottom of the pool. But maybe the most impressive improvement is their filtration system that they upgraded to provide better circulation and water clarity. These come in a pretty big variety of sizes but also come in various shapes, so you can install them in any size and shape of yard. Some people dream of having a pool in their yard their whole lives.
This is a high-dose chlorine treatment that sort of resets your chemicals and gets them balanced again. Replace the filter at least once a year if you have a cartridge system. And clean it off every couple of months with a hose. Keep a weekly maintenance schedule and try not to miss it. This should include balancing the water chemistry, removing debris, and vacuuming out the bottom.
Secondly, it’s less expensive for the same reason. Intex pool kits come with cartridge intex baby float filtration systems. In fact, they work pretty great and are really convenient.
Your filter pumpcirculates the water, evenly distributing sanitizer and other chemicals while cleaning the water. Compared to inground or above ground models, Intex pools require less investment and zero construction. Options range from basic inflatables to steel-framed models you can convert to a permanent part of your yard. They often include a ground cover and debris cover. This durable above-ground pool is a solid investment, especially if you’re looking for ways to coax the kids into being active under the summer sun. We used the pool with the pump off the majority of the time and switched it on after heavy use by dirt-covered kids.
