The cap that you took off for aeration is part of the The Hydro Aeration Technology. This technology allows the pump to mix air with water, which induces the oxidation of iron and manganese within the pool water. This process helps water to stay crystal-clear. In addition to that, the concentration of negative ions on the surface of the water is increased by the aeration technology. It further ensures you clean and environment-friendly water for the pool.

Great job man. Its nothing better than a pool in your backyard. We have a metal frame 20 years ago and never look back ,it was great for our family in the summer months. Today I see this kind of pool more often and it looks great. Maintaining the pool is easy 12 hours running the pump and once a week the algecide and chlorine bar. And the pool is clear al the time. And if you have hard water just ad clarifier for the pool. Have lots of fun and good luck.

We kept meaning to upgrade to the cake tier type but after about 6 years, ended up giving it away since in-laws lived in community with huge inground community pool very close. Thanks for sharing

My wife just ordered this same pool yesterday (figured if we're in lockdown all summer we'll need something for the kid to do!). I'm not super excited about all the work it's going to take in order to get the desired final result, but I know it's absolutely necessary. Unfortunately our back yard has zero flat spots in it, it's all on a bit of a slope, so that'll be fun. I'm thinking if I sort of start on it now I can break it up over a week or two and maybe it won't seem so bad. I saw another video on setting these up where they used a laster level to get all the legs exactly the same height.

But with Corona not a single pool is available virtually anywhere in my country. I found this one with the sandfilter, the stairs etc etc for 999 euro. Due to Coid-19 we are not allowed to go to southern Europe or even to go to our own coast. And so people buy pools as an alternative. So there is no stock. Also the summers nowadays get so hot you really want to cool off (41 C in the countryside just 2 km form my town last year, 38 C the year before!)...I am sure these pools will be a very popular item for weeks to come.

I don't know what type of grass you have but intrusive grasses like St. Augustine & Bermuda grasses "Will" grow through your liner... The manufacturer also recommends not to use sand, since it can easily wash out.. specially if is used on top of ground (above grade). We have been several days working the area. We decided to go 2' beyond the boundaries of the pool, to install edging to keep any grass or weed away from the pool sides and then fill that area with mulch al the way around. We've already ripped the grass out which happens to be St. Augustine grass, installed the edging and now we're leveling the ground. With the assistance of a self made water level, it makes it exact. We plan to install 12" concrete pavers at final grade as well for the 16 vertical support beams. Once the pavers are installed and leveled we will be spraying Round-Up, install a weed barrier and a general purpose vinyl tarp covering the entire area just to make sure nothing grows. We're hoping this unit last us at least 2 years.

It makes the pool higher and by 2 inches an the seam is elevated vs flat and I think it could cause stress and eventual leak??? I’m asking since I’m doing exactly the same setup and putting a 2” paver but concerned the elevated seam may eventually leak due to pressure. Have you had any issues with leaks or that part of your pool?

One question. I have levelled the ground etc. But if I put 4,7 cm thick paves (concrete tiles) on top of the tarp...aren't the legs lifted too high? Or is this not a problem?
@axelruntschke

You'll want to "bury" the pavers so they're level with the ground.

@@axelruntschke Thx! I did but where the sand (for levelling) is deeper I did raise them a little. A cm or so. I figured they might sink in a bit and if not 1 cm (= less than 0,5") off the mark is not a problem. The thing is 90% filled and yes it is still 1 cm off. I am happy with that. The sun is shining 17 hours a day here and it is really shining all day long so it can do its thing...Watertemp is 15 C now ( 60 F). We'll see how fast it will rise.

Unfortunately this pool will rust out FAST. Ours lasted 3 years. I suggest spray painting every piece of metal with flex paint. Bees like to make nests in the top holes. Put dryer sheets in each end, they don’t like it the odor. Check the legs often. Ours rusted thru and we didn’t know it. Very dangerous.
