With the support legs, the bottom perimeter should be 2 feet extra on every side. It’s not recommended to set against a flat wall and it won’t be possible for the pool to set against a flat wall due to the extended support legs
Hi, thanks for your video! I am new to Pools: If I wanted to have the filter set up be on the end of the pool - the 12 foot side (farthest from house) but closest to the Power receptacle - how should I go about extending the tubing to reach that far? Has anyone done this? Do I need to use a PVC pipe set up.
You may check your local pool supply store. They may have the right length and size of tubing/hose for your application. I got mine from my local pool supply store and it was sold by foot.
Amazing the pool has lasted this long? Looks great! Where do you live? You take this down every year? Your voice got a little low…What is the base underneath?
I am in South-Western Ontario, Canada. Yes, it gotta be put up and taken down every year due to the cold winter months. The base is poured concrete pad and Gorilla under-pad. The pool was sold this year because the kids have grown out of it. So I no longer have it. Thanks
I am debating with pool or the 24x52 round pool. Can you tell me why you suggest this pool if you like to host? I will like to build a deck around it. Right now my yard is 22 by 22. I am nervous because I don’t want that 12 side to be so narrow.
Rectangular pool is more fun to lap swim, especially for kids. Round pool does not have enough room to swim from end to end. For a 12x24x52 pool, you need a 16’ x 28’ base area. Your yard is 22 x 22 which would not be big enough for this pool.
24’ is just the pool length. The arms/ legs extends 1 foot out from the wall which make the total dimension of the pool with arms/legs to be 14’ x 26’.
I suppose you meant the support legs. They extend about 16” at the bottom or roughly 12” from the top frame if drawing a perpendicular line down to the bottom. Basically if you are looking to build a base/foundation for this pool, add extra 2’ all around. I have a 16’ x 28’ concrete slab for this pool to sit on.
Please help. Is the bottom perimeter the same as the frame perimeter? Could this be set up flat against a wall?

Thinking about putting 12x24 in ground in our smaller backyard. Is it big enough for 5 kids at once?
Yes, lots of room for five kids at once.

@@PTranProductions Thank you. This helps.

Np!
Is it because of the extreme temperature change into winter you decided to take your pool down every year?
That’s correct! Vinyl liner gets brittle below zero C and it’ll be a disaster if the liner breaks.

@@PTranProductionsA 24 foot round pool has plenty of enough room to swim from end to end. It's 24 feet all the way around...
What kind of solar heater are you using? Thanks
It’s a Fafco Solar Bear 4’x20’ solar pool heater.

Is this the filter that came with original pool?
Yes, it’s the original sand filter that came with the pool. Only the skimmer is retrofit
My question is, is 24” with arms or just the pool?
24’ is just the pool length. The arms/ legs extends 1 foot out from the wall which make the total dimension of the pool with arms/legs to be 14’ x 26’.
They stretch out 13'10 at the width, and 25'10 at the length. This is directly from the Intex website.
What brand and model chlorinator is that? Thanks

How far does the arms come out from the pool?
I suppose you meant the support legs. They extend about 16” at the bottom or roughly 12” from the top frame if drawing a perpendicular line down to the bottom.

You are welcome!
Thank you! This answered my question.
A 16x28 concrete slab would be really expensive to have poured.
