Another new one with questions
It has been 10 years or so since we had an in ground pool, and we loved it.
We now moved to the Texas Hill country and with a limited budget, want to start back with an above ground pool. Looking at the Intex 16'
We would really like an oval or rectangle pool, because i think it would be easier to build a deck to. But I can't find any smaller, lower priced units. Does anybody know of any?
So, if we go round, Been looking at the Intex 16' x 48" Ultra frame pool.
More questions:
1. The package I'm looking at has the SWCG. I read that section of the forum and they sound like a nice way to keep the pool chlorinated. Is this suggested for a smaller above ground?
2. Any problems with the Intex 16' Ultra frames anybody wants to let me know about?
I want to get started leveling an area this weekend and order the pool soon. It's hot down here.

I can't comment on the pools you mentioned but just wanted to welcome you to the Pool Forum!

Remember - Level means measured level not just looks level. Ben recently posted this about a water level:

SWCG can be a convenient source of chlorine but many of the Intex SWCGs contain a copper ionizer. Copper causes problems in pools - It can stain the pool, fingernails, light and colored hair green. It can also lead to inadequate sanitization. If you get one with a copper ionizer, I would recommend that it be removed, disconnected or defeated.
Take a look at the stickies in Pool Chemistry for Intex-type Pools, They should help.
