    Default Intex Ultraframe 12x24 How Level is Level?

    Hi new member here. Just put up the Intex ultraframe 12x24 and it's almost done filling.

    I'm seeing that it's not 100% level, but not too far off. It's about '2 liner blocks' off from one side to the other (the long way). Is this cause for concern or is it considered close enough.

    I definitely don't want to have to drain and start all over again if I can help it.

    Hi thanks for the reply. I am actually using the salt system, so is the bleach still recommended in that case or no?

    The liner has blue blocks as a pattern. On one side of the pool the water has filled to the point where there are 4 blocks from the water line to the top, and the other side there are 6 blocks visible. I realize now that this was not the best way to pose the question, so I measured and the difference from one side to the other is about 2 and a half inches. Is this 'close enough'? thanks!

    2.5" is stretching it -- so no guarantees. But I think some people have gotten away with it.

    With an Intex? 2.5" off? I think you are living very dangerously and risking a collapse, but that's just IMHO.

    I went further and measured all around, and it seems that I just have a high corner. the other 3 corners are all within an inch of each other but the one corner is about 2.5.. still cause for alarm? I'm thinking (hoping) that since it's only going to be up for about a month I can level ot that one corner down before next season..
