    Default How much sand do I need under Intex pool??

    Hello, I just bought my first pool (Intex 15'x48'' round above ground). I rented a front end loader last weekend to level out the ground, which was previously a vegetable garden (hasn't grown anything for 2 years). HOW MUCH SAND DO I NEED to put under the pool now. People are saying 2 to 5 tons. That is a huge difference!!! I've also heard a "truck load" or 2. How much is that? I'm NOT buying sand by the bag, but will purchase it by weight...ex. 2 tons, if that's how much I need. PLEASE HELP ME ANSWER THIS QUESTION!!! Thank you!!!
