    Thank you! Just the info I needed. And yes, that's the right size. Got it from Sears.
    It's an Intex. Perfect for our needs right now. Basically an exercise pool for 1-2 people. Occasional visitors.

    Has had very little use so far. It's wedding week for daughter. We are crazy busy.

    Has a sand filter, for which we got quartz silica sand for pools. have been running it 6 hours each night. Didn't have a lot to spend, but didn't want the nightmare of those paper filters. Hoping this
    is a good compromise.

    Also, it's been a pretty cool season so far. The water temp is still cold.
    I think that's why the chlorine ppm level has been ok.

    Oh, no problem. I don't quite yet understand all the sections, anyway. )
