New setup- driveway? 16x48 Ultra Intex / Saltwater

[Pappy]

How much pitch is on the slab? Our 15' Intex is about 1" out of level. I'd think that if you were within an inch of level across the 16', you'll be ok, but I wouldn't go any more than an inch. If it IS more than an inch, I'd level it with a self leveling compound like is used under ceramic floor tiles or a "sand mix" cement.

Also, the perimeter of the pool being flat and level is far more important than the middle. You want all the legs to be level with each other and the area between the feet of the legs to be level with the feet. However if it slopes gradually 2 or 3 inched downward toward the center, that wouldn't hurt anything, and would save on leveling material.

Also, if you have the cartridge filter, order a couple of the good cartridges (referenced earlier in the Super Simple Recipe) now. Our experience with Intex cartridges was dismal at best.
