    Default What kind of sustained winds can my pool survive ?

    I have an intex 16' x 48" ultra frame pool with 5100 gallons in it about 15-20 ft from my home in Central Florida. If there is a hurricane we usually don't get more than 100 mph winds in the center of the state. Can this pool survive those wind speeds or do I have to dismantle the pool beforehand?

    I'm pretty sure Intex doesn't have any info on that, but 100 mph winds? I think you can count on enough water sloshing out with those winds to allow the wind to lift the pool. If you wanna keep it, you'd better take it down.
