I have a serious issue with this video. Specifically with adding the antifreeze. It should NOT be diluted with water. Plumbing antifreeze does not mix with water or prevent it from freezing, it is only meant to push water out. This is stated right on the bottle.

Are you doing this with the pump on or off?

I e bought 2 of these covers and they’re totally worthless installing this way. There are no clips for the rounded top pools and this cover is easily blown off when installed this way.

Every video and no one will show how to actually inflate it

Thanks for showing the struggles of rolling up the solar cover and placing it in the holder

how long was your power cord. The cords seem kind of short for these pumps

Thanks for the video. Why is the return close to the skimmer?

How do I know how much to overlap ?

So what do you suggest?

My liner was cut short and has pulled through the clip-on rail causing the liner to open up at top and sag into pool. I do not know what to do and was thinking to use waterproof tape to fix since I can't make the liner longer.

This video is too old to be useful! Shameful for What is supposed to be a reputable company. It's not that hard to make a video. This was posted 9 years ago and they probably 20 years ago. Ridiculous. Not a single part from the video matches what I got in 2024

I'm tempted to get one of these, cut it to shape, and glue it inside my 24x12 Intex Above Group Pool, which isn't the same as a hard walled Above Ground Pool, but is instead pretty much a big bag of water... My current liner is 9 years old, and living in the middle of Canada, where it's -50c some days in the winter, I have left this Intex pool standing and filled to about 6 inches lower than the 2 water output ports. It's not leaking, and seems fine, other than there is no longer any blue checkered pattern to be seen from the normal water level line and down, which I read was important to maintaining some heat in your Above Ground Pool, as the sun hits the dark blue and helps heat the water, which is why it's also best to have a CLEAR bubble pool cover, instead of a blue one, because the sun gets through the CLEAR bubble cover to hit the dark blue checkered pattern. This is the logic behind the CLEAR pool cover incase anyone was interested... And which is why a blue bubble cover is not as good, because the cover itself heats up on top of the water, and heat rises, so the heat is above the cover in that case, and not under it, where your cold water is, and instead of heating the pool, you are just insulation the pool from getting heated below, and trapping in the cold... Anyway, since the liner isn't really a problem other than the pattern missing, I was thinking of lining it with one of these, as Intex is in the USA, I think California is where a new liner would ship from, and would cost me double the price in Canadian dollars, and would also cost another double the price just for the insane Brokerage fees that the shipping companies extort from people that have no other alternative but to use their BS service to move something over an invisible line... Any thoughts? Also, it's too bad Flex Seal didn't have a blue can of their product that was for this specific purpose, as if they made it work, they would have a very attractive product that I'm pretty sure nobody else has! In fact, I'll go tell them this after this posting/comment!

Good video and tutorial

Never never never cut the liner before the skimmer is installed! 😔

The openings are NIT that big on mine it took us two house of tapping in a small amount at a time to get the sand In. The holes were about the size of a standard screw.

If there are holes for letting air out, doesn't the sand escape the holes and get all in the water? Why not just fill it with water?

No pillow? Not lowering water levels?

What type of air blower is required to do this. A shop vac may not work in my pool

Sooo much easier to put cable through the holed before putting it on pool

I blew the lines through the backwash that’s how we were taught. Would that be ok?

wind clip? you mean a clamp? lol

Where's the pillow underneath

Good afternoon, I have a question hope you can help. I have an Intex sand filter and the handle does not move. The filter is only a couple of weeks old.

18ft Do a 30ft

How do you decide how much of the liner overlaps the top edge. Too little and you have wrinkles on the side walls. Too much and it stretches the liner possibly too much.

Do you cover the skimmer or not

Can you re-use the expandable Number 10 rubber plugs year after year?

Thank you so much It was very helpful.

What kind of chemicals can i use with lusters

Can I use this to hold my pool cover

I have a Betta solar robotic leaf skimmer that gathers leaves off the surface of the water. This keeps my robot from getting stuck in the skimmer on the side of the pool.

Great help thank you

The underside of my rails are not smooth.

How do you winterize the stairs with sand in them?

I don't have a wall plug close enough to my pool.😣 Would it be safe to plug the pump into an extension cord??

So happy to have found this!! Anything made/built back in the day is way better. No shortcuts. Not rushed and awesome explanation and directions!!!!

2023 UPDATE- PLEASE READ We show 2 different gaskets that can be used. Black gaskets- Place them on as shown, BUT- Do not cut the liner. After taping the gaskets in place, you may line up & attach the skimmer. Then you can cut the square hole in the liner, after the skimmers been tightened up. White butterfly gasket- if using this gasket you will need to precut the liner, as displayed above in the video.

I'm currently doing this job today and my gasket is a bit different. It doesn't appear to be the butterfly style. Any advice for me on how to properly install?

Instantly muted. Nice video otherwise.

Thank you this is great info!!

I like swim University cool 😎

To lower my pool below the jets would practically empty the whole pool.

Thanks for the help Gary just covered our pool for the winter for the first time.

Instead of wind clips I go and buy the $10 or less pack of wratchet straps and re-secure fully over tarp as well as the line through. Keeps it very snug and secure. Just be sure to use a lubricant and cover the wratchet end to make it easy in the spring and make the wratchet last for years even when left on exterior

Me gusta ay una serie del tiburón fantasma

LOL! I shoot my pump, filter, and heater with a couple of gal. RV antifreeze, and they can sit out all winter. Why take it apart, and drag it inside. It would have to get below -50 to hurt anything. Been doing it for yrs.

the great escape installers cut the opening of the skimmer part after it was completely on and tightened down so no sag can happen just in case

Install a reel for circular pool above ground. Practical use, only 1 person to manipulate and easy to get out of the way when using the pool. Check this system : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7dYzz-Pmc3A.html
