Socks work great, used them for years on my pool inlet. Lingering algae gets cleared up quickly, along with vacuuming, backwashing the filter, shock, etc. Pool is 25K gallon too and it's crystal clear.
😂 I’m thinking a sand filter is pricey to set up. That’s why I’ve never gotten one. I just keep using the pump filters like hobbit builds is using. So how much are you all in for a sand filter?
Can you please do a video showing how the pool sets on the foam board with the cutouts? I I'm getting ready to set up and 18x9 intex pool on a concrete pad and I am trying to figure out how to put some cushion under it. I'm not sure how to do the cutouts with the bracing on the concrete so I was hoping if I could visualize what you did on soil it might help me figure it out. Also, my braces are those U type braces so there's that too. Thank you. 😊
A quick run down is that I place down the pool on top of my taped foam boards. As I add water and weight starts to put pressure on the post I check to make sure they are upright and then I cut a square out of the foam, place a paver or whatever and place the post on top. If you go that route just make sure you don't puncture your liner with your cutting tool.
