ANSWERS:
  1. What sizes are available?

    Intex distributes 12’x20’x48”, 12’x24’x48”, and 12'x28'x48" Oval Frame Pools.
  2. How much air should be used to inflate the top ring?

    Do not over inflate or use high-pressure air compressors. Inflate top ring to be slightly stiff to the touch. An over-inflated ring heated by the sun may burst or lead to leaks in the seam. Pay attention to air temperature variation! In cold weather the top ring will lose some pressure. If this occurs, DO NOT add air since the air inside will expand again once the temperature RISES. In hot weather, the air will expand. You MUST let some air out to prevent the top ring from failing due to excess internal pressure.
  3. What might be the problem when the top ring deflates one day after it has been inflated?

    When a top ring is inflated during a hot and sunny day, the air inside will contract (less pressure) when the ambient temperature drops during the evening or early morning, thus giving a false impression the top ring keeps deflating. Do not over-inflate the top ring, and make sure the air valve is firmly secure and inserted.
  4. How high can I fill the pool with water?

    To the bottom of the inflated ring. Do Not Overfill, as this may cause the pool walls to become unstable and possibly result in injury or property damage from the water flowing over the pool wall while in use.
  5. What is the approximate depth of the water?

    When filled to 80% water capacity as recommended, the pool water depth is approximately:
    12'x20'x48" = 41"
    12'x24'x48" = 41"
  6. Approximately, how many gallons of water does the pool hold?

    When filled to 80% water capacity, as recommended, the pool holds approximately:
    12'x20'x48" = 4,393 gal
    12'x24'x48" = 5,407 gal
