Intex Metal Frame 15′ x 48″ Above Ground Pool Set with Filter Pump

Description

Product Overview

The Intex 15′ x 48″ round above‑ground swimming pool set is engineered for families who want a reliable, easy‑to‑assemble pool that delivers a full backyard water experience without the permanent installation of an in‑ground system. The robust metal frame is fabricated from corrosion‑resistant steel, providing a stable skeleton that supports the high‑density PVC walls. These walls are constructed from reinforced polyvinyl chloride, offering resistance to abrasion, impact, and UV exposure, ensuring the pool retains its vibrant blue color and structural integrity season after season.

With a capacity of 4,440 gallons, the pool can comfortably accommodate up to eight adults for swimming, playing, or relaxing. The set includes a 1,000‑GPH (gallons per hour) filter pump model 28637EG, paired with a Type A Krystal Clear cartridge filter that removes debris and maintains clear water. A sturdy ladder provides safe entry and exit, while the heavy‑duty pool cover protects the water from leaves, insects, and sunlight when the pool is not in use. Additionally, the maintenance accessory kit contains a vacuum head, surface skimmer, and a 94‑inch telescoping pole, allowing owners to keep the pool pristine with minimal effort.

All components are packaged for straightforward assembly. The frame pieces interlock with a simple bolt‑and‑nut system, and the PVC liner slots into the frame slots, reducing the need for specialized tools. The pool is designed for outdoor use on flat, level surfaces such as a backyard lawn, patio, or deck, and it can be installed on a ground cloth to protect the liner from punctures and ground moisture.

Usage

This pool is ideal for a variety of summer activities. Families can host pool parties, children can enjoy safe water play, and adults can unwind with a leisurely swim after a long day. The pool’s round shape promotes even water circulation, which works in harmony with the filter pump to keep the water clear and balanced. Because the pool is above ground, it can be set up in most residential yards, provided there is sufficient space and the ground is level. Homeowners should verify local HOA regulations before installation, as some communities restrict the placement of above‑ground pools.

Beyond recreational use, the pool can serve as a convenient space for water‑based exercise, such as low‑impact aerobics, water jogging, or therapeutic hydrotherapy for seniors. The included ladder and sturdy frame ensure safe access, while the cover helps maintain temperature and reduces evaporation, saving water and energy. The maintenance kit simplifies routine cleaning: the vacuum head removes settled debris from the pool floor, the skimmer captures floating particles, and the telescoping pole reaches all areas without the need for additional equipment.

FAQ

What is the recommended surface for installing the pool?

The pool should be placed on a flat, level surface such as a lawn, patio, or deck. Using the included ground cloth underneath the liner helps protect against punctures and provides a smoother base for the frame.

How often should the filter cartridge be cleaned?

For optimal water clarity, clean the cartridge filter at least once a week during regular use. If the pool experiences heavy debris or after a large gathering, cleaning may be needed more frequently.

Can the pool be used in colder climates?

While the pool is designed for warm‑weather enjoyment, it can be drained and stored during winter months. Ensure the water is fully drained, the frame is disassembled, and all components are kept in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from freezing temperatures.

Is the ladder safe for children?

Yes, the ladder is constructed from sturdy metal with wide, slip‑resistant steps. However, adult supervision is always recommended for young children to ensure safe entry and exit from the pool.

What maintenance is required to keep the pool in good condition?

Regularly skim the surface to remove leaves and debris, clean the filter cartridge weekly, and use the vacuum head to clear any settled particles. Periodically check the frame bolts for tightness and inspect the liner for signs of wear.
