Can I use this in my 10x30 above ground intex pool? And how much do I use?

yes I use it all summer in a 15x24 above ground pool, everyone remarks how sparkling the pool is. Good product...........

I use Aqua Chem Shock xtra Blue in my vinyl lined pool and it works great. One bag treats 12,000 gallons.

Yes. You should be able to use it in your above ground pool. You will need to find out how many gallons your pool is holding to determine how much to use. One bag treats 10,000 gallons.Our pool is saltwater, so we only really use this for shock, not as a maintainer of chlorine. It works very well, and we can usually get almost a whole summer out of one box of 5.

I would think so. I the summer we use about 1/4 bag per week.... Less in the winter months. We settled on this amount by testing the chemical levels...

Yes, I have the 16ft x 36" which is a 5000 gallon pool. If it is an intex, no adapters are needed.

I have an Intex 18 x 10 oval pool and it works great. None of the adapters it came with worked with the pool, but I was able to use the adapter that came with the Intex Deluxe wall mount skimmer. However, the vacuum works best with 1500 gph pump and above. I'm now using 2500 sand and salt filter and works very good.

Yes, I have a very large above ground pool, 18 x 39, and I use the Doheny shock and chlorine tablets. You just slowly pour the shock into the skimmer basket and drop the chlorine tablets into the skimmer basket as well.

No the liner is too big for that. Use this one Intex 12-Foot by 30-Inch Metal Frame Pool Set (Discontinued by Manufacturer) It is also cheaper too. Good luck

Of course I have an in ground pool and have never had an above ground pool. So with that said I do not see why it could not be used in an above ground setting. Not much of an answer, sorry.

I have intex ultra 18 x 48 and our dave the diver works great. A family member has the rectangular pool and swears by ner ladybug! What I dont know is the difference in the 500 and 900. Also, you have to have the correct amount of hose attached. If you have too much it will just lay over and does nothing.

I need an answer to this very question as well. So far the answers seems to conflict each other. Anyone else have experience with using this on an intex metal frame pool?

Our pool wasn't that big. You might ck manufacturing suggested size pump. I can tell u that Hayward pumps r quiet & powerful. Ours works very well with our 15X22 pool. I recommend a salt water chlorinated system as well.

I used 150lbs of sand to reach the middle of the low/high markings on the inner tube (not 100lbs like the directions state). I have a 12x20 Intex Oval pool and used 120 lbs of salt. Pool has been up for 3 weeks and I have not had to add anymore salt yet, but the instructions recommend an additional 30lbs when the system reads low salt. Hope this helps.

I have it on an eighteen foot Intex above ground pool and it's on the third year and still keeps it clean. I would think it should work for you.

I used for another type of pool ( not Intex) a large tarp and I attached medium size rocks ( you can use pretty much any sort of weights for that purpose) with wire at four side of tarp in the middle and the corners I would tuck under the pool. Still you have to make sure the Intex can support this set up-mine had an inflatable rim so it worked perfectly fine.

I LOVE mine for my Intex. It's way more than you need which means the pool is effortlessly sparkling. Super easy to set up and maintain. I hardly use and chemicals.

I actually have 18x48 intex pool and it works for me. It has 50' clearance from the ground. I use the ladder that comes with the pool on the other side in the water. So this ladder's top step sits on top of the support pieces of the intex ladder. This way 2' gap is closed and they both sit on the pool wall. I also bought the widest plastic zip ties from Home Depot and secured both ladders to each other and to the pool wall. I have been using it for two pool seasons and so far so good. Also, the lock that comes with the enclosure is crap and it rusts after a few weeks. I would recommend buying a stainless steel one from hardware store.

My newer Intex pump is working better than the one that came with my 18x48 hardsided pool.As long as the fittings will match up, it is definitely worth a try..
