Don’t let the convenience or its potentially temporary installation fool you. Intex pools have all the same needs as the fanciest “cement pond.” Regular pool cleaning and maintenance will help keep your Intex pool and EasySet above ground pool in prime condition.

Dirt is gon na get into your Intex pool, no matter what, but your pool is like every other pool out there, every other above ground pool. It is no different., But because you have a smaller Intex or EasySet pool. You have a few more options at your disposal.. Let's dive, in.
All right, quick disclaimer.. I wan na talk about the term Intex pools. Intex is a brand name. They go by many names.
These pools. There's Intex, there's EasySet, there's quick set up there's blow up pools. They are all the same: thing. They're small above ground pools that you can quickly set up and break down if you need to every year.
And if I missed anything in this video, just please leave a comment. I'll be happy to get to it., And also just because we're gon na talk about pool care. Everyone's got a different opinion on how to take care of your pool, and all of them are their own way. Just follow somebody.
You trust., If you trust us at Swim University. This is just how we do it.. So, let's get into it.. Okay, the easiest way to get dirt out of your Intex pool is to use a skimmer net., It's a flat net that you can use to skim.
The surface of the pool - and you can also get debris off the bottom of your pool., If you're very diligent, you can keep the bottom and top of your pool free of debris. If you just go out there like every day every other day and just do a quick skim, a skim on the bottom., It's really all you need to do., Because your pool is smaller than a giant above ground pool it won't take as long.. You should brush your swimming pool, just as often as you brush your teeth, and I hope that you brush your teeth every day and I guess, with a swimming pool, you don't have to brush every day, maybe every other day and get that debris off the sides Off your ladder off the bottom and it'll just be a lot easier in the long run. You won't have any gunk or any like algae growth happening in these little.
You know crevices around the pool, if you just give it a nice brushing, and you can do that, while you skim. The third thing you could do is you could hook up an actual manual vacuum. If you have an Intex pool, they actually sell these vacuums. For your pool., They hook up to your filter system and they create a suction using the pump and the filter..
It's a vacuum head and a pole.. You can just push that along the bottom of the pool and it'll suck up all the debris into your filter. System., If you have one of these quick set pools chances are you you can get a tiny little vacuum that can help clear up that debris. And then finally - and I think the best thing you could do is you can actually get a robotic pool cleaner.
Now, If you're familiar with like above ground, pools traditional above ground, pools or in ground pools, they make these robots that actually go along the bottom of the pool and the sides of the pool.. But in your case you don't need that. That's overkill.! You can use something called a Pool Blaster, which is essentially like a dust buster.. You know those dust busters from the 70s. It's like that. It's battery operated. You can attach it to a pole and it's all self contained.. You can just go down to the bottom of your pool and you can use a Pool Blaster or basically a pool dust buster and because you have a smaller pool.
This is such a great option for you.. You can vacuum the ladders, you can vacuum anywhere. You want to., I highly recommend that you invest in one of these.. It is gon na change your life, if you don't already have one..
So to recap: you got ta skim, the pool you can skim the top. You can skim the bottom. You should brush your pool again every other day for both of those. Brush any crevices and just get debris out of there out into the open.
So it doesn't fester.. You can use a pool vacuum, a manual pool vacuum which uses the power and the suction of your pump and filter to lift debris off the ground.. It's made by any one of the manufacturers that your pool actually is. Or the one that I highly recommend is getting a Pool Blaster, which is basically a pool dust.
Buster battery operated self contained.. You can put it on a pole, that's the best option for you.. So, thank you very much for watching. Real quick before we go got ta.
Do a quick plug for that's how we keep the lights on here at Swim, University., A quick plug for our pool care video course and illustrated e-book called the Pool Care Handbook.. You can get it for watching this video. You can get it for ten percent off by using the promo code. Video at checkout.

How do you clean an intex 8×32 Pool without a filter? Are you in Barrhaven ?
Great video!…..but any ideas on cleaning the OUTSIDE of an Intex pool? Thanks!
My local Canadian Tire sells an 8' pool but it has no ports for a pump, nor does it come with any pump. It does have a drain which can take a garden hose apparently. So is it just a bad choice even for a cheap pool? Do I need to get one with a pump and all the chemicals?
Do you recommend cutting any trees around the pool?
How do clean the outside of the pool
I wanna use less harsh chemicals . There’s this product called ECOONE. Make a video how to use their products .
Easy set goes by Intex, quick set goes by bestway. So what you named are all the models. Above ground pool brands are Intex, Coleman, Bestway, SummerWaves, Summer Escapes. Service area Kanata??
What about if the linear smells what can i use to clean it?
So I built a pool. The liner is an actual pool liner. But I do not have a filter or any type of pump connected to the pool. How would I go about keeping it clean?
Had set up a Intex pool back in April. Come end of June, a huge African dust storm rolled in and the water got kind of a greenish yellow tone to it that I thought was dust collected in the water. As I'm getting ready to deal w it… My wife went into labor. Turns out it was algae….algae that went without being addressed for about 3 weeks as we settled into new parent life. Lemme tell you… Cleaning an unchecked algae bloom of 3 weeks.. Not fun.
I have a surface skimmer that sometimes breaks off. I fix that by screwing the nuts the hold the net when all the net is firmly inside.
I have my pool on a patterned concrete floor. Tell me about all that dirt and stuff man that builds up in the creases.
Hi, was looking into a pool blaster. Will it pick up alge without spreading it back into the pool?
I'm wondering about the vinyl ring on top. My pool is 5 yrs old and the ring is drying out and seems to be losing air
Can i use shock without the filter ? I got small pool
We added a salt water system to our pool… makes cleaning so easy! However my question is how do we clean up the inflated top ring. It has a gunky film that I can't seem to get off with my usual cleaning solutions… is there a simple rubber cleaner I can use?
shut the hell up
For a 12*36 pool do I actually need a pump?
Mine came with only the pool and nothing else
I have been loving your channel! We got a summer waves metal frame pool last season and have used your channel to help us clean the pool after opening so it’s swimmable ( getting rid of water boatmen in the process🤢 ) and set up our brand new sand filter. the way we usually clean the pool is for big jobs we hook up a manual vacuum to the filter pump to get good suction. For the small once a week maintenance we use a “pool dust buster” as you call it. Great tool if you keep up with the vacuuming. Pain in the butt if the job is any bigger! Thanks for all the tips I will continue to watch this channel for any pool questions I may come across Service area Barrhaven??
i just bought my first 8 ×30 intex pool i don't have it set up yet because I want to learn the best way to keep it safe and clean for the kiddos & without having to empty the water….these videos help a lot
i would appreciate some tips from everyone as well thanks Are you in Orleans ?
Thanks for the help
I've heard about upgrading the 10ft summer waves type d pump to at least 1000gph, but I have no clue how to go about this. What do I need to know sizing wise to make sure it fits my hoses? Or would adapters be easier? I'm very new to the pool care world despite enjoying them all in my youth. Thanks!
I’ve added “pH Up” to increase alkalinity. How long do I wait to shock? 1485 gallons.
Will a Pool Blaster be able to pick up mustard algae? Thanks for your videos! I've learned so much from them including that we have mustard algae 🤦🏼♀️ I think I've got it killed just trying to vacuum it out and had no luck hooking up the manual hose and vacuum to our Summer Waves pool.
I paid $80 for the pool and a blaster is $250.00. Is there a reasonable way to get the white cloudy stuff out from the bottom?
I don’t know. Some of these pools are pretty big. You can get them up to 32 ft long or 26 ft round. Mine is 22, which is a pretty normal size pool
How can I get the water from getting cloudy? Or how to clean it without draining the pool? Service area Nepean??
where can i buy a cheap pool blaster? Service area Orleans??
Bro, I just ordered my first above ground easy intex. I’m not looking to F it up. Has to be legit. Following your advice! Are you in Ottawa ?
I have a 550 gallon easy set pool by H2O Go. I want to know how to keep it clean and clear without having to drain and refill it everytime the kids want to play in it. I paid $50 for the pool at the Dollar General, do I need a pump?? It would cost more than the pool did to buy even the smallest simplest one on the market. Is the pool blaster enough without the pump??
Can I add chlorinated Clorox pool and spa tablets for my 640 gallon blow up pool for my kids? Can I just drop 1 tablet in and change the water out like once a week?
Who has it?
Hi you mentioned the best way to clean an Intex easy set is the water blasters. I saw a diference in price between they. What are the Best in price, durability, performance and quality?
There is small dirt though and I have the vacuum left from the 15 foot we had so perfect
You should mention approximate prices and ideally some models to have clearer information of products
We have never had a pool and thinking about getting the inflatable framed pool for this summer. Your video was helpful for cleaning but will I need to add.chemicals and how often should water be changed?
I have a intex pool it’s 26ft by 52in an I use a dolphin automatic vacuum
So my friend gave me her bestway pool that she bought this year. Its laid out filter is set up ring is blown up just need to add the water. Problem is the liner is dirty. What do i need to do to get this pool clean and ready to swim in. Keep in mind i have never own a above ground pool before and only trying to spend the least amount of money.
Hi thank you for the video!! What can I use to get the ring around the pool clean? Thank you.
Get the deluxe top surface skim bucket for $23 works great with 1 thousand gallons per hour Pump
