- Type: Above Ground Pool, Rectangular Frame Pool.
- Material: The liner is made of a material that can be damaged by aggressive grasses growing through it, suggesting a durable but not impenetrable material. The frame consists of metal beams and U-shaped side supports.
- Assembly Time: Estimated 60-90 minutes for pool assembly (excluding filter pump). A team of 2-4 people is recommended for setup. No tools are required for assembly.
- Ground Requirements: Must be set up on absolutely flat, level, and compacted ground. Not suitable for slopes, mud, sand, soft/loose soil, decks, balconies, or platforms. Support pads (15" x 15" x 1.2" pressure-treated wood, steel pads, or reinforced concrete slabs) are required under each U-shaped support if the ground is not concrete.
- Clearance: Requires at least 5-6 feet (1.5-2.0 m) of space around the pool from any obstacles.
- Drainage: Equipped with drain valves in two corners for water disposal.
- Warranty: Ultra XTR™ Pool Liner and Frame Warranty – 2 Years; Prism Frame™ Pool Liner and Frame Warranty – 1 Year.
Usage Features:
- Safety: Continuous and competent adult supervision is required. A safety barrier is recommended to prevent unauthorized access. Never dive, jump, or slide into the pool. Do not lean, straddle, or exert pressure on the top rim. Keep rescue equipment and emergency numbers nearby. Pool floor must be visible at all times. Use proper artificial lighting for night swimming. Keep children away from pool covers.
- Setup: The liner should be spread out with the drain valve towards the draining area and hose connectors towards the electrical power source for the optional filter pump. Horizontal beams should be sprinkled with talcum powder before sliding into the liner sleeves to facilitate disassembly. U-shaped side supports have double button spring-loaded clips for secure attachment to the beams. Connecting rods are used to link liner straps to restrainer straps. The pool walls are designed to lean inward when filled, which is normal to accommodate water movement and pressure.
- Filling: Fill the pool with no more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water initially to check for levelness and smooth out wrinkles. If not level, drain and re-level the area. Fill up to just below the sleeve line.
- Maintenance: Requires regular water treatment with chlorine, algaecide, and pH balancing. Daily pH checking is crucial. Filter pump operation is necessary for at least one complete water turnover per day.
- Storage: Empty completely when not in use for a longer period. Store in a dry, temperature-controlled location (32°F/0°C to 104°F/40°C). Air dry the liner completely before folding and sprinkle talcum powder to prevent sticking. The original packing can be used for storage.
Maintenance Features:
- Water Quality: Regular chemical treatment (chlorine, algaecide) and pH balancing are essential. Consult a pool supply dealer for proper chemical use. Do not add chemicals while the pool is occupied.
- Cleaning: Keep the pool clean and clear. The filter pump (if purchased) will aid in this.
- Liner Care: Avoid aggressive grasses growing through the liner. Concentrated chlorine solutions may damage the liner.
- Drainage: Drain rainwater immediately if the water level exceeds the maximum. Use the drain valves in the corners with a garden hose for controlled drainage.
- Winterization: Completely drain the pool, disconnect all hoses and the filter pump, remove the filter cartridge, and clean all parts. Air dry thoroughly. Apply petroleum jelly to seals and O-rings to preserve resilience. Store in a dry, temperature-controlled environment.
Intex Cartridge Filter Unit (Models 604G & 638G)
Function Description:
This is a Krystal Clear™ Filter Pump designed to circulate and filter pool water, removing impurities and helping to maintain water clarity and hygiene. It is intended for use with storable above-ground pools.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Models: 604G (5 A) and 638G (8 A).
- Electrical: 12 V~, 50 Hz.
- Max Head (Hmax): 1.0 m.
- Min Head (Hmin): 0.19 m.
- Ingress Protection: IPX7.
- Max Water Temperature: 35 °C.
- Filter Medium: Synthetic cartridge #29000.
- Transformer: Included. Must be connected to a grounding type receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or residual current device (RCD).
- Mounting: Three mounting holes on the base for stationary mounting. For model 604G, holes form a triangle with 135mm sides. For model 638G, holes form a triangle with 145mm sides. Holes are slotted with 7mm width. Total assembly must exceed 18kg for stability.
- Warranty: Krystal Clear™ Filter-Pump Warranty – 2 Years; Hoses & Fittings Warranty – 180 days.
Usage Features:
- Safety: Always supervise children and disabled individuals. Keep children away from the product and electrical cords. Assembly and disassembly by adults only. Risk of electric shock; connect only to a GFCI/RCD protected outlet. Unplug the transformer before any maintenance. Do not bury the electrical cord. Do not use extension cords, timers, plug adapters, or converter plugs. Keep the transformer more than 3.5m away from the pump and 4.0m away from the plug. Position the pump away from the pool to prevent children from climbing on it. Do not operate when the pool is occupied.
- Setup: The air release valve (1) must be open during initial setup to prevent air trapping. Assemble the above-ground pool first. Place the filter pump a hose length away from the lower black protruding hose connection on the pool wall. Connect nozzle union (14 & 10) and pool inlet air adaptor (16) to the upper connection, and strainer union (9 & 11) to the lower connection. Secure hoses (8) with clamps (7) to the pump connections and pool inlet air adaptor. Ensure the air jet valve (15) is securely tightened and facing up. Fill the pool 1-2 inches above the top connection; water will automatically flow into the pump. Screw in the air release valve when water starts flowing out of its hole. Connect the pump power cord to the transformer output and plug the transformer into a properly installed electrical socket.
- Operation: Operate until desired water clarity is obtained. Never put pool chemicals directly into the filter pump.
- Troubleshooting: A troubleshooting guide is provided for common issues like pump not starting, poor flow, and leaks.
Maintenance Features:
- Filter Cartridge Replacement: Recommended every 2 weeks, or when clogging is observed. Only use original Intex cartridges.
- Cleaning: The filter cartridge can be cleaned with a water hose spray.
- Winterization/Storage: Before long-term storage, drain the pool and disconnect all hoses and the filter pump. Remove and clean the filter cartridge. Remove nozzle and strainer unions, inserting wall plugs into hose connections. Drain water from the filter pump housing. Air dry all components thoroughly. Apply petroleum jelly to seals (4), air release valve O-ring (2), and hose seals (6) to maintain resilience. Store in a dry, temperature-controlled location (0°C to 40°C).
