Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose between a steel frame and an inflatable pool?
Steel frame pools like the Intex Ultra XTR are designed for semi-permanent use and offer more depth and durability. Inflatable pools are better for quick setup, smaller spaces, and younger children.
What is the benefit of a solar-powered robotic skimmer?
Devices like the Betta SE Plus use solar energy to continuously clear floating debris like leaves and pollen. This prevents debris from sinking to the bottom, reducing the workload on your main filter and vacuum.
How often should I shock my above ground pool?
We recommend using HTH Shock Ultra once a week or after heavy bather use or rain. Regular shocking keeps the water sanitary and prevents algae blooms.
Can I get pool salt and heavy chlorine buckets delivered?
Yes! Many pool chemicals are available for Same Day Delivery or Curbside Pickup. You can also have bulk pallets of Clorox Pool Salt shipped directly to your home.
Are Member's Mark pool floats suitable for the lake?
Absolutely. Many of our inflatables, including the Giant Animal Floats and Floating Pads, are made with heavy-duty materials specifically designed for both pool and open-water use.
