Setup Instructions

Setting up your Intex Ultra XTR Frame Pool is designed to be straightforward, typically taking about 90 minutes to be ready for water. It is recommended to have at least two adults for assembly.

1. Site Preparation

• Choose a flat, level area free of sharp objects, debris, and excessive slopes.
• Ensure the ground is firm and can support the weight of the filled pool (approximately 14,364 gallons of water).
• Lay down the included ground cover to protect the pool liner from punctures and abrasions.

2. Frame Assembly

• Unpack all frame components and organize them according to the instruction manual.
• Assemble the galvanized steel frame using the Easy-Lock System. The composite T-joints snap together without the need for additional tools.
• Ensure all connections are secure and the frame is properly aligned before proceeding.

3. Liner Installation

• Carefully spread the 3-ply PVC liner within the assembled frame, ensuring it is centered and smooth.
• Connect the liner to the frame according to the detailed instructions provided in your manual.

4. Pump and Accessory Connection

• Connect the Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump SX2800 to the designated inlet and outlet ports on the pool liner. Follow the pump's specific setup instructions for hose connections and sand filling.
• Assemble and attach the removable ladder securely to the pool frame.
• Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.

For detailed step-by-step instructions, always refer to the comprehensive manual included with your pool set.

Operating the Sand Filter Pump

The Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump SX2800 is designed for efficient water filtration and circulation. It features 6 functions controlled by a multi-port valve:

• Filtration: Standard operation for continuous water cleaning.
• Backwash: Reverses water flow to clean the sand filter bed. Perform regularly to maintain filtration efficiency.
• Rinse: Used after backwashing to settle the sand and flush out any remaining debris before returning to filtration.
• Recirculate: Circulates water without passing it through the filter, useful for mixing chemicals.
• Drain: Drains water directly from the pool, bypassing the filter.
• Close System: Shuts off all flow to the filter, typically used for maintenance or when the pool is not in use.

The pump has a flow rate of 2800 GPH (Gallons Per Hour), ensuring rapid and effective water turnover for your pool's volume.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your pool water clean and extending the life of your pool and equipment.

Pool Water Care

• Chemical Balance: Regularly test and adjust water chemistry (pH, chlorine, alkalinity, etc.) to ensure safe and clear water.
• Filtration: Operate the sand filter pump daily for several hours to circulate and filter the entire volume of pool water.
• Backwashing: Perform backwashing on the sand filter pump when the pressure gauge indicates a higher than normal reading or when water flow decreases. Sand in the filter typically lasts up to 5 years with regular backwashing.

Cleaning with Deluxe Pool Maintenance Kit

The included Deluxe Pool Maintenance Kit helps keep your pool free of debris:

• 110in Telescoping Aluminum Pole: For extended reach during cleaning.
• 24ft 7in Hose with Connector for Filter: Connects to the filter pump for vacuuming.
• Deluxe Vacuum Head: Comes with 2 nozzles and 1 scrubber for effective debris removal from the pool floor.
• Leaf Rake Head with Deep Skimmer Net: For skimming leaves and larger debris from the water surface.
• Curved Wall Brush Head: For scrubbing pool walls and preventing algae buildup.
