The best Intex: Reddit reviews

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I have this skimmer and I just attached it to my existing system. I have a BestWay pool with two pool outlets. One gets used on the skimmer and the other one is just a regular strainer outlet. Does your pool not have two outlets?

I would imagine you'd be fine on circulation if doing the wall-mounted skimmer on a single outlet. In fact, it'll probably be more effective than the dual outlet setups as most of those (including mine until I upgraded to a bigger pump) usually require a flow reducer on the non-skimmer attached outlet. I don't think you'd have the need to run a separate pump just for a skimmer.

I’m a novice to owning a pool but I have about the same size as yours. We shock ours once weekly and have a chlorine float that we put one tablet in, that usually lasts us a little over a week. I was having some issues getting my chlorine levels in the ideal range in the beginning until I added a double dose of the recommended shock. Now it seems to be doing pretty well. We use one of those chemistry kit looking tests for our chlorine levels and I just purchased a skimmer to help cut down on the debris that sink to the bottom but I’m still waiting on delivery.

This is the same as the intex pool scimmer, bot for open water. https://www.amazon.ca/Intex-Deluxe-Mount-Surface-Skimmer/dp/B00178IMPO/ref=asc_df_B00178IMPO/?tag=googlemobshop-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=293033937262&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4283539969064726753&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&a...

Yeah, I see what you mean. This Is the exact one we bought on Amazon for $12 last year but it doesn’t seem to be available :(

I bought two of these Intex LED Pool Wall Light, 110-120V, last year off amazon for my intex 16x32.

They are magnetic with a transformer, so you place the light that doesn't have any cords on it inside the pool and while holding it, place the magnet side with the cord on the outside of the pool. Plug in the lights - works great and very bright!
