As another super pregnant mama (I’m just a few weeks from my due date now!) a pool like that would be soooooo nice!!!! It will definitely help as you get bigger and baby weighs more on your back! Congratulations and prayers for a safe and happy healthy pregnancy! 🥰💕

Just drill a hole in the bottom of the lights 😬 I done it to mine because I’d got new ones, and they had holes in the bottom 😊 now they don’t fill with water 👍

The key to pool maintenance is Saltwater. Use a saltwater generator to chlorinate the pool. Sooooo much easier. Also a sand filter not that cartridge system. That size pool you would need about 80lbs of pool salt and the Intex Chlorine generator. Look into it, so much easier to keep clean and water crystal clear.

Totally go with salt if you can. Hotels & resorts use salt so it does the job. Plus it doesn’t wreck your hair like chlorine can 🙂

OK, I'll chime in . 1984, I'd been living in my new house for 3 years. It is in a small subdivision that was a cornfield. NO SHADE. I needed something. Found an old pool free if I removed. It took me about 6 hours to put everything in my puckup. Working afternoon shift I'd come home and dig until sunrise then sleep. Just befor heading into work I'd take a quick look at my effort in broad daylight. It took me 2 weeks to dig the hole and manicure the bottom and edge. I bought a 24 foot by 6 foot liner for it. So I dug 2-1/2 feet down 20 feet across and tapered the edge up to the Aluminum pool wall. I hand piled dirt up around the edge to get the height. The finished size was a full 7-1/2 feet deep across 20 feet at the bottom. I figured 20,000 gallons and it took my well 2 full days to fill. For many many years we used that pool. I took the best care using liquid chlorine and muriatic acid. I restored the otiginal diatomaceous earth filter and it worked flawlessly. I ran 10 gallons/ min thru 900 feet of Black plastic tube on the roof of my pole barn for solar heat. It provided +10°F to the temp. Research Cyanuric Acid to keep the chlorine from evaporating so quickly. A solar cover helped keep it warm. I found 85°F was my favorite temp and I maintained it pretty well. l hav a e mail at yah oo moparbens@ it . com if you'd care to converse. ben/ michigan

Pools are the best investment for fun and relaxing at home. Still trying to talk my daughter and her husband that I live with to get one so my two grand children can enjoy it as well as them. You won't be sorry.

We have the same pool, and we live in the Netherlands. It's nice to see y'all building a wall around it. We keep it as it is, while being jealous looking at your woodwork.

Get a sand filter as soon as you can afford it - they are amazing for keeping it clean.

They work amazingly. Friend of mine, her pool was always dirty. As soon as she could afford it, she bit the bullet and bought the sand filter. That pool was never dirty again. They are expensive tho, even the cheaper ones, but if your going to go ahead and buy one don't get the cheapest one.

Putting a corner tarp or an umbrella somewhere so you can always choose to get out of the Sun but still be in the water that's called having your cake and eating it too 2😅❤

Congrats on your new addition!! Please be careful lifting heavy things. I did the same with my first and ended up in hospital.

Although I saw the heavy lifting and was reminded of myself when pregnant - demolished a hut and green house alone and loaded them up and took them to the council tip and I think all that moving around was probably good for me when pregnant.

We just put foam on top of our level ground and it works wonderfully!

We had that pool turned into a salt water pool and bought a bigger pump. Built a deck all the way around it. We loved the whole area so much. Pool lasted for years the deck not so much. We were out every day all summer long. I guess around 10 years of use.

Great to see you back on my feed. What a fun way to catch up with you both. Congratulations on becoming soon to be parents.

You are going to love having that thing. There's nothing like getting in at the end of a long, hot work day and cooling off. I'm working in my garage and taking a break to watch, and then I will jump into our pool to cook off too.

We had 10 grand kids in ours every year! It is an awesome pool for the money

Congratulations on the baby.

That was a lot of fun hehehe! The joy it brings to preggy Molly. Lovely to watch 😍

We also have this kind of pool. We were thinking about getting a pool, and I first thought about something really solid, rather big, with stairs into the pool, with a roof on top. I found a website with a configurator and ended up with a price tag of 30000+€😑 So we got this type of pool. Much cheaper, but does the job. If it lasts five years, then it really wasn't expensive. I got a pool cleaning robot, very convenient. The robot is just dropped in the pool, and runs for about an hour. If the battery is drained, it stops at a wall for easy pickup.

You go girl❣️. I can hardly wait to see you floating in the pool with a cool drink! 😎🇨🇦

Can’t wait to see the finish!!

Great pool project and video. I'm so envious, it costs me $90/month to use only 3,000 gallons of water for 2 people, this would cost me about $60 to fill. Wells are definitely the way to go. Water is all around us, there is no scarcity, there is only control.

Man, that was a lot of work! Good for you guys

A friend of mine just got a pool like this and invested a little bit more on one of them salt water filters. It sounds like a good alternative.

8:00 I own that same compactor and I love it. It’s easy to use, it’s not too heavy, it’s easy to move.

Easiest way to do that kind of staining is to buy a cheap pump up garden spayer - put the stain in - pump it up and Bob's your uncle. They're cheap enough to you don't even have to clean the up after you done. Just throw them away . . .

To keep the pool clean, make it slightly brackish, and siphon vacuum the dirt off the bottom once or twice a week. It's better for your health too cuz chlorine is a carcinogen. To make it brackish you can just float a cattle salt lick in it every once in a while. Just keep it brackish enough so you don't see algae growing in it.

My thoughts exactly. I have bought an eight foot 14.98 Walmart pool every year for thirty plus years and throw them away at end of every summer. Just enough to sit in and get cool while I garden in the hot sun.

I'd like to put up a nice, small cooling pool on my property.. But the maintenance would be a pita for me and.. I get bears, deer, etc often in my yard and I know they'd definitely wreck it quick.. especially the bears. And I'm positive the birds would be enjoying it too. Had a neighbor where I used to live who constantly had ducks and geese fully enjoying his pool.

Just an adorable couple! Great editing!

You two are a great team! 🤙

They do sell padding for under the pool to not only protect the liner but stop creatures from burrowing

Warms my heart to see individuals taking responsibility and improving what they can. As opposed to crying and demanding that someone else change their life.

Responsibility? Huh? Don’t get it. It’s a cheap plastic pool.

I built a wooden frame around basically the same pool. add 3in of foam board insulation under and around it, and a heater from inflatable hot tub

Draining & Heating A Pool: I had an in-ground pool to empty out for repairs and paint, and later to heat up quickly for a child's 4th birthday party. I bought a submersible pump from Harbor Freight and ran garden hose from it out away from the house. After completing the repair and painting, I filled the pool and needed to heat it faster than just waiting on the Sun. I bought a roll of black plastic irrigation tubing. With the pump at the deep point of the pool and the tubing laid out around the concrete pool deck, I started the water recirculating five days before the party. That deep pool (9 feet at the deep end) was quite comfortably warm the morning of the party and all I had to do was remove the pump, coil up the tubing and put it all away. Total cost was under $75 in 2004.

You two are adorable…so fun to watch!!

We put heavy duty rubber under ours which we had to place over stones. Worked a treat.

Would look awsome if you put some decking steps around the front sides and corner and some decking from the back corner up to both sides of the fence with some room for sitting in deck chairs, to cover all it in.

Great video as always, that pool is going to be so nice on those hot days enjoy

OK, I'm 40 seconds in...... and I haven't checked in with you guys in quite a while...... so you just brew my mind!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! You guys are going to be epic parents!! 😊 xXx

I had a neighbor who put in a pool like that and eventually regretted not putting it on a cement or hard flat surface. What happened is over time stepping in it left imprints of feet, which filled with dirt. And cleaning that was either a nightmare or impossible.

We had a pool in the Florida panhandle a bunch of years ago, one thing I struggled to do was keep the water cool in all that sun. I hope you enjoy it for years to come and please remember safety for that baby after turning into a toddler!

Keep your gallon milk jugs, fill with water, and freeze. Throw them in when it gets too hot. When they thaw, throw them back in the freezer. Obviously, plastic jugs are reusable. It works great! I think I used 4 or 5 jugs.

Please consider a salt water system. Less expensive in the long run, healthier for you since it only uses salt instead of chlorine and other chemicals, stays cleaner. When we had a pool, it was the best decision we ever made.

You could attach some solar lights to the top of your fence for a romantic vibe.❤

I know if feels good to get stuff done, but be careful with the lifting, pushing and big stuff. Take it easy ❤️

I do pray that you all called the water company to let them know that you were filling a pool up. They do say there is a rate for it.

The way busted out laughing.... well im go geab a snack.😂😂😂❤

First video I have seen of yours. I liked it & now a subscriber.

Ya'll need to put some type of shade cover over it. The water will really turn warm.

Pure physics. 1) The depth of the pool isn't much so the pressure is low. 2) The hose is small diameter and long. Both cause resistance to flow. Combine low pressure with high resistance and you get a LONG time for the water to just trickle out.

Good to know! We bought a pump and it got the water out in no time🤗

We have weeds in Texas known as nut grass. They will grow right up underneath your pool lining and poke a hole right through it. I know this from personal experience.

I have a intex pool. Do yourself a favor and get a bigger pump. At least a 3/4 horse which is like 3000 gph. It's over kill but worth it

Using the wrong weed barrier can end up being a bigger pain than having none at all. Weeds will put roots down into the porous type of weed barrier and the weeds will become locked into place. Solid plastic sheet or nothing.

183K subscribers, plus 1 love that stain color. could hardly tell that you even moved the pool lol. you should get a bigger pool. {you will one day} and invest in a bigger, sand pool pump. enjoy..

I have the same pool and we use the water filter pump to drain my pool. In a few hours

Nice.

I think moving the rock was silly. Foamboard is what the kids use these days. Easy to level and inexpensive, and will be great soft floor under pool

I hope you got a good pool cover to keep the water temperature controlled.

Smart move buying rather than renting

Rectangle pool is the only way to go minimum 52 inch though and its way easier to clean and swim in.

Make it a salt water pool, the salt is very affordable and you just need a chlorine maker to convert the salt to chlorine.

Nice

I don't recommend drinking anything other than water while in the pool. If you spill anything it will cause mould to start growing. Of which the only cure is to drain, scrub, and rinse. One or two drinks might not be an issue, but a pool party can turn into a nightmare days later. Especially if people were drinking beer.

Can you tell me what type of wood is the fence and what color and brand stain you used please?

I would get truck full sand and lay sand over it then put pool on it
