Artificial ponds in the yard successfully replace a pond or river. However, setting up such a vacation spot is labor-intensive and expensive. It’s easier to install a pool during the summer season. Manufacturers offer a huge selection of inflatable, frame, collapsible and other hot tubs. Recently, Intex swimming pools are in great demand, characterized by their mobility, ease of assembly, and attractive design.
Intex company and its range
The Intex company is one of the world leaders engaged in the production of items made from PVC materials for outdoor activities. The latest technologies developed have made it possible to achieve high quality products while maintaining an affordable cost. After appearing on the domestic market, Intech inflatable and frame pools immediately gained popularity among summer residents, as well as owners of private houses.
The range of the Intex company is huge. The manufacturer offers unusual square, oval and other shaped pools. All baths are divided into two groups: family and children. Among ordinary summer residents, the classic round or rectangular Intex pool, covered with an awning, is more often in demand.
Dimensions and their designation
The manufacturer has tried to create a model range that includes a wide variety of hot tubs, differing not only in shape, but also in size. The dimensions are indicated on the packaging. Depending on the shape of the bowl, a certain number of values are displayed:
- Intex rectangular and oval shaped bathtubs are marked with three numbers indicating width, length, depth;
- Intex round bowls display two numbers – diameter and height.
According to the specified dimensions, the buyer determines whether the font will fit on the site.
The most inconvenient shape for a small area is considered to be a round font. The pool occupies a vast area. Such models are best suited for installation in the garden, lawn and other places where there is a lot of free space.
Frame type bathtubs
Of particular interest for country holidays is the Intex frame-type swimming pool. The model range includes a wide variety of bowls, differing in size and shape. The common design element of all Intex hot tubs is the frame. The supporting base is made of a thin-walled metal pipe coated with an anti-corrosion decorative layer. The frame of the font consists of support posts, as well as the upper edging of the side. Maximum assembly time is approximately 45 minutes. The Intex pool frame is designed to withstand the high water pressure of a full bowl and the weight of people swimming.
There are different reviews about Intex frame pools, but the most positive emotions are caused by the font model No. 54946. Users note the convenient size of the bowl - 457x122 cm and the affordable price. A round font is most often chosen for dachas.The manufacturer Intex has equipped the product with a filter with a paper cartridge for water purification, as well as a protective PVC lining under the bottom. A 1.22 m long ladder is supplied with the bowl. The stepladder is leaned against and fixed to the top of the side.
To make the bowl, a three-layer reinforced PVC material produced using Super-tough technology was used. The bright color of the Intex bowl does not fade under the sun and is resistant to light mechanical stress and abrasion.
Ultra Frame Models
The Ultra line of frame pools differs from budget Intex models by improved technical characteristics:
- reinforcement of the metal frame of the font is made through the use of an oval-section pipe;
- anti-corrosion coating of steel elements is made using new technology using powder spraying;
- Ultra pools use fade-resistant paints;
- The manufacturer equips Intex hot tubs with a sand filter.
Ultra Frame Pools models are preferred if the bowl is purchased for group bathing.
Installing an Intex frame pool will not take much time and consists of the following steps:
- For the Intex pool, choose a free place with flat terrain and no trees;
- the area is cleared of stones, branches and other hard objects that can pierce the bottom of the bowl;
- assemble and install the frame of the font;
- fix the bowl.
After assembly, the frame pool begins to be filled with water approximately 90%.
Advice! Dirty water from the pool can be used to water the garden.
Inflatable bowls Easy set
For summer fun on the water, the Intex easy set inflatable pool has been developed. The range of bathtubs for adults is available in round and oval shapes. Rectangular inflatable bowls will not withstand high water pressure. The pools are only available in small sizes for children.
The advantage of Intex inflatable pools is their affordable cost, compactness, mobility, and quick installation on any flat area. The entire procedure for assembling the font will not take more than 30 minutes. The bowl has a cone shape and is made of three-layer PVC fabric with reinforced mesh. Only the top ring of the side is inflatable. Air injection is carried out by a pump. When the bowl begins to fill with water, the inflatable ring rises along with the liquid level. Based on the amount of filling, you can adjust the height of the side of the Intex font, since it rises along with the ring.

Children's lineup
Swimming pools for children from the manufacturer Intex are distinguished by unusual shapes, bright colors, and additional elements. In fact, this is a real gaming complex that can replace a trampoline. Easy set children's inflatable pools are available in different widths, lengths and depths, which allows you to choose the optimal model for your child's age. In a long bowl, the baby can even imitate swimming under adult supervision.
Most often, parents purchase Intex play complexes equipped with figures of animals, cartoon characters, slides, waterfalls, fountains, and inflatable trees. To install an Intex inflatable pool, you only need a pump.
It is problematic to drain water from large play complexes every day. For easy cleaning, Intex offers vacuum cleaners. Additionally, heaters are sold that allow you to heat water using electricity in cool weather.
Optional equipment
To care for the pool and ensure comfortable swimming, the Intex company offers additional equipment that helps purify and heat the water:
- The Intex pool cover, made of a similar PVC material, protects water from clogging. The cover prevents dust, tree leaves and other debris from entering.
- An Intex pool vacuum cleaner will help you clean the bottom of a large bowl; it easily removes remaining sand and dirt. To perform small volumes of work, manual or semi-automatic models are purchased. It is better to entrust cleaning of large pools to a robot.
- If you plan to swim even in cold weather, buy an Intex pool heater, which allows you to warm the water to a comfortable temperature. The company offers traditional electric models, heat exchangers, as well as solar collectors.
It is also worth considering the water purification system, without which no pool would be able to function properly. The unit consists of a pump and filter. The quality of water purification depends on the filler.
For small hot tubs, a membrane cartridge with a replaceable paper filter is suitable. The system is capable of passing a small amount of water. The dirtier the liquid, the more often the cartridge will have to be replaced.
Sand filters are considered effective purifiers. The unit is capable of filtering large volumes of water for 2–3 years. After contamination, the filter filler is replaced with new sand.
