From a poster named Gidson sent to my e-mail address.

I just purchased a 14'X42" metal frame pool and we tried to level the pool as best we could in our small back yard. After the pool was filled most of the water went to one side. We are about 1/4 water less that does not cover the pump holes so we can't turn the pump on to get the pump to do what it is suppose to do because of the water level. Being that we spend $200 dollars on water is it possible to us to purchase a 3 ton car jack and put in under the board that we have under the pool to lean it toward where the water needs to be and then after we jack it up what can we put under it? Would sand bags be sufficient. Everything else seems to be fine and although the summer is almost over at least we can get a little use out of it. Thanks

I doubt very much that a 3 ton jacket will do anything other than break your frame. Look at this chart Pounds Grams Kilograms
Cubic cm. 0.002205 1 0.001
Cubic inch 0.036127 16.387064 0.0163871
Liter 2.204684 1000.028 1.000028

Cubic foot 62.42796 28316.847 28.316847

Just one cubic foot of water weights over 62 lbs and you have about 460 cubic feet. You are looking at over 30,000 lbs of water, it will not be moved. I am afraid there is no short cut to get this pool level without draining it.

BallengerB1 is correct 100%. Think about it, is it better to spend $200 for another truck of water, or have to buy another pool?
