    Is 2.5 inches off level too much for an Intex Ultra frame pool 16 by 48
    I brought in sand and leveled it all day and used a 2 by 4 and level like the video's showed. It was level until I put up the pool. Some of the legs on the high water side sunk into the sand and I guess the sand must of settled. I measure both sides and it off 2.5 inches in a small area but 2 inches mostly. Can I get away with it for this year. I thought about taking it down and starting over, but that would be another week with out the pool. My 11 year old daughter had hissy. Do I need to lose any more sleep over this.

    I have same pool and about the same water difference, how did it turn out for you? Did you drain it or letting it be?

    No sleep loss, swim away. Keep the water a little lower on the low side so it won't slop over.

    Yea it varies all way around from one post is 40.5" at lowest and 43" at highest but 41.5- 42"mostly everywhere else. I just read so many negative post an then saw yours and it was like reading my mind. If yours lasted all season fine I think I will watch it and see if the level changes
