Eia kekahi, ʻo ka kānana one i hoʻokomo ʻia he 2,100 gph ma luna o ka awelika.
ʻOiai ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ke kumukūʻai o kēia kolamu ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe ma kēia papa inoa, manaʻo mākou ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi a me nā mea komo i ke kālā. Ua uhi pū ʻia ke kiʻi, ka liner a me ka pauma kānana e ka mea hana hana ʻelua makahiki, no laila e lōʻihi kēia wai iā ʻoe.

Aia i loko o ka pahu kahi alapiʻi loko a me kahi uhi, a me kahi dispenser kemika chlorine i hoʻopili ʻia i ka loko. Eia nō naʻe, pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻaʻole hana ʻo Bestway i kahi canopy i kūpono me kona mau loko ʻehā, no laila pono ʻoe e haʻalele i ka malu.
Nui: 24' x 12' x 52' | Kaha wai: 7,937 galani | Nā mea waiwai: kila, vinyl a me ka plastic
No ke aha ʻoe e kūʻai ai: He ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o nā koho ʻē aʻe a loaʻa i nā ʻano nui like ʻole i hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa ka mea maikaʻi loa no kou pā hale.
No ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi o nā hale kua, kahi wai inflatable e like me ka Intex Easy Set kahi koho maikaʻi loa. Hoʻonui ka loko wai ma luna o 30 mau minuke a hiki ke hoʻokipa i 8 a ʻoi aku ka poʻe.
No ka hoʻokomo ʻana i ka wai ʻauʻau, pono ʻoe i kahi pamu ea a me kahi screwdriver e hoʻokomo i ka ʻōnaehana kānana. Aia ma waho nā pahu hoʻokahe i hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokahe i ka wai e hoʻoponopono i ka hohonu e like me ka mea e pono ai. Ua hoʻolako ʻia me kahi pahu kānana pahu pahu me ka mana o 1500 galani i kēlā me kēia hola.
He triple vinyl ka lining a ʻaʻole pono e hou ʻia, akā no ka mea hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia ke apo o luna, pono ʻoe e mālama i nā holoholona mai ia mea. Pono paha ʻoe e hoʻohui i ka ea hou i kēlā me kēia manawa no ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka wai.
Aia nā loko wai ma luna aʻe me nā uhi loko, nā uhi papahele a me nā alapiʻi i hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomau iā lākou no ka lōʻihi me ke kūkulu ʻole ʻana o ka ʻōpala. Akā inā makemake ʻoe e wehe iā ia, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohui i kāu hose kīhāpai i kahi plug drain a kau i kekahi ʻaoʻao o ka hose kokoke i kahi kahawai ʻino a kokoke paha i kahi o kou pā e hiki ai ke mālama i kēlā nui o ka wai.
No ke aha ʻoe e kūʻai ai: Noho mālie nā countertops resin i ka hoʻopā ʻana, a maikaʻi nā laina overlapping no ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā decking a puni kāu loko.
ʻO ka Wilbar Weekender II puni i luna o ka ʻāina he loko wai me nā ʻaoʻao paʻakikī a me nā pā kila galvanized. Hiki iā ʻoe ke kanu hapalua i kēia loko i ka lepo (maikaʻi no ka hoʻomoe ʻana i nā pā hale) a ua uhi ʻia ka liner vinyl, kahi kūpono inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻomoe a puni.
Pono e ʻike ʻia ʻaʻohe alapiʻi a me nā uhi o nā loko o luna, akā naʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke kau i nā alapiʻi ʻaʻole ma nā ʻaoʻao, akā ma lalo. Hele mai ka Weekender II me ka pauma kānana one 45 GPM, kahi alapiʻi A-frame, a me kahi skimmer i kau ʻia ma ka paia no laila ʻaʻole pono ʻoe e kūʻai i nā mea hou aku.
No ke aha ʻoe e kūʻai ai: Ma waho aʻe o ka ʻōnaehana wai paʻakai, aia ka loko i ka uhi, nā alapiʻi, ka papahele, ka kānana one, ka pahu mālama, a me kahi pūʻulu volleyballs.
E hoʻomanaʻo: ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā kānana wai kai a me nā ʻōnaehana me nā loko nui inā hoʻoholo ʻoe e hoʻonui i ka nui i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
Inā makemake ʻoe i nā loko wai paʻakai ma mua o nā hiʻohiʻona chlorine, e noʻonoʻo i ka Intex Ultra XTR Frame me ka Pūnaehana Wai Paʻakai, kā mākou koho o nā loko wai paʻakai maikaʻi loa ma luna o ka honua. Hoʻokumu ka ʻōnaehana kai i kahi ʻauʻau palupalu no kou mau maka a me kou lauoho.
Hoʻolako ʻia ka loko Intex me kahi pā kānana one 1600 GPH. Pono ke pani ʻana i ke one i kēlā me kēia ʻelima makahiki, e mālama ana i ka manawa a me ka hoʻoikaika. Akā e hoʻomanaʻo ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia kēia ʻōnaehana kānana ma nā loko nui.
ʻO ka loko wai ma luna o ka honua, me ka nui o ka wai ma mua o nā loko ʻē aʻe, ua hana ʻia me ke kila paʻa me ka liner PVC a hiki ke hoʻokomo i nā mea ʻauʻau he 12 i ka manawa. Eia kekahi, ua hoʻohiki ka mea hana e hiki ke hoʻokomo a hoʻomākaukau i ka wai no ka wai i loko o 60 mau minuke. Hiki mai ka loko wai me nā mea a pau e pono ai ʻoe e hoʻonohonoho pono, e like me nā uhi, nā alapiʻi, nā kānana, nā pahu mālama, nā uhi papahele, a me kahi volleyball i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e pāʻani me.
E hopohopo no ka paʻakai? ʻO nā loko wai paʻakai he hoʻokahi hapaʻumi o ka paʻakai e like me ka wai kai, no laila ʻaʻole pono ʻoe e ʻono, honi, a manaʻo paha ʻoe aia ma kahakai.
Inā ʻoe e ʻimi nei i kahi wai ʻauʻau ma luna aʻe o ka lōʻihi a me ke kumukūʻai, hāʻawi ka Bestway Steel Pro Max Frame Pool Set i kahi lumi kūpono a hiki i ʻewalu mau ʻauʻau kai ma ke kumu kūʻai. Hele mai ka loko 18ft me kahi alapiʻi, ka paila kānana pahu a me ka uhi wai no laila ʻaʻole pono ʻoe e hoʻolilo i ke kālā keu e hoʻolako i kāu loko me kēia mau mea. Eia kekahi, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o nā koho ʻē aʻe.
ʻAʻole pono nā mea hana e hōʻuluʻulu i kēia loko wai ma luna. Hoʻopili ʻia nā paipu kila me nā pine i hoʻokomo ʻia e hana i ke kiʻi a paʻa pono nā kākoʻo ʻaoʻao i ke kiʻi. Hoʻopili mua ʻia nā paipu frame ma luna o ka liner a laila hoʻopili ʻia, e mālama ai i ka lewa. Eia kekahi, ua hana ʻia ka lining mai ka vinyl 3-ply no ka hoʻohui ʻana i ka lōʻihi e kūʻē i nā haki a me nā punctures.
He 1500 mau galani ka pahu kānana pahu pahu i kēlā me kēia hola a hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia ma hope o ka pīpī ʻana i ka pahu pahu me kahi hose. Eia nō naʻe, pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia e ʻōlelo mau ka mea hana e hoʻololi mau i nā pahu pahu, no laila pono ʻoe e uku hou no nā mea hou.
No ke aha ʻoe e kiʻi ai: ʻO ka hohonu pāpaʻu a me nā pā paʻa e lilo ia i mea palekana no nā ʻohana me nā keiki liʻiliʻi.
He 30 ″ nā paia kiʻekiʻe o ka loko Intex metala, e hāʻawi ana i kahi hohonu ʻoluʻolu no nā keiki e aʻo nei e ʻauʻau ma o lākou iho. Wahi a ka CDC, ʻo ke kiʻekiʻe o ke keiki 3 makahiki he 37 iniha, no laila ma ka hohonu ma lalo o 30 iniha, hiki i kāu keiki ke hiki i lalo me ka ʻole o ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i ko lākou poʻo e mālama i ko lākou poʻo ma luna o ka wai. Eia nō naʻe, pono e mālama mau ʻia nā keiki e ke kanaka makua i ka wā e hoʻohana ai i ka loko.
ʻO ke anawaena he 12 kapuaʻi ka laulā e hiki ai i nā keiki ke lawe i kekahi mau paʻi me ka ʻike ʻole o ka mamao. Eia hou, ua kūpono nā pā ikaika no ka'ōwiliʻana me ka haʻaluluʻole i ka waiʻauʻau, kahi e palekana ai nā keiki.
Ua uhi ʻia ke kiʻi metala e pale aku i ka ʻōpala, ʻoiai ua uhi ʻia ka loko i ka vinyl 3-ply no ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka lōʻihi. Paheʻe nā ʻāpana kiʻi a hui pū me nā pine i hoʻohui ʻia no ka hui maʻalahi, a hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā wāwae i loko o nā kaula e hoʻopaʻa pololei iā lākou ma mua o ke kū ʻana i kahi kihi hiki iā ʻoe ke hele.
Aia i loko o kēia loko ka pahu kānana pahu pahu 530 GPH a kūpono pū me nā ʻōnaehana wai kai Intex. E hoʻomanaʻo naʻe, ʻaʻohe alapiʻi i hoʻokomo ʻia, no laila pono ʻoe e kūʻai i kahi kaʻawale.
No ke aha ʻoe e kūʻai ai: ʻO kēia paka wai inflatable he mau paheʻe, kahi ala keʻakeʻa, a me kahi pāʻani heihei relay e hiki ke hoʻokipa i nā keiki he nui i ka manawa hoʻokahi.
Inā makemake ʻoe e leʻaleʻa a hauʻoli kāu mau keiki, Bestway H2OGO! ʻO nā papa Splash ka mea āu e pono ai. He pā piʻi kona, ʻelua mau paheʻe ma kēlā ʻaoʻao a me kahi ala keʻakeʻa me ka pā wai, nā kini ʻōpala a me nā ʻeke kuʻi ʻalo i hiki i nā keiki ke pāʻani i ka lā a pau me ka luhi ʻole.
He nui ka loko i mua o ka paheʻe no nā keiki e noho ai a hoʻomaha, akā e makaʻala ʻaʻole hāʻawi kēia ʻano hoʻohālike i ka hohonu o ka wai ma luna o ka honua.
Hoʻokomo ʻia ka pāpaʻi i loko o ʻelua mau minuke no ka leʻaleʻa wikiwiki, a ua hoʻokomo ʻia kahi ʻeke mālama paka wai ke hoʻohana ʻole ʻia. Hana ʻia ka uhi o ka pā hale i ka polyester i uhi ʻia i ka PVC a hoʻoikaika ʻia me ka humuhumu pālua i hiki i kāu keiki ke pāʻani me ka maluhia o ka noʻonoʻo.
Ma ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa, manaʻo mākou i ka Intex Rectangular Ultra XTR Frame ma luna o ka loko o ka lepo me ka pauma kānana one ma ke ʻano he wai ʻoi loa ma luna o ka honua. He maʻalahi ka hui ʻana o nā loko, nui ka nui o ka wai a hiki ke hoʻokipa maikaʻi i nā pākeke he nui i ka manawa like, e hoʻolilo iā lākou i mea kūpono no ka leʻaleʻa.
Aia ma luna o nā loko wai ʻelua mau mea nui: ke kiʻi a me ka liner. Hiki ke hana ʻia ke kiʻi mai ka alumini, ke kila, a i ʻole ka resin, ʻo ia ke ʻano o ka plastic. ʻOi aku ka pale ʻana o ka resin ma mua o ke kila a ʻaʻole wela i ka lā kauwela. Inā koho ʻoe i ke kiʻi kila, i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia ka mea ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ke kiʻi, e hoʻopaʻa pono i ka pauka i uhi ʻia e pale aku i ka ʻōpala.
Loaʻa i nā loko wai paʻa ke kila a i ʻole nā ​​paia polymer me kahi uhi vinyl ʻokoʻa. ʻO nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni i hoʻopaʻa ʻia me nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka wehe a hoʻololi ʻana, e hoʻolilo iā lākou i mea kūpono no nā loko me nā ʻaoʻao paʻakikī a me nā decking a puni.
Loaʻa i nā loko wai liʻiliʻi he vinyl ma ke ʻano he pā a me ka liner. Ke hoʻopiha ʻia ka loko i ka wai, hoʻoikaika ka wai i ke ʻano o ka loko i ʻole e neʻe ka ʻōpū i ka wā e ʻauʻau ana.
Hiki ke pāpaʻu nā loko wai ma luna aʻe o 20 ʻīniha a i ʻole 4.5 kapuaʻi ka hohonu. ʻAʻole naʻe, he mau ʻīniha mau ma waena o ka laina wai a me ka piko o ka loko, no laila e hoʻomanaʻo i ka wā e koho ai i ka hohonu o ka loko.
Ke koho ʻana i ka loko wai maikaʻi loa ma luna o ka ʻāina no kou kua, e hoʻomanaʻo ʻaʻole i kūkulu ʻia kēia ʻano i nā ʻanuʻu a i ʻole nā ​​​​pahu e like me nā loko o lalo. ʻO ka mea ʻē aʻe, he mau alapiʻi ko nā loko ma luna o ka honua e komo a puka i waho o ka loko. Hiki iā ʻoe ke kūʻai i kahi alapiʻi me kahi ʻaoʻao ma kahi ʻaoʻao no ka maʻalahi o ke komo ʻana.
Ma luna o nā loko wai e hoʻohana i ka ʻōnaehana kānana like me nā loko o lalo o ka honua, koe wale nō ma ka hapalua o ka mana e hoʻopili ai lākou i kāu mau puka i pale ʻia GFCI. ʻO nā ʻano kānana nui ʻelua he ʻōnaehana kānana one a me nā ʻōnaehana kānana pahu pahu. Wahi a Bro, ʻaʻohe ʻano kānana pololei, akā kūʻai pinepine ʻia nā ʻōnaehana kānana pahu me nā loko liʻiliʻi.
ʻO ka ʻōnaehana kānana pahu pahu e hōʻiliʻili i nā ʻōpala i loko o kahi pahu hoʻoneʻe a hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia. Hoʻopaʻa ka ʻōnaehana kānana one i nā ʻōpala i ke one wili. He maʻalahi ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i nā kānana one akā pono e holoi ʻia. ʻOi aku ka paʻakikī o nā kānana pahu pahu e hoʻomaʻemaʻe akā ʻaʻole pono e hoʻomaʻemaʻe pinepine ʻia, wahi a Brough. Pono e holo lōʻihi nā kānana a pau e kānana i ka mana holoʻokoʻa o ka loko i kēlā me kēia lā.
ʻOkoʻa nā kumukūʻai o ka loko wai ma luna o ke ʻano, ka nui, nā mea a me nā mea pono. ʻO nā koho āpau ma kā mākou papa inoa o nā loko wai maikaʻi loa ma luna o ka honua mai $500 a i $1,900, ma muli o ka nui a me ka nui āu e ʻimi nei. Eia naʻe, hiki iā ʻoe ke mālama i ke kālā inā koho ʻoe i kahi wai liʻiliʻi a i ʻole kahi koho inflatable. Hiki ke kūʻai ʻia ke kūkulu ʻana i kahi pā a puni kahi wai ma luna o ka honua mai $15 a i $30 no kēlā me kēia kapuaʻi square. Aia nō ke kumu kūʻai hope loa ma lalo o ka awelika $35,000.
Inā noho ʻoe i kahi anuanu me ka hāʻule pinepine ʻana o ka hau, ka hau a me nā mahana maloʻo, ʻo ka wehe ʻana a me ka mālama ʻana i kahi loko wai ma luna o ka honua no ka hoʻoilo ʻo ia ke ala maikaʻi loa e pale aku ai i ka pōʻino o kāu hale wai.
