Frequently asked questions

The Aquarian Phoenix 21 Foot Pool Set includes a steel frame outdoor above ground pool, pump, ladder kit, sand filter, pool liner, net, and skimmer. Everything you need to set up and maintain your pool is included.

The pool has a depth of 52 inches, offering ample depth for swimming and recreational activities for both adults and children.

The Aquarian Phoenix pool is designed for straightforward, DIY assembly. However, it's recommended to have at least 2-3 people to assist with the setup process, which may take a few hours. Following the included instructions carefully will help ensure a smooth setup.

The pool should be installed on a level, stable surface. Grass, dirt, or gravel surfaces need to be prepared and possibly covered with a sand base or other type of padding for protection. Installing on an uneven surface can lead to structural damage and void the warranty.

  • Great quality pool.
Size: 15' Style: Phoenix
I had the pool professionally installed, but finding an installer to do it was a challenge, as they have contracts with pool places. The installer stated he was surprised where I bought the pool & it’s great quality. It’s just as good as the pool places selling 6,000.00 pools for a fraction of the cost. I ordered pool sand for underneath from my local landscaping place & paid to have it delivered too. Look up how much you’ll need online for the specs of your pool. Purchase sand for the filter, because it doesn’t come with it. I also purchased separately cushions for the bottom corners. As a previous pool owner for 14 years, I was familiar with the process. There’s no point in investing your money to not install it properly & expect it to last or give it a bad review. The liner wasn’t a bad one, but after reading reviews before buying, I didn’t want to risk finding out if it was good or not on the day of installation. I bought a heavy gauge one with a pattern instead. The ladder isn’t sturdy, it’s not child proof & a hassle to assemble. I will be buying a better one this summer, but it was useable. Use caution with the ladder is my advice. The filter was big enough to keep my pool clean & I had to buy a hose for vacuuming, the pool package came with attachment to go over the basket hole though. i also use a solar cover & swear by it. It keeps my pool clean, does heat it up & keeps the heat in at night & reduces chlorine from being drained from the sun. The solar covers only last for me for about two years but are we’ll worth it I feel. The caps are a hard resin, but from what I seen at pool places this is the new product. They are sturdy & nothing to be concerned about, as many name brand pool manufacturers are utilizing this resin now. I know many have installed the pool themselves, but they also haven’t done so properly from what I read. If you do it on your own plan on a big project & do it right. Dig down, use sand, go the right route & this pool will last. I’m extremely satisfied and saved more than half the money I would’ve if I went to a pool place. ... show more

  • Everything is broken!
Size: 15' Style: Phoenix
Busted ladder Broken filter. Bent pool frame Missing hardware I am extremely disappointed with this. To start I was sent the kit and the ladder came in a box that was sliced opened and taped back up. When I opened the ladder box the top step was shattered and other peices broken. There weren't enough screws or hose clamps. The directions are terrible. And the assembly is process is argues. If it wasn't for YouTube I don't know how I would have completed this set up. I get everything done and fill the pool. I get the filter that comes with it hooked up and ran it ONE time. There are cracks in the multipor valve assembly. Cracks where the inlet and outlets are. I hand tightened everything. It's not like I wrenched everything down with special tools. I even use thread sealant as an extra step on top of the thread tape to prevent leaks and allow it to assemble easily. Busted ladder Broken filter. Bent pool frame Missing hardware. I contacted them a week ago about the ladder and still haven't gotten a replacement. This kit is too good to be true. Poor quality. Would not recommend. ... show more

  • Instructions are a JOKE. ladder is the biggest piece of junk ever.
Size: 18' Style: Phoenix
The pool is nice. Instructions are a joke to say the least. The whole pool was easier to assemble with online videos.it took twice the time to assemble because of poor instructions on all sections.(pool,ladder,pump) Ladder is unstable on all surfaces and shakes a lot. The outside removable steps wobble and fall off while on them.REALLY UNSAFE LADDER for all sizes and shapes. Claims to hold over 300 pounds. Ladder wobbles with children under 100 pounds on it. Pool liner in thin and plain blue. Pool pump seems to work well with plenty of pressure to circulate the water. The skimmer is several inches below top of wall so more like 48 inches of water for skimmer to work properly.real metal wall so pool is sturdy with many kids in it. ... show more

  • Great pool
Size: 21' Style: Phoenix
I have always wanted a pool, and when we found this, on sale, we jumped on it. It’s been 3 years since we bought it. It still has the original liner and is still going strong. We installed it ourselves. My husband, myself and 2 of our grown sons. We leveled the area, used sand, and a pad, and those styrofoam pads that go along the bottom edges, then we covered it with the liner. Makes sure you properly place the skimmer hole where you want your pump to sit. We set ours up, then realized it was in the wrong spot😩. Putting it up is a serious test in patience. The track is tiny and the wall is super heavy. It’s like putting up a tent with your spouse, but on steroids. There were definitely some angry words spoken, and frustration, but we managed! The biggest tip I can share is to completely level the ground inside the pool too!! We made sure all the legs were level, but we were hot and exhausted and decided the floor area of the pool was smooth enough. It’s now hard to vacuum bc of some small uneven areas that make some divets that the sediment likes to settle into, and a few wrinkles from not making sure the liner was completely smooth. Our family and extended family, have really enjoyed it! ... show more

  • Great pool!
Size: 24' Style: Phoenix
I have had this pool for 3 years now and it is still perfect, only thing I changed was the liner. I upgraded to a better quality 25mil liner(liner that came with it was fine but not what we wanted and 15mil). Outstanding buy and a killer price, half everywhere else in 2022
