Thank you!! Been driving myself crazy trying to get the stupid ring to inflate in order to FINALLY set up our pool!! Pool noodle shopping TOMORROW!!! Thanks again!
You my lady are a goddess❤❤❤thank u so much my daughter had 16foot brand new sumer waves pool someone decided to cut the inflatable part of pool during the nighttime..never even got in the pool. I'll try to patch but if all fails you have left me with lots of hope for the 400 plus I spent on the pool. 🎉
Using the aquarium pump plumbed into the fill valve was the best solution for me. no need to cut the ring to add noodles or plastic jugs. These pools are junk.
@@jeffinerd1 Aquarium pumps blow air bubbles into an aquarium. Steve is suggesting to connect one to the pool's rim so that it's constantly replacing leaked air.
You can also in addition to the foam noodles, if you have Alot of Bubble wrap as used in packaging, you can shove that in with the pool noodles too! I didn't do mine yet but looks like I will have to...I did the water/Dawn spray inflate fully, didn't see any bubbles...went inside and outside the pool checking the seams where the ring is attached to the pool, the cellophane thing I couldn't do it kept bunching up on me I didn' t have the patience...I even wondered, if the auto tire sealer in a can would work but Probably need 10 cans of that ormore? Also not sure it would fare well in the heat; although tires do! So likey will have to go this route. My pool lasted 4 years with no leaks until this year. I'd have gotten a new one had I known, and I"m not about to go thru all the work of taking it down and putting up a new one, so foam noodles it is ! I've seen others on YOu Tube with success with this !
I litterally just bought pool noodles to do this... then thiught lets look on youtube. And sure enough.lol at least now i kniw it will work. Its time to go get our pool back up. Awesome.
I can not find a leak. Had this Intex inflated pool for a week and everyday I’m needing to pump air into the top and fill the pool at least 3-5 inches. This blows😩
yeah, these air rings are a joke. i have a leak as well. i found one hole and patched it but apparently there’s another one that i can’t find. i thought about those pool noodles too but didn’t do it. i’ve thought about filling the air ring with water and trying to find the leak that way. i just don’t want water to get trapped in there and cause a bigger headache later on.
You are a frickin genius!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!! I was about to pull my hair out

Im trying to understand what you mean by “the aquarium pump plumbed into the fill valve”🤔

So that would have to run 24/7 I'm not sure about this idea
Thank you for this idea i might try this for my pool!

I have the same pool and problem to and you for this video!! Take care!! ❤️❤️
I was wondering if non-bidegradeable packing peanuts blownwith a leaf blower in would work.
This is a great way to save your pool when you can’t even find the dang hole!

How many feet is your pool and what sizes where the noodles
How many pool noodles did it take?
I bought 15 for mine from the 1.25 store lol
Hi I’m very late, but you filled it after you out the noodles in right? It rose up correctly? I’m going to triple the up
