FILLING POOL WITH WATER
ATTENTION: Do not leave pool unattended while filling with water.
Pool walls will rise as you fill with water. (See Fig. 7)
The pool liner must extend evenly around the outside of the inflatable ring when filling the pool with water.
1. Fill pool to drain valve.
STOP
2. Turn water off. Check that the water is not collecting on any side to ensure the pool is level. If pool is not level, drain
water and re-level ground by digging out. Never attempt to move the pool with water in it, serious personal injury or
damage to the pool may result.(See Fig. 9)
NOTE: Your pool may contain up to xxxxx liters / xxxx gallons which equals xxxxx pounds of pressure. If your pool
has any bulge or uneven side then the pool is not level, the sides may burst and the water may discharge suddenly
causing serious personal injury and/or damage to property.
3. Fill pool to lowest pump valve.
STOP
4. Turn water off. Check valves for secure fit.
5. Fill pool until water capacity is 80%, up to the bottom of the inflated ring of the pool so that the sides are smooth and
firm. DO NOT OVERFILL as this could cause the pool to collapse. In times of heavy rainfall you may need to empty
some of the water to ensure the level is correct. (See Fig. 8)
6. Check pool for any leaks at valves or seams, check ground cloth for any evident water loss. Do not add chemicals
until this has been done.
7. In the event of a leak, patch your pool using the patch kit provided. Refer to the FAQ's for further information.

Pool Maintenance
If you do not adhere to the maintenance guidelines below, your health might be at risk, especially that of your children.
NOTE: The filter pump is used to circulate the water and to filter small particles to keep your water free of suspended
dirt particles. In order to keep your pool water clean and hygienic you must add chemicals.
To keep your pool clean:
1. Contact your local pool supply shop for advice and purchase of chemicals and PH kits.One of the most important
factors to increase the life of the liner is to keep continuosly clean and healty water. Please follow strictly the
instructions from professional technicians for the water treatment through the use of chemicals.
2. Locate a bucket of water next to pool to clean users' feet before entering pool.
3. Cover the pool when not in use.
4. Skim pool regularly to avoid settled dirt.
5. Check the filter cartridge regularly, change filter cartridge if filter cartridge remains soiled or discolored. Suggest
replacing the filter cartridge every 2 weeks.
6. Gently clean any scum from below the top ring with a clean cloth.
7. To improve the water quality we suggest to use Bestway accessories like skimmer, maintenance kits. Please visit our
website www.bestway-service.com or contact your pool supplier. Please be careful in case of rain water, kindly check
that the water level is not higher than the expected one. If so, please act consequently.
Proper maintenance can maximize the life of your pool.
ATTENTION: Do not use pump when pool is in use.
During the season of use of the swimming pool, the filtration system must be necessarily put into service every day,
enough for a long time to assure at least a complete renewal of the volume of water.
Repair
If your pool is damaged, use the repair patch. -see FAQ's for instructions.
Dismantling
1. Unscrew the drain valve cap on the outside of the pool counter clockwise and remove.
2. Connect the adaptor to the hose and put the other end of the hose in the area where you are going to drain your
pool. (Check local regulations for drainage by-laws).
3. Screw control ring of the hose adaptor onto the drain valve clockwise. The drain valve will be open and water will
start to drain automatically.
ATTENTION: Water flow can be controlled with the control ring.
4. When draining is finished, unscrew the control ring to close the valve.
5. Disconnect the hose.
6. Screw the cap back onto the drain valve.
7. Deflate the top ring.
8. Air dry pool.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside.
Storage

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a suitable base for the Fast Set pool?
Almost any completely flat, solid, level surface can be used. Do not use sand as a leveling material as it is prone to
shifting under the pool. The ground should be dug out until it is perfectly level. Do not set up on driveways, decks,
platforms, gravel or asphalt. The ground should be firm enough to withstand the weight and pressure of the water: mud,
sand, soft / loose soil or tar are not suitable. A concrete base can be used but care should be taken not to drag the pool
across the surface as abrasions could tear the liner. If the pool is to be set up on a lawn, it is recommended that the
grass is removed from where the pool will sit as it will die and may cause odors / slime. Certain types of hardy grass
can grow through the liner as can aggressive bushes / plants by the side of the pool. Ensure adjacent vegetation is cut
back where necessary. Use of a ground cloth assists in protecting the base of the pool.
2. How will I know if my pool is set up on unleveled ground?
If your pool appears to be bulging on one side it is not set up on level ground. It is important that you empty your pool
and move the pool to a level site. If the pool is not on level ground it will place undue stress on the seams and could

result in the seams bursting which will cause flooding, property damage and potentially personal injury or death.
Fig. 1
Fill your pool following the instructions in the owner's manual carefully. This will ensure that you do not waste water
and the pool can be moved easily so that the ground can be leveled at an appropriate time and not after you have
completely filled it with water.
3. How much pressure is recommended to use during inflation of the ring of my Fast Set pool?
We recommend the use of a Bestway inflation Pump (not included) or other low-pressure pump when attempting to
inflate the top ring. The top ring is filled to capacity when it becomes round in shape and is firm to the touch. Pay
attention to major air temperature variation. An over inflated ring heated by the sun may burst or could lead to leaks in
the seam; if the ring feels too firm let some of the air out. In cold ambient temperature the top ring will lose some
Fig. 6
pressure, it may appear as though the ring is deflating due to a leak, DO NOT add air since the air inside will expand
again once the temperature rises. Note: Every use of air compressor or high pressure pump for the inflation of the ring
is forbidden. Bestway inflatables will not be responsible for bursting of the ring due to the use of air compressor.
4. Can I have my pool filled by a water service?
We recommend using a garden hose under low pressure for filling your pool. If it is necessary to use a water delivery
service, it is best to fill the pool with one inch of water by hose and smooth wrinkles first. Use a water service that is able
to regulate the flow of water to prevent damage. Ensure you stop at each step as noted in the instruction manual to
ensure your pool is level. Bestway will not be held responsible for pools damaged or weakened by water delivery
services.
5. What is the maximum fill height of the pool?
Fill pool until water capacity is 80% up to the bottom of the inflated ring of the pool. Never attempt to fill your pool
beyond the base of the ring. We recommend leaving extra room to account for water displacement when occupants are
inside the pool. You may have to top up the water during the season which has been lost through evaporation or normal
use.
6. My pool is leaking, what do I do to fix it?
The pool does not need to be emptied to fix any holes. Self-adhesive underwater repair patches can be purchased at
your local pool / hardware store. For external use, use the repair patch provided. For internal holes, clean the hole on
the inside of the pool to wipe off any oils and algae. Cut a circle large enough to cover the hole and apply the patch
securely onto the side in the water. Cut a second patch and apply to the outside of the pool for extra strength. If the hole
is in the base of the pool use one patch only and weigh it down with a heavy object while it bonds. For a hole in the top
ring, inflate the ring to locate the hole, mark the hole so you can see it easily and apply the patch pressing down firmly.
Once it is applied deflate the ring slightly to take some of the pressure off the patch. If the ring is completely deflated and
the pool is empty put a heavy weight onto the patch to assist in bonding. If you have patched the pool when it is empty
we recommend you leave it at least 12 hours before filling.
7. Where can I buy filter cartridges and how often should I change them?
Filter cartridges to fit your filter pump should be available from the store where you purchased your pool. If not, most
mass retailers sell filter cartridges as an accessory. If you are unable to obtain replacements please call our toll-free
number and we will assist you in finding a source local to you. The cartridges should be changed every 2 weeks
dependent upon use of the pool. Check the filter on a weekly basis and clean by hosing down any debris and particles.
Note: Ensure your pump is disconnected from the electrical supply before checking the filter cartridge. You can also visit
our website www. bestway-service.com for cartridge purchase.
8. How many times a year should I change the water?
This is dependant on the amount of use the pool receives, and the attention paid to covering the pool and keeping
chemicals properly balanced. If maintained correctly the water should last a full summer season. Please contact your
local pool chemical supplier for detailed information regarding chemicals, they will be able to advise you how to best
maintain the cleanliness of your water.
9. Do I need to take my pool down for the winter?
Yes, Above-ground pools may collapse under the weight of ice and snow and the PVC walls will be damaged. We
recommend taking the pool down when temperatures fall below 8ºC / 45ºF. The pool should be stored indoors in a
moderate temperature between 5ºC / 41ºF and 38ºC / 100ºF. Please store away from chemicals and rodents and out of
the reach of children.
10. My pool is fading – why is that?
Excessive use of chemicals can cause the color of the inside of the liner to fade; this is similar to a swimsuit fading
over time from repeated contact with chlorinated water.
11. How many years will the pool last?
There is no set time limit for the pool to last; following the instructions in the owner's manual and with proper care,
maintenance and storage you can considerably increase the life of your pool. Improper set-up, use or care can result in
failure of the pool.
12. Do you recommend the use of a filter pump with a Bestway Fast Set pool?
Absolutely! We strongly recommend you the use of a filter pump which could maintain the water of the pool clean.
13. Which are the most important functions of my filter pump?
The most important function of a filter pump is the elimination of every sort of impurity from the water by the aid of a
filter cartridge and chemical products for its sterilization.
14.The top ring is sitting on the inside of the pool wall when the pool is filled with water- why?
The top ring should always be on top of the pool wall. Do not press down on the top ring when filling the pool.
