Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an In-Step entry system, or is a ladder enough?
A standard A-frame ladder works for basic pool access. The In-Step entry system is a built-in step that mounts inside the pool wall — it's easier to use, especially for children and older swimmers, and gives your pool a more finished, permanent look. The In-Step is worth considering if your pool model supports it.
What does a skimmer extension throat do?
If your pool has 52" or 54" walls, the skimmer opening sits lower relative to the water line than it would on a 48" wall. A skimmer extension throat raises the skimmer opening to the correct height so it can skim surface debris effectively. It's a small but important part for taller pools.
What chemicals do I need when I first fill my pool?
For the initial fill, you'll need chlorine or shock, pH adjuster, alkalinity increaser, and a test kit. Doughboy's chemical starter kits include everything for the first fill in one package. Our water testing lab can also analyze your fill water and tell you exactly what it needs — bring in a sample anytime.
