An Intex above ground pool is the fastest way to get a real swimming pool at home in Jordan: no digging, no construction, and you can pack it away for winter. This guide explains the four pool types we sell, which size fits your space, and what to check before you order.
The four types of Intex pools
Easy Set: the quickest and lowest price
An inflatable ring at the top rises as the pool fills with water. There is no frame to build, so it is the fastest pool to set up and the easiest to fold away. Best as a first family pool and for children. Sizes in our store run from 2.44 m to 3.66 m across.
Metal Frame: sturdy and good value
A steel frame holds straight walls, which gives more swimming room than an Easy Set pool of the same width. Available round and rectangular. A good choice for small and medium gardens and for families who want a stronger pool without a big budget.
Prism Frame: stronger and deeper
A stronger frame and deeper water, with depths in our range from 76 cm up to 1.22 m. Rectangular, round and oval shapes are available. Choose it when adults will swim as well as children, and when you want a pool that comes back summer after summer.
Ultra XTR: the biggest pools for villas and farms
The largest and deepest Intex pools, 1.32 m deep and from 5.49 m up to 9.75 m long in our store. This is the choice for large gardens, villas and farms where the whole family wants room to really swim.
Which size should you choose?
Measure the flat area you have, then leave about one meter of free space around the pool for walking, the ladder and the filter pump. Use this table as a starting point.
| Who will use it | Suggested size | Suggested type |
|---|---|---|
| Young children, small yard or terrace | 2.2 m to 2.6 m rectangular, or 2.44 m round | Easy Set or small Metal Frame |
| A family with children | 3 m to 3.66 m round, or 3 m × 2 m rectangular | Metal Frame or Prism Frame |
| Adults and teenagers who want to swim | 4 m × 2 m up to 4.88 m × 2.44 m, at least 1 m deep | Prism Frame pool |
| Large family, villa or farm | 5.49 m × 2.74 m and larger, 1.32 m deep | Ultra XTR pool |
Check these before you order
- The ground must be flat, level and firm. A pool on a slope puts uneven pressure on the walls.
- Water is heavy: one cubic meter weighs one ton. Before placing a pool on a roof or balcony, ask an engineer whether the structure can carry the weight.
- Check what is in the box. Models with Filter Pump or Set in the name include extras. For the others, add a filter pump that matches the pool size.
- Plan for a cover and a ground cloth. A cover keeps dust and leaves out, which matters a lot in our climate, and a ground cloth protects the pool floor.
- Have a water source and a power socket nearby for filling the pool and running the filter pump.
Keeping the water clean
Clean water needs three things: a filter pump running every day, a sanitizer such as chlorine at the right level, and a cover when the pool is not in use. Test the water regularly and clean or replace the filter cartridge when it gets dirty.
Common questions
Do you deliver outside Amman?
Yes. We deliver to all areas of Jordan, and delivery is free on orders above 25 JD. You pay cash when the order arrives.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Intex Jordan products come with a warranty of 1 to 6 months, depending on the model.
Can I leave the pool up all year?
Frame pools can stay up for the whole season. For winter, we recommend draining the pool, drying it fully and storing it indoors so it lasts longer.
