    • Spray soapy water on suspected areas (seams, valve, floor) and look for bubbles.
  • 3. Patch small holes:
    • Use the Intex repair patch kit.
    • Clean and dry the area, apply patch per instructions, and allow full cure time.
  • 4. Reinflate to correct pressure:
    • Use the built-in pump or recommended pump; do not exceed the indicated pressure.
