    yes we have a 12ft pool too, it took most of the day to fill up! we brought the starter kit from argos i think it was £40, but then discovered it was a waste of money as you do only really need the chlorine, we put in two heaped teaspoons a day and that seems perfect!, be aware that suntan lotion can cause nasty floating bits in the pool which take ages to sieve out!, make sure its dry on your skin b4 you go in! but its a really great thing to have for the summer, we are getting lots of pleasure out of it!!
