Thats just it, i am working with a liner that was not measured properly so I am accepting the wrinkles as a DIY learning issue. ( my fault) the company i purchased it from has been wonderful about it and has promised to sell me a new one at cost if we cant live with our mistakes. I am just...

well, we are finally filling up the pool and accepting we will have some wrinkles. I have noticed there are some parts that seem a little tight, will these possible relaxe a little once the pool is completely full. we have about 2 feet left to go

Thats true, i just need to get some slack to one corner

i have heard of that, can it be done with the water in it. i dont want to drain what we already have in it, even though we still have 4 feet to fill.

Well started putting the liner in , what alot of work. It looks like it is working, but there are some long wrinkles, that we have been working out with out hands, but was wondering what would work better since we do have about 4 feet of water in the pool.. it seems if I can work them toward...

Thank you for helping me out with this.

Great!!!!, how long can do I have to work with the pool empty. we live in an area that is in the 80-90's right now, and we hope to have it completed by sat morning. we are wanting to put in new tracking today and tomorrow and repair the corners.

yes it does. and i spoke with the maker of the liner designer and he stated that we should be able to do this as long as we try to maintane the compaction of the soil.

Drained the pool last night and found out that the bottom is not vermiculite, but really a sand bottom. Any advise on this would be great. Can we change the side of the pool to match the liner from 2'8" to 3'6"? Thank you

Still waiting to hear from the manufactures on the liner. the dealer told me if the deep of the pool was wrong that would be a huge problem but the deep its not its just the part where the wall ends and the sloop starts thats wrong. crossing my fingers right now.

well liner has finally arrived and yes the wall is measuring at 42" before the sloop of the hooper starts (it is really 32"). I called the dealer and he is trying to see how this will effect the install. I am so upset because after going through my measurements i wont be able to put it on them...

no we dont have a water table issue. thank you so much for your help.

I would also like to know how long can my pool be empty. i am planning on draining it 2 days before installing the new liner, so we can do any repairs and cleaning that need to be done.

yes it is and i also made a drawing showing the curve in the slop. thank god i emailed it in. I have my proof they had gotten my drawing

There is a slop, the pool is 3'6" but the slop starts at 2'8". and I did tell them on a phone call that I noted in the drawing that the slop starts at 2'8". im just really confused at this point. i feel i am just going to have to try to make it work. I have a feeling it will be put back on me...
