    New Pool, New Equipement

    Thanks for the reply Kim! My pool guy said he wouldn't recommend an automatic vacuum for above ground. He said it will destroy my liner little by little. Any comments on this?

    New Liner

    Thanks Techguy!! I don't believe mine has recievers because my liner overlaps to the outside of the pool. Would that be a correct determination?

    New Liner

    Thanks Erivette!! I'll keep this site in my favorites!! That seems like a great price.. Our local pool store chargers $500 for the install only. Also, they charge $675 for a 25 gauge 30' around liner which I thought was CRAZY :hammer: I said, thanks but I'll shop on-line!!
