    What is this fitting for?

    Our pool guy reccomends draining every other month or so to keep the ground water down. Definitely before a storm! We connect 1hp motor and it drains for days. Commonly called a well point around here.

    Water behind brand new liner

    I've never had wrinkles after New install. And have been told u can't "reseat" liner and have it line up correctly with returns and skimmer already cut out. I believe it's his responsibility if u had wrinkles from day one.

    Major leak need help possible return

    You just opened the pool and the water level was fine? Then what did you do filter, backwash? If the gasket is messed up it wouldn't matter if pump was on or off it could still let water thru.

    Large Gap Between Liner and Coping

    So, the old liner and track were still in the pool? They knew where the old track was and put the new one below it? Makes no sense why they did it that way. Did you call and ask? Yes you're right, they can't move the liner after the holes are cut for skimmer etc. You may be able to put some...
