Hi All. Hope everyone had a good winter!
I took the cover off my IGP this weekend and saw that either I lost a substantial amount of water or the company that closed my pool took out way more than they usually do. I had 3-4 inches left in the 4' deep shallow end. I saw a couple of pretty big wrinkles on the bottom, and the liner had popped off for about 10'.
I wasn't too worried since I needed to re-silicone my steps (possible source of leak) and it needed to be that low to complete. I silliconed the steps, waited 24 hours and started to fill. My hope was that the water pressure would force the liner back in place and I would be able to snap it back in. No such luck. It's very tight and the water is pretty cold, so at this point, I can't budge the liner.
My question is, is this fixable and if so where do I begin? Is there a way to stretch the liner? I was hoping to get another year or two out of this liner, but if replacement is the only option, that's what I'll look into.
