Hey guys! I woke up this morning to see my pool liner floating thanks to Hurrican Irene. :grrrr: Pictures attached.
I'm not 100% sure why, but am almost certain it has to do with the water table. I had well over 14 inches of rain in 24 hours. I do not see any large tears nor do I see any large branches in the pool.
The liner is 4 years old but seems to be in very good shape (very flexible). I believe this can be repaired vs. replacing. Keep in mind I'm in NY and have a short pool season, therefore the liner is not as old as its age suggests.
I have a dedicated line to suck out water and air from behind the liner. I'm not sure my shop vac will be powerful enough to do it but obviously am willing to try. So where do I start? Repair first, adjust chemicals, wait for water table to subside, etc.? Should I run the pumps?
I skimmed the pool but the winds are still a little strong and making this pointless till tomorrow.
I called a couple of pool guys incase this gets over my head. Can anyone ball park the price I should expect to correct this?
Thanks in advance for your help!
