Hi all,
I feel so bad for my kids...we DON'T have our pool up and running yet and here it is JULY! We had a few pinholes develop near our pool steps early this spring, and it washed away about 2 feet of the sand "coping" under the liner...so it is now sitting with about 5 inches of water in the bottom of the pool. I NEED to pump this out, and pull back the liner a bit in that area, so I can fix the sand edge , and then put the liner back, and refill the pool. my pool is in about 85% shade most of the day....so I plan on doing this project over the next two days...will NOT having the pool full of water for a couple of days, while I am repairing be OK? Again, I'll only have about 6 feet of the liner pulled away from the pool wall, so I can get in to repair the sand along the bottom edge of the wall..then I'll be hanging that portion of the liner again, patching the few small holes, and then refilling.
Just hope this will be OK to do...OR, should I just order an entire new liner?? which would really make me unhappy.
Thanks for any help
Dan
