Hello everyone!
We recently bought a home in May 2021 with a vinyl pool. Our previous home had a vinyl pool as well, so we are not new to pools
Anyway, I wasn’t sure exactly where to post this, so I’m sorry if it isn’t in the right place, but we had someone come look at our pool because the liner is full of wrinkles which we assume are from ground water, poor install, or both.
The pool company/person had three recommendations for us:
1. Keep an eye on the liner for any bubbles/water underneath since the rainy season is coming up here in Texas. If that is an issue, he can install a sump pump into the pool deck with a lifetime warranty (this sounds awesome)
2. He also recommended we remove our SWG because we have brick coping. Ugh. I didn’t wanna hear this. What are your thoughts on this? We really don’t wanna give up the SWG.
3. Finally, he suggested we convert our pressure cleaner line to a suction line and purchase a suction cleaner. Our pool has a dedicated cleaner pump and we have a Polaris 280, which I know is old, but has done great! But the pool company guy said the wheels will eventually mess up the liner, especially with the wrinkles. Thoughts on this? We need to buy a new cleaner (the 280 is old and we need to replace it), and so I wanna make sure we buy the right one for our pool. We were considering just buying another 280
Thank you so much for any advice you can provide :0)
