Hi, I have a 23ft round above ground pool, installed by "pros" from a pool company. Over the winter sometime, my pool developped some bulges in the metal wall at the bottom. I removed a bit of material under the track and the post support. There was a slight improvement but its not 100%. One bulge is leaving a gap of 1/2" between the post and pool wall at the bottom while other places, the bulge is outwards at the very bottom. I did notice last year the the water level was not the same everywhere and a quick measurement this year showed approx 1.5" difference in water height across the pool north to south when measured from the top rail to the water level. Water appears to be higher on the North side (10" top rail to water) where bulges are compared to the south side (11.5" top rail to water). My winter cover is still on, still cold here, and water level is just below skimmer and water inlet. There is no rust, only 2 yrs old. Would I be wrong in thinking I need to lower the south side of the pool to make this more even? The top of the pool seems pretty level so maybe they just did not level the bottom properly in which case lowering the posts and might not make any difference. I am really baffled with this one. It is not my first pool but I never had this issue before. Can anyone offer some advice based on experience?
