So I have read a couple of posts about leveled and unleveled pools. For the most part people are saying if the pool is not leveled under 3 inches then the pool should be fine. Well I have two photos of my pool. I measured and it was like 1.75 to 1.85 in off compared to one side. My ground is in a slope we tried to leveled before filling with water and when the pool was half way filled it looked unleveled. We raised the legs about 2 inches and it looked better. Well when the water was filled it was still off by 1.75-1.85 in. Well not sure if its safe for this one season. I do plan of fixing after this season but will it hold up? Please help me I am super new. The pool is Coleman by Bestway USA Pools its an 18 by 4 round pool
Please help

You are probably ok. My concern is the method that you used to level... did you dig down, or build up?

You will most likely have future issues, as building up does not create a solid ground. The part you built up is likely to settle, resulting in being more unleveled, which may or may not result in pool collapse/failure.
My Plan is to fix it after this Summer Season. The parts I built up I used wood planks so idk if that helps. I just need to know if it's safe to use this summer and then fix the leveling after the season. Please let me know guys. I appreciate all the help
 
Hi! Thanks for the call out Lorri!

Did you take pics of the ground after you leveled it? I would love to see the "planks of wood" you used as well.

The water level looks good. I want to make sure the base of the pool is taken care of to be on the safe side.
