Our above ground pools as been in place for the last 3 years. On the side of of the pool where the skimmer is located the floor of the pools has sunk where it appears the pool installed filled it in with dirt. The top rail of the pool has not sunk, it's support on some rather large blocks. Where two of the support columns are located the sand cove has move to the floor. This has exposed the bottom track that the wall sits in and at these columns the track ends and at that end it feels like there are sharp ends that are poking under the liner. My fear is that it will cut though the liner.
So my plan is to let the pool sit over winter, in the spring drain the pool, remove the J-Hook liner, no more than 1/2 at a time. I'm concerned that the liner will not go back down correctly as it's been up for three years. I'll put more sold down. I would put more soil down and tamp it down then put a little more. I was going to put a foam cove back down.
My biggest concern is the liner. if I drain the pool, do you all think the liner will shrink or not go back down? On the side of the pool where the floor has sunk it's 3-5" deeper than the other side of the pool. With a mask and snorkel on the liner is not coming out under the bottom track.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Joe
