New liner is being ordered this week for my in ground pool. If anyone recalls, it split in the fall last year and we got a pool company onboard to change it now that the season is upon us. So, here's my question... What brand of pool liner to get? We've been looking at Latham, Merlin, and...

Pretty sure I just came dangerously close to a problem of biblical proportions. When I put pressure on the liner to wipe it down before taping it up, it made a bang and split open! 😬 I Gorilla Taped the poop out of it as fast as I could. Seemed to stick underwater. 😬

While waiting, should I attempt to patch that hole/tear so it doesn't possibly cause a catastrophe?

Water level started dropping noticably this weekend and while inspecting for where the leak could be, I noticed this. Figured there wasn't much sense in pursuing the leak at that point and the water level seems to have stabilized, albeit about an inch or so below the low water line on skimmer...

I appreciate the update. I've followed this since the beginning. Fascinating.

Moved from HERE A friend of mine is having this exact problem with a Hayward multiport on an above ground pool filter. Just curious if OP found the problem. I read in another thread that if you're not careful during reassembly, the stand pipe can extend too far up into the multiport and block...
