Hi everyone,
So our liner busted this winter and I have to install a new pool as it destroyed our wall beyond repair. Looking for advice. See attached pictures, would it be better or worst to install the pool on top of the foam?? (I.e. wall/rails sit on foam?) Or should the foam be only inside the pool (i.e. wall/rail sit on ground/pavers). Previous pool didnt have foam and is what lead to liner failling.
Was thinking about adding wall foam to the new pool but debating if it's worth it...seems thin... considering installing 1/2" extruded on wall all around...is that a yay or nay? Pool is in sunny area and seem to be getting heat in thru wall just from the sun... adding insulation would reduce that but keep more heat at night... it's a catch 22!!
Didnt have any pavers at the post previously, and one area with a bit of frost heave damage...would pavers help that any or it would still move with frost. Going to dig down that said area and add gravel crusher dust. See picture with circled area... that was my previous base. I will freshen it up before adding the same pool.
Thank you for input
