Alright thanks!

Thanks everyone Joyfulnoise: I was thinking about that, I need to find out where I can buy one and a price. I had seen large electrical conduit boxes with removable lid but they are $40 or even $60 for a large one at my local home depot. I'll try looking around for something like what you...

FINISHED PHOTO FIRST!!! ================================================================================================== Over in the Above Ground sub-thread I have a thread about concerns regarding adding main drains to my 27' ag pool. Had to replace the liner, due to a cut...

So I finally got the pool up and running today. I had to find the time to do the plumbing and clean the filter and assemble it all back together. It's not straight, but im not a plumber either. haha. It works though! Next step is to clean it all up. Dig it out, place weed material and then...

It's wrinkle free so not sure if it's just an optical illusion in the photo. I installed the bottom gorilla pad but it surely wasn't real thick. I considered the foam floor but figured I'd get a little flex even with tape and then you'd be able to see every crease and it wouldn't turn out good...

Honestly, because it was a budget issue I bought a complete kit from poolsupplies on ebay. Here it is. Really happy with it all except the gorilla pad. Just expected an actual thick pad. Regardless it is still worth it for sure. I would never do another liner without it. Sunlight 25 Gauge...

Been a long day, couldn't get started until 3pm. Got off work at 7am, Had to photograph some real estate, someone backed into my wife and son in her suv to top it off. I can finally say, I'm excited. It's just been work until now, Here's the drains installed, Wall Foam Installed, Cove pieces...

The work has begun Drains are more than 3ft apart so their fine.

ok thanks. Yeah mine will be closer than that. I will try and search to find out but I figured 3 ft apart, out from the center would be fine.

The items have arrived. I'm NOT doing a foam bottom. Can't justify the $200-$300 for it right now. I'll stick to refreshing the sand and the gorrilla pad which is nothing more than a thick felt pad. Liner Bottom Pad ( Glorified felt pad... ) Coves Coping strips Wall padding 2 Hayward Main...

Yes I'll be installing two drains because the haywards came in a pack of two (for the price of 1) and I also know it's new code recommendations. Unsure about regarding an above ground. I'll be adding a 2nd return as well at the bottom of the wall as well. I purchased a 3way adjustable valve...

I can site multiple people and sites that all say a md reduces vacuuming maintenance on an above ground pool because while surface trash is pushed to the walls water debris is pulled into the center of the pool with good circulation. The main drain will help reduce vacuumming time and for me...

Sounds great, thanks for the information. It's a 27' and 52" tall so that's good to know it's low psi on the floor. Sure, any information is appreciated. While mines already installed I'll be digging for the drain. Did you install 2 main drains? I know it's the new recommendation. So you wish...

Hello, As I'm about to replace my vinyl liner in my 27' Above Ground I've been researching adding a main drain to the center of the pool for less maintenance. The idea of less weekly maintenance is huge for me and completely negates any cost. My concerns are likely hood of leaks. I live in...
