Hello everyone,
We are finally ready for our build. We purchased a 24' AGP a month ago and rain has held me up on the build. I have tried to use some of the delay time wisely by reading Pool School and 100's of posts! I also have a brand new TF-100 kit ready to go to work.
Here's my problem. I was wanting to use foam board for our pool's bottom Vs. sand. I have read 1.5" or 2" is what most have used. However, our local stores only carry up to 1" thick sheets. I have read posts where some folks have used just a Happy Bottom or Gorilla Pad with no sand. I was wondering if I could just use one layer of the 1" foam sheets directly on the ground and be ok? My biggest concern is liner stretch. It is a "J" hook liner.
Thanks for the GREAT site!
