Hoping for a quick answer- TOO hot to install new liner?

I know, right? Border isn’t perfect but wasn’t going back. Brutal week with 100 degree temps. Floor seam I believe is acceptable. Do you know when I should put the top rails on? If I shut the vac off there are some wrinkles in the walls ….
 
You can go ahead and install the top rails. A lot of professional installers put the rails on before they fill the pool. A couple of inches of water should be enough to weight down the liner so it will stretch as needed. Leave the vacuum running until the pool is 3/4 full.

Awesome. Thank you. Should I inch the vacuum up so it stays above the water line? Was just debating on whether I should leave the vac run over night so your timing is perfect. Is there a point where it is ok to fill at night? My new liner ended up being more of a pool rehab so now no water delivery until after the 4th 🫤 One more thing - where the heck am I going to find replacement supports like the one below?! I can’t find anything even similar and don’t know what kind of pool I have!

The vacuum is fine where it is. If you are filling the pool with water from the hose then let it run until full or you are ready to go to bed, whichever comes first. I would not leave the water or the vacuum running overnight unattended.
Sorry about the delay answering your question. I'm having car problems today. :mad:

Good luck with the car. I know the feeling. Going out to turn vacuum off. I feel better about that. Thanks again.

As far as replacement parts go, you can look on Inyo pools.com and Teddy Bear pools.com. They can help you identify your pool brand by the wall design. There may also be a name stamped on the top rail plates or caps.
