I just had a new Doughboy pool installed. The liner is folded at the top of the return. The fold is about 3 inches long and extends out about 1 inch from the wall. The installer refuses to fix it because he claims he would have to replace the liner. He also claims it won’t cause any problems. My question is when the pool is winterized will damage occur to the liner from ice?

Welcome to TFP.
Show us pics of the problem area.
Ice does not damage a liner unless it is disturbed. Once ice forms do not touch the pool until the ice is melted. When the ice is disturbed the ice movement can cause sharp edges to tear the liner.
