Back again with another question regarding my pool install. PB installed the liner Friday. It’s a 16x32 rectangle with 6” radius. I have concerns about the two shallow end corners. From what I understand it’s normal for the liner to be floating in the corners right now as the pool isn’t filled. However, in addition to being a few inches off the wall, the two shallow end corners have ripples/wrinkles in them. Is this normal? Will it go away when the pool is completely filled. My concerns are exacerbated by the fact that he installed the stair track and cut the liner at the stairs before any water was put in. He did come back the next day to cut the returns and skimmers after it was filled to about 4-5” in the shallow end.

I’m less concerned about the wrinkles circled in green as I imagine those are just from the liner being folded in the box. But the ripples in red (very hard to get a good photo of them) seem like they are from the liner being misaligned.

Thoughts?

those in the second photo look like creases to me from when the liner was folded - i would observe as the liner is being filled - it looks like both sets will pull tight. Is the pool currently filling?

Thanks. Not being filled yet. Waiting on electrician, then backfill so prob. a while before it is completely filled.
