New Above Ground Pool Plumbing and Liner Question

[cousinjerry]

Hello all,

I'm hearing the completion of my 21' AGP and looking for some guidance.

1. I'm just roughing in for the plumbing and hoping someone would comment on if they see any issues. Coming off the filter I've got a manual bypass assembly for the heater. The heater will be located about 20' up from the shut offs you see in the pictures. After the check valve will be the SWG at the return. Any concerns with this set up?

2. I've got the vacuum on the liner and slowly filling the pool with the hose before I get a bulk delivery shortly. With the vacuum on, the liner is tight against most of the walls but not yet against the foam cove. I've got about 3" of water in it now and it's still not against the cove in all locations. Will it still stretch as it fills? It's not crazy hot here but it's about 25 degrees Celsius.

Thanks!

I don't see any issues with your plumbing. Lots of unions in place, bypass after the filter, and even an option to pump to waste after the pump. Hopefully that liner stretches enough for you. Looks nice.

Thanks Texas!

Guess I'll book water for later this week when its warmer and hope for the best!

A quick update for anyone reading in the future. 4000gals in the pool now (about half full) and the liner has stretched nicely into the cove. Next water truck is tomorrow before I cut the skimmer and return.

For anyone reading this in the future with liner stretching concerns, its amazing how much they do stretch in the warm sun with some water.
