PBPools 190244 30 Feet Round Saltwater Friendly Above Ground Pool
Vinyl liners are best installed in warm, sunny weather.
- Overlap liners will be held in place with plastic coping strips.
- Hung or beaded liners will be attached to the liner reciever. Follow pool installation instructions for reciever installation.
- The pool bottom needs to be prepared per pool instructions before liner installation.
- Round and Oval liners are installed in similar steps, the oval liner sidewall seam will typically be aligned along the straight side of the pool.
- Oval liners need to be straight and aligned properly with the shape of the pool, before filling with water. Round liners also need to be evenly distributed along the edge of the sidewall.
- If the liner is not distributed evenly and aligned properly, wrinkles and bunching of the liner can occur.
Overlap Liners
If stabilizer rails were used to help hold the wall up, then you will need to take them off while installing the liner. Do Not place the liner seam directly over the skimmer or return cutouts. Carefully place the liner in a pool near the pool sidewall, and unfold it toward the centre of the pool. Start the liner for an Oval pool in the centre of the rounded end. Work the liner around the top of the sidewall, keeping the liner centred. Be careful when walking around the pool bottom. Smooth out any rough areas.
Spread the liner so that the bottom edge seam of the circumference is resting on the cove evenly around the pool. The seam should not be up on the wall or shifted to one side. These conditions will cause tightness and could cause the liner to slip when the pool is being filled. Starting at the liner sidewall seam, hang the liner over the wall making sure that the seam is straight up and down, perpendicular to the floor. Refer to the illustrations below.
This will ensure that the liner begins going over the wall straight. As you put the liner over the wall secure it by using the plastic coping strips to keep it in place; stabilizer rails may be needed to keep the wall rigid. If you end up with excess material, continue around the pool, pulling the excess liner evenly, and distributing it over the wall until the excess is gone. Remove any floor wrinkles in the liner by tapping gently on the liner sidewall at the bottom, moving the material to the side of the pool. When satisfied with fit continue to the next step.
Complete top rail assembly and vertical assembly per pool installation instructions before continuing. If vacuuming in, block off the skimmer opening with duct tape. Insert the vacuum hose through the return opening and seal it off using duct tape (you are trying to make it airtight). Make sure the vacuum hose has no sharp edges. Turn on the vacuum. In a short time, the liner will be drawn to the pool wall. If any wrinkles exist, turn the vacuum off and readjust the liner. Turn the vacuum on once again and check for wrinkles, if satisfied leave the vacuum running.
Place a sock over the garden hose and tape it in place, this will protect the liner from any sharp edges on the end of the hose. Begin to fill the pool. Keep an eye on the liner while filling to make sure it doesn’t slip. If wrinkles develop, you can likely work them to the side if you catch it soon enough. After you have 12 inches of water in the pool you can turn off the shop vac, remove the vacuum hose and continue filling. Do not cut the liner for the skimmer or return until at least 2 feet of water are in the pool.
If you are not vacuuming in, begin filling the pool, using a broom with soft bristles, gently tap along the bottom edge to pull any wrinkles toward the pool wall. If any wrinkles develop toward the middle of the pool it may be necessary to get in the pool and try and work them out by hand. When satisfied, continue filling the pool, keeping an eye on a liner to make sure it doesn’t slip. Do not cut the liner for the skimmer or return until at least 2 feet of water are in the pool. Please take the time to read and understand all the safety literature provided. Apply all safety decals and signs. The pool owner and installer must follow the installation and use directions for all provided safety signs and decals. Remember, warnings only help if you put them up.
Beaded Liners
(See illustration below for typical beaded liner and receiver). Refer to Overlap Liners for placing and positioning liners in the pool. Once the liner reciever is installed, attach the liner to the reciever starting at the sidewall seam, remember to install oval liners after you have aligned the liner with the shape of the pool, this will prevent any bunching or pleating.
Never install the liner seam over the skimmer of return cutouts. Top rails and verticals need to be installed per pool assembly instructions before filling with water. Once the liner is installed in the reciever and it is aligned correctly, remove any floor wrinkles by gently tapping along the bottom edge with a soft bristle broom, moving the material to the side of the pool wall. When satisfied with the fit, block off the skimmer opening with duct tape, if vacuuming in, and insert a vacuum hose through the return opening and seal off using duct tape. Make sure the vacuum hose has no sharp edges. Turn on the vacuum. In a short time, the liner will be drawn to the pool wall. If any wrinkles exist, turn the vacuum off and readjust the liner.
Turn the vacuum on once again and check for wrinkles, if satisfied, leave the vacuum running and begin filling with water. Fill the pool with 12 inches of water before turning the vacuum off. Remove the vacuum hose and continue filling the pool. Do not cut out any openings for the skimmer or return until at least 2 feet of water are in the pool. If not vacuuming in, begin filling the pool, working along the bottom sidewall edge and tapping with a soft bristle broom to remove any wrinkles, if wrinkles appear stop filling and work them toward the pool wall. Continue filling the pool to a water level of at least 2 feet before cutting any openings for the skimmer or returning.
Follow the pool installation guide to complete pool assembly. Please take the time to read and understand all the safety literature provided. Apply all safety decals and signs. The pool owner and installer must follow the installation and use directions for all provided safety signs and decals. Remember, warnings only help if you put them up.
Important! Above-ground pools are designed for swimming and wading only. Do not Dive or Jump! Misuse of your pool may result in crippling injury and/or other dangers to life and health. Do not use slides, diving boards, or any other platform or object that can be used for improper pool entry. Use only an above-ground swimming pool ladder to enter or exit your pool. It is the pool owner’s responsibility to secure the pool against unauthorized, unsupervised or unintentional entry. It is also the pool owner’s responsibility to warn all pool users of the hazards of diving into shallow water: paralyzing injury may result. Always obey all safety rules. Remember, pool safety is everybody’s responsibility.
