Troubleshooting Your Swimming Pool Liner Installation

Troubleshooting Your Swimming Pool Liner Installation

Do not cut your liner until it is 100% set!!!

If need be (when you have too many wrinkles), pull the replacement pool liner out of track and let it lay in the bottom to contract over night when no sun is hitting the vinyl liner.

    1. Remove any and ALL water from the pool, that means ALL of it.
    2. Check the pool liner position and reset it if needed, that means taking it out of the track and starting over.
    3. Install 2 large shop vacs opposite each other on the long walls of the pool. *2 shop vacs will provide added suction.
    4. Make sure the vinyl liner is sealed and no air can get behind the pool liner, (typically you can duct tape the liner to the vac hose so there is no loss of suction) turn vacs on.
    5. After vacs are turned on, make sure again that you have no loss of suction from any opening.
    6. Walk in the pool and take a broom and push the pool liner where needed, to see if wrinkles will go away. Try and work any wrinkles out towards to the wall of the pool.
    7. Once you have worked out all the wrinkles, start adding the water back in.
    8. Baby sit & check every hour, no more than 2 hours to keep everything going smoothly
    9. Once you have 3”-6” of water in the shallow end, you may begin cutting in your pool steps.
    10. Once the water is deep enough that the replacement pool liner is flat against the wall panels, you may cut in the skimmers, lights, and returns out.
