| you should consider the foam siding that goes in against the walls before you install the liner. it cost a bit extra but if you get a hole in the out side metal it could save your pool liner. I have had a lot of experiance with this type of above ground pool. make sure you sit it ontop of cement. also bevel the sand at the bottom where the floor meets the walls other wise your kids or drunk friend might accedintaly put there big fat toe through the liner . consider putting some kind of dome netting over the top to keep the leafs out and provide some shade. stay ontop of the chemicals during the rainy season or it will turn -green -green -green and the only way to get it off the liner is to -scrub -scrub -scrub |
