Today was the day to remove the old liner ...
that became brittle without water in it ...
Mike cleaned our the bottom of the pool ... smoothed out the sand ... and placed
a new protective liner on the bottom ... to help with heat loss as well ...
We decided that we would insulate the walls as well ...
and place a Styrofoam cove along the bottom edge ... instead of the sand ...
for a smooth transition from the bottom up the wall for the liner ...
Started to secure the liner in place along the ridge ...
with 3ft long press - on above ground copings ...
one section at a time ...
Once we were finished ...
the hose was place inside ... to let the water trickle in ...
until the bottom was covered ...
We will smooth out the wrinkles in the liner ...
before filling it up completely ...
We sure could have gone for a dip today ...
it was 34 degrees in the backyard ... !!!!
I bet you would of been glad to take a dip after all that hard work..now it will be good for another 10 years..I know you will enjoy it all summer long..great job!
