INSTALLING THE LINER
It is essential that shoes are removed for
the next stage. Hopefully you have read
the Recommendations for Storage section
at the front of this booklet and have kept
your liner in a warm environment. If you
haven’t, we strongly recommend you do
so, for a good period so that the liner
feels relatively warm and supple. A cold
liner is much harder to install, and you
may not be able to remove creases in the
liner. Before fitting make sure any fittings
such as inlets skimmers and lights have
gaskets in place and screws in the N, S,
E, W positions as explained previously.
Unfold the liner and lay it to suit the shape
of the floor. At one position on the wall of
the liner, there is a welded seam. Ensure
this doesn’t run through with a skimmer. If
it does, rotate the liner.
Once unfolded line up the floor corners of
the liner with the floor corners of the pool
structure.
NOTE:
the pool liner will have been made
smaller than the structure, and the weight
of the water stretches it into position.
Starting at a corner, take one of the walls
and feed it into the liner-lock. When you
release it, the weight of the liner holds it in
position.
