EARTH MOUND 

Build earth mound on top of wall guard using screened 
damp earth or pre-washed sand.  Shape and compact earth 
mound to run 8" up from ground and 8" away from the wall. 

Do not use any material that will compress under 
pressure for the earth mound is an important part 
of the pool installation. It prevents the wall from 
lifting up and the liner from sneaking underneath 
the pool wall. Spread the remaining sand equally 
across the bottom of the pool. This will give you 
a 2“ to 3” sand base. 

Manufacturer cannot assume 

responsibility of the performance 
of this product if the earth mound 
is omitted or not properly installed.

DANGER

 DO NOT USE ANY MATERIAL THAT 

WILL COMPRESS UNDER PRESSURE 

FOR THE EARTH MOUND. 

SEE INSTRUCTIONS TO LEFT. 

Wall guard is optional. 

Tape wall guard (plastic sheeting) to pool wall 12" up from 
ground and smooth out on ground 12" from wall.  This will 
protect your pools metal parts from chemical reactions with 
the soil used in the earth mound. 
Several  commercial products can also be used in place of 
earth mound. Consult your professional pool dealer. 

Once the wall is closed and screws and nuts are 
tightened securely, cover the screw heads on the 
inside of the pool with 3 layers of cloth tape all the way
