LINER INSTALLATION/ASSEMBLY:
We recommend unpacking and unrolling the liner
one day before assembly. In this way, wrinkles from
transport are avoided. Handle the liner with utmost
care (never walk on it with shoes, do not drag/pull
over the floor, etc.). The manufacturer does not
assume liability for any mechanical damage that
occurs during assembly. Please also pay attention
to the possible presence of metal chips and residual
dirt, and remove these completely before assembling
the liner.
Please note that the PVC liner of your swimming
pool is made undersized, so there will be no wrinkles
inside the pool later. The liner must therefore be
installed at an outside temperature of about 20 to 25°,
since it is at this temperature that it is most expansible
and flexible. The liner must never be placed without
floor protection fleece (felt mats), never directly on
polystyrene or other materials, as these may cause
irreparable damage to the liner, for example due to
the removal of plasticizers.
Since the liner is always slightly smaller than the
pool, it is partly necessary to pull the liner with force
to hook it in.Since the liner is always slightly smaller
than the pool, it is partly necessary to pull the liner
with force to hook it in. Do not be afraid to pull it, the
liner has a stretching capacity of over 10%.
First put the liner in the middle of the pool and then
unfold it. In case of figure-8 shaped and oval pools,
begin assembling the liner in the middle and slowly
work your way to both outer sides of the pool. Pay
attention to the vertical liner weld; it must never be in
the area/at the level of components (skimmer, inlet
nozzle, etc.), as otherwise it would not seal properly
at this point.
The liner is now hooked to the top of the steel wall
with the help of the J-bead (this is a reinforcement
bead welded to the top edge of the liner). You can
temporarily fix the liner, for example with clothes
pegs, while you are still aligning it.
At first, fill only the basin only with about 1 to 2 cm
water. After the liner has been installed on the outer
steel wall, check if the water level has increased
evenly everywhere. If this is not the case, the pool
is sloping and it is necessary to adapt/correct the
foundation/subsoil (check this once again when the
pool is completely/partly filled, the soil may partially
settle under the weight of the water).
Next align the liner and push all remaining wrinkles
outwards towards the steel wall. Note that wrinkles
can only be removed if there is a maximum of 3-5 cm
of water in the pool; with a higher level it is no longer
possible to remove wrinkles due to the pressure of
the water.
Use only tap water and never use well water (to avoid
problems with the water quality/brown water).
