9.1 Ensure the supplied 3/8” x 15” rebar (#77001) is
inserted halfway into the ground through every bottom
plate hole around the perimeter of the pool. Also insert
two lengths of rebar through the hole on the step A-frame
support assembly from step 5.5. If extra supports are
required for patio or other pool features, consider
installing them before pouring the concrete.
Note
– Ensure the pool is level and square before
pouring concrete!
9.2 A concrete collar is required on all INGROUND pools.
Pour a 8” high by 12” wide concrete collar around the
perimeter of the pool. Pour concrete foundation around
the backside of the step. See page 40 for recommended
quantities.
Note: Do not fill with water until concrete has cured.
