. Patio Stones (Optional)-Round Section
a) Concrete patio stones may be placed at the base of each
upright of your pool. (Image 3.7)
b) Each bottom plate will show the location for a patio stone.
Make a mark in the ground at each base plate.
c) Remove the bottom rails and bottom plates and lay out
the patio stones around the circle where the bottom
plates were.
d) The patio stones must be sunk into the ground so the tops
are flush with the soil around them. Use the carpenter’s level to
make sure the patio stones are perfectly level and flush with the
ground. Use either the
carpenter’s level and a 2-by-4 (5cm x 10cm) wood plank, or the
optical level between patio stones to make sure the stones are
level with each other.

e) Do not install blocks or rails on loose sifted soil or sand. There
must be no space between the ground and the bottom of the
rails. All patio blocks must be flush with the ground, solid and
level with each other in all directions.
NOTE: Installing patio blocks is optional and the blocks may
shift due to temperature changes.

Spread brick sand or sheets of styrofoam out over the entire
pool foundation area inside the base rails. This provides a pro-
tective surface for the pool liner to rest on.

. Spread out Brick Sand
a) Make sure any screw or bolt heads that are to be covered
with sand or styrofoam are covered with duct tape first.
b) Fill in all of the trenches completely with crushed
limestone.
c) Spread a layer of fine brick sand (no pebbles) over the foun -
dation area, 2” (5 cm) deep. Use a rake to make the brick sand
flat and smooth. Instead of brick sand, you can use 1” or 1-1/2”
(25 or 38 mm) thick sheets of styrofoam. Cut the sheets to fit.
Remove the Styrofoam until the wall is installed. Reinstall the
styrofoam sheets and join them with duct tape along the whole
length of each seam. Remember to wait until the pool wall has
been installed before installing the Styrofoam.
