Pool Liner

[pool]

My pool liner has come away slightly at 2 corners. Although I have attempted to pull it back I have been unable to do so.

Does anyone know whether there is a tool or can recommend an approach that works???

Thanks

Hi,
I am assuming your pool is an inground pool with 6" radius corners. If this is the case, I would recommend dropping the water level by around 12", so turn off any skimmers, and run pool on sumps.

Then get hot water from your tap, not kettle, and pour a bucket load over the liner in the corner. This should have the effect of making the liner more pliable, and therefore easier to insert back into the liner lock.

If the liner is close, but not quite into the liner lock track, you could try lowering the pool water by a further 12" to allow more of the material to stretch, this will give you enough excess to fit the liner back into the track.

Just a word of warning, don't use a heat gun or hair drier, don't use boiling water from a kettle, don't have sharp nails, rings or watch strap that could tear the liner. If the liner is under 5 years old I would assume it will go back in easily, but if the liner is old and brittle, it may be beyond saving.

Hope this helps

I would like to see the before & after shots if you could post them on the forum, for the other members to see.

All the best
