How To Replace an Above Ground Pool Liner 

Thanks! Great video. Installer wanted $1,100 to replace a 15 x 30 liner. This video makes it look simple enough!!!

Thanks for posting this video. I plan to replace the liner in our 24' x 54" pool and this was so helpful in my planning process. I had never heard of Wall Foam, but now I plan on adding it to my list.

Thank you so much for this informative video! I just removed and installed our new liner today and used all the steps and it looks great. Saved us 500 dollars and waiting weeks for someone to come out and do it.

Hi great video but I have a question. Why didn't you use a vacuum to suck the liner closer to the pool wall?

Great video. Thank you very much. Now feeling like I will tackle this on my own. Much appreciated!

Great video, well explained. Gotta do my 21 ft above ground this weekend. I checked out estimates on install, was given an estimate of 2k. Using my liner, I am no crackhead to know better😂😂, a six pack, with my wife and I am gonna try. Will update!. Thanks

Awesome video!! You guys did a great job! I'm a 1st time pool owner and this video will be very helpful if we ever have to change the liner. Thank you 😊

Great video helps a lot with the insulation.

very helpful

Thank you so much. My area of the country is booming and pool companies will only do new pool installs, and not maintenance work.

Right to the point ! I love that. Thanks!

Hey! I install above ground pool also and just a tip when you the lyner is installed put tape on the skimmer and put a shop vac in the return hole, this way the air will take the place of the water for the time the water raises, so impossible to have wrinkles! On a hot day you can also use your feet when the water has at least filled the surface of the pool to mimic the water weight and cut the skimmer and return earlier

What's the deal with wrinkles on the side wall? i'm replacing a liner and I feel like the previous liner was flat against the wall, but the one I see in this video has some wrinkles. do they work themselves out, or should I expect to remove some top caps and pull the liner a bit tighter in some places?

Well explained and.a really great video

I was worried about the side wrinkles, but other comments on here suggest that they work themselves out. Bottom wrinkles require draining the pool

the liner was twisted on the back side was it fixed?

Awesome video. Thank you.

Thank you so much your videos came in handy! I've never install a linner before the local pool guy was charging me $1700 with the liner and Amazon had it for $400 so I did it and I had left for my honeymoon!!@

Great work real pros !

Best video on you tube

Easy to follow instructions but is there any reasons why the air wasn't sucked out? There´s a lot of wrinkles left on the side of the liner.

regarding liner pad floor guard...my instructions say install pad first then cove. You installed cove first. Any reason? Thanks

U guys rock thanx for the video

For some reason I had thought you normally didn't install the top rim until later so you could pull wrinkles out of the sides..... We are having issues with the pool liner being pulled up and almost over the top and maybe not putting the ring on is why? The bottom isn't exactly level (old pool someone else installed years ago)

Great job,

What happens with the slack in the liner?

dont forget the gaskets for the skimmer and the return

How long did it take yall for this because I have to help my dad and the pool is medium sized it’s 4 ft deep but idk how wide

What do you do about drains in the bottom of your pool?

Where to buy this pool

Why did you not pull the wrinkles out. Will the water displace them? Won’t you have what looks like seems in your pool if they aren’t pulled tight?

What model pool was that? I have a pool that looks exactly the same that I need some spare parts for.

Nice

Do you put silicone on the screws when putting the s rews back in for the water return?

I've heard that a pool will collapse AS it is drained!!--- Is this true? What precautions can we take to prevent this? Our pool is an above-ground, 33 footer! 😳

Can you use a shop vac to get wrinkles out of walls? Also, do I need to remove my plastic fence thats bolted to outside of pool walls?

Do you guys carry aqua leader top caps?

Does this work the same way with an oval pool, with a cat walk?

good vid

I see that this took two men I guess a couple of hours to do this. Do you feel that this is really possible or do you just call a professional in? I want to do this because I can’t get any pool company to replace my liner for me. They won’t touch it because they didn’t install it.

What gel/sealant did you put under the screws when you reassembled everything? I see it coming out of the holes.

use a shopvac inserted in the skimmer hole to pull the liner in a vacuum and there is no need to jump around on the liner to pull wrinkles out.

what do I need to buy? to winterize my pool so that the water levels remain high

Why wouldn't you vacuum the wrinkles out?

What about sucking out the air behind liner??????.....not necessary????

can you dig 8 inches in the middle? Will it stretch me thinking yes.? Thanks

So no caulking around the skimmeror anything like that?

Yes I have a question why does the liner looks lose and thank you for showing me how to do it

How do you get the wrinkles out of the wall?

need someone to do this for us in San Diego

Are the wrinkles by the skimmer acceptable?

for how big of a company you guys are I'd imagine you guys would have had installers that knew how to put up liners.. look how loose that liner is and how many wrinkles it has.. They didn't even use a shop vac until it got about 3-4 inches deep.. Ive never seen a liner that loose around the skimmer while water is halfway up

OK. Now how do I get out of the pool once I fitted the new liner and before filling it? I'm afraid of using a stepladder for fear of putting a hole i the new liner. ;)

I just had a brand new pool installed. My base was 7/8" compacted aggregate the pool company never put down no sand over top of the aggregate, nor did they use a pool cove. They put peat moss on top of the aggregate then installed the pool liner. We went into the pool and we could feel all of these dips plus sharp areas where we walked around the pool. I'm presuming our brand new pool now has to be disassembled and redone properly. I've order a ground cover and pool coving. I'm also going to order Mason sand and put it down prior to putting down the pool padding. Are you able to tell me how much sand I would need for a 18' round above ground pool? How hard is it going to be to realign the liner with the skimmer? Thanks I would appreciate any answers you can give me. I'm still waiting to see if the pool company is going to take it apart and reassemble it properly.

I was given. 28 foot above ground pool. I disassembled the pool my self and now when I am.putting it back together at my house there seems to be not enough liner. It's like the liner was made for a 26 foot diameter pool not a 28 foot. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Primero se pone el gorila pack y después los cove que queden arriba eso está malo

FYI, think ahead of time. Where I live, thunderstorms pop up randomly. I don't have time to drain the pool and wait around for the remaining water to evaporate. And it's unbelievably hard to get all of the water out using the pump, the siphon trick, and even a wet vac. After messing with it for over half a day, I just cut the liner at the bottom, but with the coves and plastic floor in place, that water doesn't go anywhere. So then I spent another 3 hours cleaning up a mess, and the ground is saturated under the plastic flooring. It's been the biggest nightmare. Get yourself a pump that can get every bit of water out if you have a tight deadline.

Who keep saying good job? The wall was full of wrinkles and they reused the old Gaskets. D+ for the install.

Lesson. Get an in-ground pool.

So many wrongs in this video...
