Excavate the hole for the liner to the required shape.The sides should be made sloping inwards rather than vertical,cut out deep(45cm minimum and for the shallow 25cm approx) for the water area.Also make sure that the excavation is carefully levelled around the top edge so it can be concelled with the finishing edge. Remove any sharpe stones or roots and spread a good layer of sand over the base of the pool. We stongly suggest that an underlay is used with a minimum weight of 250g to protect the liner.DO NOT drag the liner into position but unfold it carefully as sharpe stones may cut it. Anchor the edge of the liner with smooth sided rocks or bricks,taking care that they are evenly distributed. Gradually run a little water into the pool,pleating and tucking the liner into shape as necessary to give a neat finish. At firts the liner will stretch,then as the volume of water increases the liner will move inwards to the shape of the side. Fill completely with water.Check alll round for close fitting.Trim off surplas material with sissors allowing sufficient overlap around the pool perimeter for anchorage. Finish the edges of the pool with paving slabs, allowing an overhang.If prefered use grass turf to place over the edge of the liner so that they touch the water |
