New pool installation

[TonyA.]

I just had my AGP installed(Cornelius Hartley Pool), they had to dig a 13 inch hole on one side to level the ground. The pool installer said it was okay to back fill with dirt just don't pack it down. Pool has a resin base and steel walls. Just wanted to see is I should be concerned with haveing dirt touch the wall.

Thanks

Dirt will rust steel, unless you are in very dry area. It's possible to put some pretty durable coatings on steel, but that's not as common on AG pools. I'd call the pool mfg before burying a pool wall section.
