Liner stretch....

Notice one area that line has stretched and needs to be put back in the track. I tried pulling up, but no go, not even a budge. What's the trick?

Any tips? Thanks

First of all, make sure there is nothing in the liner track that will prevent you from getting the liner in properly. Then you want to wait for a nice warm day and then get some almost boiling water. Slowly pour the hot water on the liner to make it more pliable. Only do a foot or so at a time. Be careful not to melt the liner. Once the liner is more stretchy, pull it up and into the track. Once you've got a few inches in there, pour cold water onto the section to cool it down and reduce its stretchiness. If the problem continues, get yourself some T-Bead or Liner-Lock from a pool store and insert it as soon as you get the liner into the track. You can also use a hair dryer for heating the liner.

The warm water trick works, but sometimes you can generate enough heat by rubbing your hand on the liner to make a small stretch.

Cool! Thanks guys.

Since the water temp in the pool right now is 60, and the water level is up. I think I will wait about 2 weeks to hope the water drops about and inch or so. Then try the boiling water.

Also saw on a site that you can use a hair dryer or heat gun. Which I have both. But boiling water on the liner seems to be more safer idea.


%% Also I think I will add a strip of liner-lock to it, since its came out of track last year.

Thanks all!!
