Power Washing an IG Pool???

[wetshoes1]

I owned the house for 6 yrs & never opened up the pool (hard to believe!).

How much is the powerwashing vs. a new liner? After six years of algae, etc. in the pool, I wonder if they are not giving you an optimistic estimate of a 50% chance of a favorable outcome. I personally would use the money for a new liner, as I think it will be very difficult to drain the pool and remove the stains without causing significant damage. I have to admit, though, I have never heard of powerwashing a vinyl liner.

I think the first step is to check if the liner will even come clean.

Try scrubbing a section a foot or so down and see if the crud comes off.

If it does, then it might be worth trying to clear the water and see if you can brush the liner clean. A smaller investment before you commit to liner replacement.
