    Your pool looks great! Thanks for sharing pics. Also, thanks for the info about how your installer did the liner. That is what makes this forum great -- lots of pool owners sharing!

    Wow. You got the attachment system to work. Even I haven't figured out how to do that, yet. (Not that I'm going to put much effort in it -- vBulletin (the forum software) loses all the attachments every time I upgrade!)

    Attaching photos is NOT very intuitive, but it does work if you persist. Will be adding more photos tomorrow. (I guess it's already tomorrow, now-- I just got up to turn off the fill water-- 3AM!) Anyway... Pool is now full and I'm working on balancing/testing. Everybody in the family wants to get in!

    You're going to love that pattern--my walls/floor are the same, and it just makes the water sparkle. Enjoy!!

    Cool Re: liner change - new water

    Here are the final pics... you can see how well the liner fits... almost looks sprayed on, the walls it fits so smoothly. The last pic is the pool filled up all the way.

    FC 4
    CC 0
    PH 7.6
    TA 110
    CYA added enough to get to 40-50... have not tested yet
    Salt approx. 2150 ppm, added 4-- 40 lb. bags will test again today, added the 4th bag last night to get to that level. No... I don't use a salt water chlorine generator, I just like the way the addition of salt makes the water feel!

    Am checking the chorine 3X per day for now til the cya level comes up.

    Thanks to Ben and the forum... this new fill was easy to balance immediatly based on what I learned here. My goal is no algae... EVER in this pool!
