Just installed new above ground by myself

@ AnnaK: Thanks Anna, I guess I need to just stop worrying about it. If it does get out of level I guess I will just re-install it the correct way, i've put it up once, I guess I can put it up again. My hand vacuum wont stay on the floor when I push it across the pool floor. It keeps wanting to flip up at the swivel by the end of the handle. It seems to do a good job but I more less have to push it down and around the pool at the same time. Thanks for your help it is greatly appreciated.

@ Watermom: Thanks Watermom, I will check these out, I was just wanting to get one that does well when the pool floor isnt completely free of dips and depressions.

@ BigDave: Big Dave I am guessing if it picks up sticks it will pick up dirt in the depressions of my pool floor.

====================================

Thank you all for your response. I will look into your suggestions. This is a great site.

Is your hand vac made for AGPs? Is it triangular? The ones I have are weighted and very well behaved. My favourite is the one I bought at ACE Hardware. It has an almost clear plastic top and I can see the vacuum action as it sucks up dust and tree flowers. It really is sort of a Zen experience, vacuuming the pool

Watched them put up our AG pool several years ago and the installers dig out the high side to be the same as the low side and the equipment has a laser level. Pretty neat. Then they hand dug places for concrete blocks, and checked the level of those in reference to each other. However my back yard has a slope to it! I have always heard that it should be within 1" level.
