    If you don't want or need to replace the liner, you can drain it down till there's 6" to 1' in the SHALLOWEST part of the pool. This will keep the liner in place so you can save it. If you are draining for a water problem, this is best. If you have a liner problem, you can repair most leaks this way--you can even repair leaks underwater with most vinyl patching kits. Plus, in 6" of water, it's MUCH easier to patch the bottom than in 4' of water...don't ask me how I know....
