IG vinyl liner pulling away from wall

Hi Duraleigh,
Janice stated above that her IG pool liner is pulling away....
My friends pool also is an IG, mine's an AG.

Thanks, Matt,

I am enrolling in a remedial reading course today!!! That's the second post I've completely misread today!!

I am absolutely, 100% positive my advancing age
has NOTHING to do with it

Hey, no worries, I get days like that too, think the "senior member" rating has anything to do with it????

Had the same damn thing happen in two spots in my 20x40 IG pool this year. I too used the flood behind the liner approach but could not float it enough as the pool is full - this works better if the water level is low. So, I got out the hair dryer and heated the liner (carefully) to allow it to stretch and got it back in the track with no problem.

BTW when my pool was built the builder did a very smart thing, he build a drywell sump under the deep end of the pool and connected into the return lines to the circulating pump. The line is normally valved out. When we get very heavy rains this allows me to open the valve (closing the valves from the pool) and use the circulating pump to pump the water out from under the pool to waste. This also works when you put water behind the liner for this sort of problem.
