    Angry need help liner has pulled out two sections filling

    I have turned the hoses off and going to go get some metal type clothespins and see if i can get it back up. Any helpful hints on how to fix this without draining? there is about 6-8" of water in the pool.
    thanks for the help

    we'll i ended up draning the water and putting that side back up. left two of the side rails off and used about 20 black big clothspins to hold it and have about 4 inches of water in but i have now turned it off b/c it is cloudy now. Hopefully tomorrow is sunning and when i come home from lunch i'll turn the water back on.

    Good idea Jimmy. Liners work so much better with high sun. Hope all goes well. Keep us posted.

    ok went home at lunch and turned the water back on it is sunny today and i'm in south Louisiana. getting a little bummed though read on the internet about how other people with "swimline" liners have had problems with stretching and the seams not being the right length.

    Yikes ! I hope not. My liner is a Swimline. It seems very tight on the high sidewalls. Bottom seemed okay. Haven't swapped out the old leaking liner yet.

    Keep us posted on how your fill goes.

    It's really not a big issue. Pool liners seldom fit a pool perfectly. But they can all be stretched in. Just let the sun work for you.
