LINERS
==========
Q – What is a unibead pool liner?
A – A unibead liner is a 2 in 1 liner. Gives you ther option to use the liner as a beaded
liner which requires a bead receiver or as a J-Hook liner which just hooks onto wall
of pool
==============================================
Q – Which side of a plain blue liner goes up facing the water, smooth shiny side or dull textured side?
A – There is no wrong or right way, it is up to customer preference. We suggest shiny
side up for the textured side tends to collect more dirt and debris.
==============================================
Q – Is the flap where the seam is suppose to be up or down?
A – Depending on which side you install (shiny or dull), the flap may be facing up. This
flap can be trimmed and must be done very carefully for if it is cut during trimming
the warranty will be voided.
==============================================
Q – Why do I have grass growing through the bottom of the liner and is this covered under warranty?
A – This is not covered under warranty. The earth underneath the pool liner was not
properly taken care of before installation, thus causing sharp blades of grass to grow
beneath the liner surface and poke through. Weed killer can be used but must be checked to make sure that it will not affect the liner in any way. A gorilla pad is and excellent product to prevent this problem
==============================================
Q – How can I find a leak in my liner?
A – Take some food coloring and go to where you think there might be a leak, if so the
food coloring will be drawn to it.
==============================================
Q – Why do I have too much or too little left over when installing a beaded or unibead liner?
A – We suggest you center the liner as well as possible and insert the bead at 4 points first.
For example:
North, South, East and West ends of the pool.
Then insert the bead in between these points to get the best possible fit.

needed.
