Choosing a Pool Liner
5 Tips for picking a vinyl liner you'll love for years
1. Go with a thicker material to prevent holes and tearing
A thinner liner may cost less in the beginning, but a thicker liner will save you money in the long run by adding years to the liner's lifespan. We recommend 27 mil vinyl on the floor and walls.
2. Consider what color the pattern will fade to
All liners naturally fade over time. The color of the back of the vinyl is a good indication of what your liner will look like several years after it is installed.
3. Think about the shade
Dark colored liners hide dirt better and attract more heat than lighter liners. However, lighter colored liners make the water sparkle and make it easier to find items lost in the pool.
4. Know what you want from the texture
A wave pattern will make you feel like you're swimming in the ocean while a tile pattern is made to make you feel like you're swimming in a tile pool. Some patterns are designed to make your pool look coated in natural stones.
5. Choose something you love
All liners are made to look great both above and below water, so don't let the decision stress you out. At the end of the day, it's your pool and you're going to be the one using it the most. Pick a pattern you'll enjoy looking at for years and years.
