We have wrinkles in our above ground swimming pool liner?

Question

Is there anything we can do for this? Will it ruin our pool?

Answer 1

If there's water in there, there's nothing you can do. I'm assuming you just filled up a new pool and didn't push the wrinkles out. Kinda important to do that before you have more than  1/4 inch of water in there. If this is a brand new liner and you have wrinkles that have a sharp ridge on them and you eventually plan on using an automatic cleaner, it's worth the time and effort to drain that pool, push the wrinkles out in conjunction to using a liner vac and fill slowly, watching for any further wrinkles to show. Pounce on them immediately. Once you have an inch of water in there...that's it, no need to keep watching for bottom wrinkles, just make sure that the liner on the wall has to stretch a bit and no wrinkle will form there.

The reasons you may want to do all this are twofold:

1/ A sharp ridge wrinkle and an automatic cleaner do NOT get along. The cleaner will eventually wear a hole in your liner on that ridge.

2/ Wrinkles are unsightly. Makes it look like the installation was sloppy.
