I've owned an in-ground vinyl pool for many years. I have used several pool companies over the years. Each pool person I have talked to recommends draining no more than half the water at any time. This is something that is typically done for the winterization process. It was explained to me that the weight and pressure of the water in the pool provides structural integrity, preventing any chance of the walls collapsing.
On the other hand, there are times when you need to completely drain a pool because the water just has too many dissolved solids in it after years of chemicals, or sometimes, a pernicious algae condition can only be solved by draining the pool, scrubbing it down, and refilling with fresh water.
If you need to drain a pool completely and refill it, the whole process should be completed as quickly as possible. I don't think, given all the variables, how specific I can be, but personally, I wouldn't want to see my pool without water for longer than 24 hours.
New HeadlineOnce filled and used, you do not want to drain an in ground vinyl lined pool. I made this mistake once and recently saw my neighbor make the same mistake on a two year old liner. Over time the liner seems to become less pliable and when the pool is drained the liner contracts. When you refill the pool the liner does not expand to the previous shape and often rips. This is an expensive error.Inground vinyl is better, their is less exposed part to the oxigene, therefore, last longer.
If you have water behind your vinyl in ground pool liner, you should first lower the water in the pool to normal levels if it is over-filled. Make sure that the vacuum pipe is clear, unclog it if it is not. Once it is unblocked let the water from behind the liner flow out.
Cannot be answered without further information. What is the adhesive? Are you under water or dry? Is it a tile or marcite surface? Please asvise
yellowing in vinyl usually means the plasticizes in the product have reacted to something ie. water or solvent. this yellowing can not be removed sorry.
Reverse osmosis water filter systems filter water safely by forcing water through a membrane by means of pressure. This ensures that only water is removed from tap water, and all the excess minerals are filtered out.
The liner should not float at all. The pressure or weight of the water is what holds it down. There has to be either a leak where water is getting under or behind it or maybe ground water is forcing it up. This is sometimesa problem in the southern states where the water table is closer to the ground surface.
If your pool has been filled with water, The wrinkles will not come out. And I do not understand the other part of the question.could you be more specific it does not sound correct that there be a gap at waterline.
How big is the star dust inground swimming pool.
yes it can be saved. You will have to put points in the ground and rent a diaphragm pump or buy one and dewater the pool. Most instances the diaphragm pump has to run while the liner is being put in because if you turn it off and you have a high water table in ur area, any water it sucked out of ur pool will begin to fill up again.
You can probably find the plumbing to step down to the right size but the pool pump will have more water flow then a garden hose can safely handle. Your going to ruin either the pump or yourself.
Hum, just what are you gonna use to color vinyl either under water or out of water???? NO.
Vinyl records are waterproof - I wash mine with water - but the labels are not waterproof.
