Personally, I would have a professional change my liner. The liner needs to be stretched smooth, the water added slowly while adjusting the liner, and the temperature should be at least 60 degrees or higher. If the pool is large, it will require more than one person. It may require up to 6 people working at the same time. Pay the money and have the pros do it. They can complete it in one day. Hope this helps!
