In Canada Inground liners are called 30 mil. The standard, much like a 2X4 peice of wood, is cheated to 28 mil but some manufacturers cheat more, 27 mil isn't uncommon and in some cases I've seen 25 mil. In the US most ingorund is sold as 20 mil and is actually 20 with little cheating (from what I know but I'm in Canada)

Abovegound is worse. It's called 20 mil, some label the liners with their warenty (at 25 years) but make it sound like that's the thickness. What most liners are is actually a max of 16 mil. It's been a long time since I've seen one thicker then that. A lot of liners are 14 mil, I've seen imported liners as low as 12 mil sold as 20.

When trying to compare aboveground liners, the easiest was to compare is to ask the weight of the liner.

How much pool liner do you allow at top for overlap pools?

That normally depends on where you are getting the liner from, but in most cases, you measure the pool diameter and actual pool wall height. When you order the liner, let the liner manufacturer know the liner is for an above-ground pool with an overlap liner. The liner manufacturer will then make the pool wall enough longer to allow several inches of liner material to fold over the top of the pool wall and anchor it in place with the liner locking strips.

How do different color liners affect blueness of pool water?

The pool water draws its color from the liner. If you buy a white liner, then the pool water will not be blue. If you use a light blue liner, then the pool will be light blue. In my opinion, the best liner is a darker blue liner with ripples on it. Your pool will look gorgeous and inviting and the ripple effect makes it difficult to see any dirt in your pool. A solid color liner lets you see everything, which isn't always pretty.


Is there any products to use to prolong the life of my pool liner?

There are a number of products you can use to prolong the life of your pool.

You could purchase a liner pad or pool padding for the bottom of your pool. And you can invest in vinyl liner repair kits to repair the small punctures and prolong the life of your liner.
