What you MUST know before you install a new pool liner

- From www.swimmingpoo... - Before you proceed with installing a new vinyl liner in your pool there are 3 critically important things that you need to inspect first - the plumbing system, the skimmer, and coping track.
Interesting video, having owned an inground pool repair business now for 35 years I agree with most of what you've said but not all. Generally we include a pressure test along with doing the liner, this allows us to also pressure test the main drain as well without having a diver. Totally agree with replacing coping if needed as well as skimmers, returns and steps because it's just easier to do along with the liner. We have changed many skimmers however and saved the existing liner but it's a technical job and you can't leave things for long or the vinyl shifts and the holes might not line up. Pipes however can almost always be done after the fact. I guess what it comes down to is if the customer is losing water or not, if the liner is obviously leaking or over 15 years old we often start there and also check everything else when we do the liner. I do agree there's a lot of fly by night types out there that just want to make a quick buck and don't bring really important things to the customer's attention and yes, that sucks (especially when plastic coping or steps are broken)
Do you recommend top mount liner track or face mount track? Looking to install pavers on top. Thanks!
Thank you so much! About to embark on this endeavor and had not considered most of these potential pitfalls. Really appreciate what a straight-shooter you are, thanks for making this video 😊
Also, love the Dickies bro!
Having ours replaced today and watched your video, thank you so much. I feel more informed and at least I know the right questions to ask.
How did it turn out? How big is your pool? What did it cost if you don't mind me asking? Satisfied with the install? Going to do ours soon
Thank you for this video. I'm in a situation with an old inground 16x32 pool that badly needs a new liner, and you addressed issues that are key to making some decisions. I've been told the skimmer should be replaced (at $1500 in Ontario, Canada) and will now made sure a pressure test is done before committing to it. I was also wondering about the coping and thanks to your video I know to ensure it's aluminum before going ahead.
I find most pool companies pretty shady.
question i hv metal above the concert i need the plastic pieces that go between the spaces
Why does a pressure test need to be done before a new liner? What does the liner have to do with plumbing? Cant you just fix it without damaging a new liner?
Come do my liner Steve! Near Chattanooga.I subscribed so you cant say no!
I am on the Chattanooga express!
@@Swimmingpoolsteve I'll book you a room at the Chattanooga Choo Choo!
What about expanding the joints during a pressure test? Can't this create a leak?
I have a question
That’s using the old noodle 🧠
The pool guys installing my new liner says that my pool cooping isn't replaceable, they're are say this because it's adhered into the edge of my concrete. Is this true?
Your concrete pool deck is poured and integrated into the coping. It can be replaced, but at a significant cost.
@@EagleKeeper86 so the cooping is only replaceable by replacing tge while concrete pool deck then correct ? And there's no aftermarket replacement/over the top cooping ?
@@charliechilders7786 that’s typically how it’s done, I’m not aware of another method. Unless there’s a low profile coping that could fasten to the pool wall beneath the original coping.
Cement lock coping is replaceable however, it also requires replacing the cement because it's poured into the bullnose of it. In those instances sometimes a face mount aluminum tracking (extrusion) can be installed from inside the pool to hold the liner securely. If your coping is aluminum and not broken but just looks old painting it is a great option.
I wish you would add some pictures of actual pools to your videos or even graphics to reference.
