Doughboy 16 x 40 Liner

We have purchased a used Doughboy above ground oval pool and told it was a 15x30, however, after just getting it put up it measures a 16x40.

We are unable to find a liner to fit, all dealers say they have never heard of a 16x40 oval (oblong) pool. What should we do now?

While searching online I ran across a company called the pool center and called , the man said they did offer a 16x40 standard overlap liner that would work as long as we had not dug to make it deeper than standard ex (a 7ft end) or anything. The price is about 460.00. Will this work? Appreciate any advice. Thanks




Hi. Doughboy does make a 16' x 40' pool and they also make replacement liners for this size pool. Most manufactures use 15' wide as a standard width for oval pools and that is why 16' wide oval liners are very hard to find. Doughboy used 16' as their standard oval width on their most popular oval sizes. They have a 16' x 24', a 16' x 32' and a 16' x 40'. So it is not surprising you are having trouble finding that size.

The Doughboy UD 20 mil replacement liner is, in my opinion, the best liner made. Before I would buy an off brand I would find a Doughboy dealer and compare prices.

Either from a Doughboy dealer, or from another company, a 16' x 40' liner is what you need and any brand should work just fine.

The photo show my preferred way of installing overlap liners, especially Doughboy liners.

Be sure to have a look at my liner pages before attempting the installation.
