Exapandable Pool Liner For Round Pool

by Matt
(Houston,TX)

If I buy an expandable pool liner for a 33' round pool can I install it in a 30' round pool and dig the deep end deeper than 7 feet?

Thanks, Matt



Hi Matt. I would strongly recommend not doing this. The extra depth you are digging down will not take care of the extra liner you will be left with around the sides of the pool. The side wall area, inside the pool, will be nothing but wrinkles. These wrinkles are hard to keep clean and will cause the liner to rip, or tear, prematurely.

Going down to 7' is not a problem as long as the liner is stretched in on a warm day in full sun. I would, however, buy a liner the correct size for the pool.

Expandable Liner for 18X36 Pool

Hello, I love this site! Lots of great info. We are getting a used Lomart 18X36 above ground pool.

I have been looking for a new liner and am interested in setting the pool up with a deep end. Most of what I see for the expandable liners only offer 18X33.

Some go no bigger, others have ones that are much longer than 36'. Is it possible to use a 33'? If not, am I stuck with a single depth pool? Thanks for your help!

Hi Kip. It is extremely important to have the correct size liner, so I would go with a flat bottom before I would buy a liner knowing it was the wrong size for my pool.

I was, however, able to find your size liner available in an expandable size at pools.com.

Hope that helps.
