Liner For Deep End Pool

I was given an 18' X 36' pool that is 4' on the shallow end and 7' on the deep end, Doughboy pool. I have not the first clue about what kind of liner to buy or how to install one. Any suggestions would be great.

All I have been able to find online is that they cost about $600 but it didn't specify about the different depth ends.



Hi Kayla. I would try to find a Doughboy brand liner in that size if you are going to do the deep end. A Doughboy liner will go down about 2 1/2 foot. Just because a pool once had a deep area does not mean you have to set it back up that way again. It can be set up flat bottom or with a smaller deep area if you want.

Flat bottom liners are much cheaper and easier to install. If you don’t really need the deep end you might consider that.

Doughboy liners have to be bought through a Doughboy distributor and are more expensive than other liners, but they are well worth it, especially if you are doing the deep end. Doughboy liners stretch into a deep area much better than any other liner on the market.



Here are a couple of pages with installation information.
