Soft Side Frame Pool Unlevel

We installed an above ground 18'x52" pool yesterday. When we prepared the ground it was level. After filling it with water it seems that the lower side that we raised is still lower.

The water on the low side is about 2-3 inches deeper than at the other end. Will this be okay??? Should I do something??



Hi Sarah. The pool will probably be just fine if it is not perfectly level. This is something I would probably fix during the off season when the pool is not being used. You would be a lot happier with a level pool, they look nicer and tend to be safer and last longer.

You may also want to check your pool instruction booklet and see how much variance in level they allow. If the pool warranty requires you be within certain limits you may want to fix it sooner.
