Liner Installation

The 25 Gauge Bedrock Overlap liner is made of 100% virgin vinyl. Overlap liners are designed to fold over the top of your pool wall and are secured in place with coping strips. For optimal installation, lay the liner out in the sun for at least one hour to warm the vinyl, allowing it to stretch properly when adding water. The ideal installation temperature is between 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit.
