3 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Pool Liner
Fading that goes beyond appearance Once the pattern bleaches out, the vinyl becomes brittle and more likely to tear.
Wrinkles around the shallow end Wrinkles mean the liner has stretched out of shape and no longer sits tight against the pool structure.
Unexplained water loss Water loss that isn’t from evaporation or a pump leak usually signals a pinhole or tear beyond patching.
If you have two or three of these signs, stop patching. A new liner is cheaper than repairing structural damage from a sudden blowout.
