possible and well drained.

•
Choose a spot on dry, firm earth
(stabilizer or other)

do not
install the
pool on asphalt, tar paper, sand,
gravel, peat moss, wood or chemically
treated soil.

Check with your pool dealer to see if Nut
Grass grows in your area. This type of
grass may grow up through your pool
liner. Your dealer will be able to advise
how best to treat the site.

Sloped areas will need to be made level
by digging away high spots,

by
filling low spots

be prepared to hire
