STEP 11: HANGING LINER continued
TYPE # 2 – SNAP BEAD LINER:
• With a snap bead liner you will not use the plastic coping strips
that are packed in the parts carton of many pools. You can
discard those pieces (if they are included). Instead, you should
have received a beaded liner track (referred to as a “coping
bead receiver” in the below diagram).
• The beaded liner track should be installed onto the pool wall all
of the way around the pool. These pieces should be as close
together as possible. Leaving spaces between bead tracks can
cause liner problems down the road.
• Once all of the beaded liner track is on the wall, you can snap
the liner bead into the beaded liner track at four random points
around the pool. After that is done, and you are satisfied with
how the liner is situated within the pool, you can continue
snapping the remainder of the liner into place around the pool.
• Go around the entire pool again making certain that the liner is
securely snapped into the track. This is important to confirm
so that the liner does not pull out while under the pressure of
being filled with water.
TYPE # 3 – J or V-BEAD LINER:
• With a V-Bead liner you will not use the plastic coping strips that
are packed in the parts carton of your pool. You can discard
those pieces, if they are included, as they only apply to pools
with overlap liners.
• The top of the wall of the liner has what is called a “V-Bead”
welded onto it. Simply open up the bead with your fingers and
hang it directly on top of the pool wall. When this is done
properly, the only portion on the outside of the pool wall is
approximately 1” of the V-Bead. No printed liner material is
actually going over the top of the wall to the outside of the wall.
• Make sure the bead is on evenly around the entire pool, and
that the liner is hanging straight down from the top of the wall.
The liner should not have creases in it because it is twisting
around the pool. If the liner is twisting, it is because it is not
sitting properly in the pool. Make necessary adjustments
before proceeding.
