Footprints on bottom of inground pool liner?
I had an inground pool installed. We just turned on the lights at night and noticed footprints on the bottom. Can this be fixed? Call the pool company back. The bottom is normally sand mixed with cement. The liner will probably have to be removed and bottom smoothed. They should have checked that before installing the liner. Those printswi catch sediment and debris for the life of the liner.

We have an inground concrete salt water pool in Sydney have hundreds of brown lines an inch long in the pool look like dirt but when broken open hundreds of tiny red worms appear how do we get rid?
thats a bad idea to have an inground salt water pool in concrete. the salt water it self may eat away some parts of the concrete, plus the fact that its underground and contains salt it attracts worms. maybe you should pour alot of clorine in the pool to kill them, then empty out the water and start fresh.

NO however you should keep in mind that the ground water outside of the pool is not going to put pressure on it as this is capable of even lifting a concrete pool out of the ground.

What base do you use under a vinyl pool?
For Aboveground pools, typically you would use clean sand (no stones) or you can buy some pool specific ground covers, some are foam, some more like a foil. For Ingorund applications you could do any of the above, sand used to be used a fair bit but I wouldn't recommend it. In our opinion inground pools should have a proper concrete/grout bottom. It protects the line from things in the ground and will not shift causing the bottom to move and possible the liner to fail.
