Step 5:
See Figure 6. Spread the sand across the entire botto m of the pool. Moisten and tamp the sand to provide
a solid base. The sand base must be 2” deep after tampi ng. The sand should be moistened and trowel to a smooth
finish. Create a 6” radius cove along the wall as shown. This cove must also be tamped solid to prevent shifting.
WARNING: Failure to use the sand or sand equivalent and shape it as specified will void all warranties on the pool
and liner.
