Beaded liners snap into a track on the pool’s top rail and generally provide a cleaner, tighter fit, reducing the chance of wrinkles. Overlap liners drape over the pool’s edge and are secured with a coping strip, which can be easier to install but may have more visible wrinkles. The choice depends on your pool’s design and installation preference.

Our liners are the thickest and highest quality available.

Thicker liners offer better durability, flexibility, and puncture resistance, and liners with UV inhibitors help prevent fading over time.

Lighter liners reflect sunlight, keeping pool water cooler and reducing UV damage, while darker liners absorb heat, potentially warming the water but also possibly fading faster. Choose based on your climate and aesthetic preference.

What is a good thickness for an above-ground pool liner?
Thickness claims like 20 mil or 30 mil can sometimes be misleading in the pool industry. Just because a liner or solar cover is advertised with a certain thickness doesn’t always mean it truly is that thick. Our liners are the heaviest and highest quality you’ll find anywhere. When buying an above-ground liner, it is better to ask about the weight rather than just the thickness, since the heaviest liner is usually the thickest, and weight is easier to compare than measurements in thousandths of an inch.
