SELECTING A SUITABLE SITE
Carefully select the site for your new pool. This is the most important decision you will have to make to
ensure the safety and success of your pools construction. An incorrect site could cause problems in the
future that may cause injury, death or financial loss. Read carefully the check list set out below when
selecting your site.
Acceptable:
Flat, level, firm and dry ground with easy access to all sides of the pool
Exposed to direct sunlight, preferably in the morning
Safe access to electricity for running the filter pump and other pool accessories
Access to mains water source
Protection from wind
Not acceptable:
Sloping ground
Concrete, Asphalt, Sandy, Gravel and Swampy ground
Close to wooden construction e.g. Pergola’s and decking
Next to deciduous or leafy trees
Over-head wires and clothes line
Drains, electric wires or gas pipelines underneath the site
Loping ground
Poor or little drainage or high flood risk locations
High wind conditions

Tools Required:
• Phillips head screw driver
• Small Shifter
• Clothes Pegs
• Sprit Level
• Sharp Knife
• Site excavation tools
• Protective Gloves

MARKING THE SITE
1. Mark the centre of the site and drive a stake or screw driver into the soil. (See diagram 1)
2. Tie a piece of string onto the stick. At the other end of the string, tie a funnel. The distance
between the stick and the funnel should be 15cm more than the radius of the pool (See diagram 2)
2. If the pool diameter is 500cm, then the circle should be 530cm in diameter. (See diagram 3)
3. Place flour, chalk dust or lime into the funnel and draw a circle around the stake.

LEVELING THE AREA
Warning! Levelling is extremely important: take as much time as possible to work out a site
that is completely firm and levelled.
Use a carpenter’s level and straight edge to ensure that the site is completely level, flat and firm!
(See diagram 4) The pool contains a huge amount of water and thousands of kilos of weight.
Should the pool collapse due to unlevelled ground, it could cause a lot of damage to property
and even human injury or death!
Remove the higher ground rather than filling the low laying ground (see diagram 5)
Attention! Always remove grass and stones within the circle.
If clearing Kutch, Kukua grass, use the ground cover provided to ensure that the grass doesn’t
penetrate the pool liner and cause damage.
Spread a light layer of fine brick layers sand over the foundation area. Level this layer evenly. (See diagram
Remove high spots
Do not fill low spots

ASSEMBLING THE POOL BASE RAILS
Place the base metal pieces equally around the circle line drawn in Step 3, slide the bottom rail
into the metal piece. The base metal piece should now be placed in the middle of the bottom rail.
Do the same for all 12 bottom rails. (See diagram 7)
Connect all the bottom rails together with a small connector piece. It is important to leave about
an 1cm gap between 2 ends of the bottom rail at the small connector piece. (See diagram 8).
This is for fine adjustment of the diameter of the bottom rails. When all the rails are connected, it
should form a perfect circle and the diameter should be equivalent to the diameter of the pool
itself. You can shorten or lengthen the gap distance at the small connector piece in order to form
a perfect circle. (See diagram 9)
(Diagram 7)
(Diagram 8)
(Diagram 9)

FIXING THE POOL WALL
Put the pool wall on a ground cloth, cardboard or a piece of ply wood (see diagram 10). This is to
protect the levelled ground while installation of pool wall is taking place. Make sure the square
window (for skimmer) is on the upward side.
( It is advisable to wear protective gloves when handling the metal wall).
You should decide where the skimmer and filtration system should be placed. The opening end of
the pool wall closest to the square window should be placed on the closest metal piece to your selected
location for the electic supply of the filtration system. The pool wall end should be resting in the centre of the
base metal piece (See diagram 11). Make sure that this location is not in a windward position. Square window
should be in the upward position.
Then uncoil the whole pool wall onto the ground rail. Join the 2 ends of the pool wall together. Line
up the screw holes. If you could not line up the holes, then adjust the gap distance of the small
connectors again or cut away the excessive part of the bottom rail. (See diagram 12, 13)
(Diagram 10)
(Diagram 11)
(Diagram 12) (Diagram 13) (Diagram 14)

Place the screw heads through the inside of the pool. Nuts should be on the outside of the pool wall.
(See diagram 14). Only hand tighten the bolts at this point. Check to see if the pool wall is level. This can
be achieved by placing a length of rigid timber or similar across the diameter of the pool and placing
the builders level on the top. (See diagram 15)
If the deviation is more than 2 cm (see diagram 16), then the ground site must be levelled again.
Warning! A pool that is not level is very dangerous and may collapse at anytime.
Check also if the pool wall is round and measure the diameter across a few spots to make sure the
differences of diameter measured are within 2cm.
Cover the screw heads with the thick PVC band (See diagram 17, 18)
You can also use tape to seal the screw heads.
