PHASE 2 –Pool setup
I. Ground preparation
The preparation of the ground is the most important step in the installation of the pool.
Mark off your pool area by driving stakes. Have a helper hold a tape measure or a string and mark off the pool perimeter using flour
or chalk. Remove sod inside the pool area to a distance of 30 cm beyond dimensions shown in the plot layout around entire
perimeter of pool.
Diagram 1 Diagram 2
Diagram 3 Diagram 4

ACQUAMARINA POOL MANUAL pag. 9 / 21
www.cpa-piscine.it
Rev.00–18/11/20
II. Levelling 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 5). 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!
Diagram 5
Remove the higher ground rather than filling the low laying ground (see diagram 6).
WARNING
Always remove grass and stones within the circle. Use ground sheet to ensure that the grass doesn’t penetrate the pool
liner and cause damage.
Diagram 6
Spread a light layer of fine brick layers sand over the foundation area. Level this layer evenly (see diagram 7). Once the site
has been cleared and levelled, it is time to start assembling the frame assembly.

1. Connect the steel belt to either end of the left and right side pool frames (see diagram 13 and 14). Make sure the steel
belt is protected by the PVC sleeve which is provided in the package. This will protect the pool liner from damage.
IV. Pool wall rail and rail connector setup
1. Position the left and right side wall frame in the middle of the prepared area (see diagram 15)
2. Place the rails around the area where the pool wall is to be installed (see diagram 15)
3. Connect the rails together using 2 rail connectors per rail (see diagram 16) and leave a 1.5 cm gap between each
connection (see diagram 17)
4. Connect the side tails to the side bottom metal piece A and B either side of the pool wall frame supports (see diagram

5. Place the bottom metal piece between the joins of the rails with the triangular end pointing out from the pool wall (diagram
19).
6. Place the inside bottom protector
over the steel belt and screw into
the horizontal side beam.
Note: ensure the PVC sleeve covers
the steel belt to prevent damage or
rust effecting the pool (diagram 20)
CAUTION: Wear protective gloves when handling metal wall
7. Place the metal pool wall with the skimmer hole at the
top, onto a piece of cardboard, ply wood or ground
during installation. Note: Position the pool wall’s
skimmer cutout in the same location to where your
electricity supply will be to power the filtration system
(diagram 21)
Diagram 21
8. Rest the end of the pool wall in the side bottom metal piece between the gap in the side rail. Make sure the prepared
location is not prone to constant windy conditions. Continue unrolling and placing the bottom edge of the pool wall into
the rails until the full length of the wall is sitting in rails (see diagram 22).

9. On the opposite side of the pool wall, carefully lift and place the steel wall in between the side support frame and the
inside bottom protector.
Note: There is a section cut out of the pool wall that will allow the wall to slot over the horizontal support beam (see
diagram 23).
10. Line up the two ends of the pool wall then begin inserting and hand tightening each bolt and nut until the full length of the
join is assembled (see diagram 24). Do not completely tighten bolts before you check the wall is in the correct place,
level and that no damage has occurred to the pool wall.
Note: At this stage, it is recommended that you assemble the pool ladder to place over the pool wall to gain access to
the inside and outside of the pool area’s.

V. Measuring the pool wall
WARNING
A pool that is not level is very dangerous and may
collapse at any time.
Diagram 25
Diagram 26
Check the pool wall level by placing a length of timber beam or similar across the diameter of the pool wall and placing the builders
level on the top of the timber beam (see diagram 25). If the deviation is more than 2 cm (see diagram 26) then the ground site
must be levelled again. Check also if the pool is oval and measure the diameter across a few spots to make sure the differences
of each diameter measured are within 2cm.
If the levels are not to specification then the area will have to be leveled again.
WARNING
Try not to manage any of the components when dissembling the pool wall to correct the level of the ground.
Once the measurements and levels are correct and all nuts and bolts are tightened, then cover the exposed screw heads with the
self-adhesive tape (see diagram 27 and 28).

VI. Making a protective sand cushion at the foot of the inner pool
Diagram 29 Diagram 30
To protect the liner against the rail and the pool wall, it is recommended to create a protective covering made of fine brick sand at
the foot of the pool wall (see diagram 29 and 30). The size should be height 15 cm x width 15 cm so that it completely seals the
rail but doesn’t distort the pool liner.
VII. Fitting the PVC pool liner
Fit the PVC liner on a warm and sunny day, preferably above 22°C. Unfold the PVC liner and put it in the sun for 2 hours. This helps
to soften the PVC. If the temperature is below 16°C, the PVC liner will be hard and rigid and quite difficult to handle.
Put the liner at the center of the pool site inside the pool wall. Extend it evenly until the seam line reaches the base of the pool
where the protective sand cover is. Smooth out all the wrinkles in the liner. Straighten the PVC liner and hold it perpendicular to the
ground. Drape the pool liner over the pool wall.
There should be an overlap of 8 cm of the pool wall height (see diagram 31 and 32). Hold the overlap in place with clothes pegs.
Diagram 31 Diagram 32
Check if the pool liner is placed evenly around the perimeter. Evenly fold the excessive length of the PVC if you find it a bit loose.
Check if the overlap is uniform. If the pool liner is slightly short, then you will have to let it down and vice versa.
Fill the pool with 3 to 5 cm height of water to smooth out the liner against the pool wall (see diagram 31). Check to see if water is
level, if not, something is wrong and you will have to dismantle the liner and pool wall to access and level the ground area.

Remove the pegs one at time whilst applying the fix rails (see diagram 33). Slide the pipe connectors into one end of the top rail,
then connect another top rail, continue around the circumference until all top rails are joined together and firmly pressed into the
top of the pool wall.
Diagram 33
Fix all top rails to the top of the pool wall and make sure they are all sitting properly.
CAUTION! Do not cut the excess overlap of
the pool liner wall. If you cut the overlap, it
will make the next pool installation difficult.

Place the two side top platforms on top of the rails and align the holes over the side top metal piece. Using four bolts, washers,
spring washers, attach the side top platforms to the side top metal piece and only hand tighten. Place a top platform at the end of
one of the side top platforms and attach using four bolts, washers, spring washers and nuts. Continue this process until all of the
top and side top platforms are attached to all of the top and side top metal pieces (see diagram 36, 37 and 38).
Check the alignment but do not tighten.

IX. Assembly of the vertical supports
Attach the bottom joint protector to the vertical support using the screws provided
(see diagram 39). Line up all of the screw holes of the vertical supports with the
top and bottom metal pieces. Fix the vertical support onto the top and bottom metal
pieces and hand screw into place. Continue this process around the pool until all of
the vertical supports are attached. Check and adjust the alignment of the vertical
supports to ensure that they are indeed vertical and straight then go around the pool
and tighten all screws top and bottom (see diagram 40).
X. Attaching joint protectors
Clip the non-screw end of the side joint protector over the side top platform join and screw the other end into place. Using the
same method, attach the joint protectors for the top platforms and screw into place. Do not over tighten! (See diagram 41 e 42)
