Features

  • Ground Shield Protects Your Pool Liner: This 12-foot round, heavy-duty, extra-thick pool liner pad safeguards your above-ground pool liner from punctures, tears, abrasions, and rips caused by rocks, roots, glass, and other sharp objects. It extends the liner's lifespan and reduces the risk of damage and costly replacements. The pad also provides a thin layer of cushioning underfoot, making the pool more comfortable to walk on.
  • Extra-Thick Above-Ground Pool Pad: This durable, long-lasting pool liner pad is made of heavy-duty, extra-thick, 220-gram, non-woven geotextile fabric material that acts as an effective weed barrier, preventing weeds from growing through the pad and into your pool, keeping your pool water clean and free of debris.
  • Easy to Install: Simply place the pad on the level ground where your pool will be installed, ensuring it extends slightly beyond the pool's edge. Cut the pad to size with a utility knife for a custom fit around your pool. This pad is suitable for both soft-sided and hard-sided above-ground pools, ensuring an easier installation process for all pool types.
  • Extends Liner Life: This pad provides a smooth, protective layer between the pool liner and the ground, significantly reducing wear and tear on the liner, extending its lifespan, and saving you money in the long run
  • U.S. Pool Supply's premium-quality Ground Shield pool liner pads are available in multiple sizes for round, oval, and rectangle-shaped pools. They can easily be trimmed to fit your needs. Buy with confidence. Ground Shield pool liner pads have a 2-year limited warranty for pool liner pad replacement.

  • Great Pool Liner Pad
Size: 24ft Round
I really like this Pool Liner Pad, it's not thick but it makes the bottom of the pool feel so much better. Very happy with purchase.

  • Good quality and easy to use
Size: 27ft Round
We replaced our liner in our 27 foot pool and we wanted a better foundation for the new liner than just the sand. Did some research and found this pad. This pad is thick, appears to be verry durable and very easy to install. We smoothed out the sand and laid this over it. We installed new liner and it worked perfectly. A definite plus to our pool liner foundation. A good value. ... show more

Good fabric. It's soft so the bottom wont be as hard as if you used a tarp. About same price for this verse a tarp. Will I need a new one come next year, i have no idea. Like I said it's a fabric material.
