material needed to put below above ground pool

Postby Keyser Soze » July 30th, 2018, 9:04 am

Need some type of foam/rubber sheet to put at the base of an above ground pool to prevent pebbles/stones from puncturing the base.
Any recommendations, location for items?

I've seen some installers use the white sand to compact and level the floor and then a tarp

We did this and it worked well for the temporary setup we had.

thanks for the suggestions people.
I called IRP as suggested above, they gave me two numbers for their rubber department... still waiting to connect to either....
I saw excellent stores selling those interlocking rubber mats, 2' x 2' 4 in a pack for $199. so i bought 4 packs and that looks like it will handle the job.

thanks again.
