Reusing a 5 year old pool liner
We just bought a 27' round above ground pool that is five years old. We are wondering what the story is on just using the liner that was in it? Of course they had to drain it so we could disassmble it. And I "heard" that once you drain it, you can not use that old liner, but why not?
I'm 90% sure this should be avoided but I figured I'd just ask first. Some people I've
Asked say no, that it'll stretch and dry out and possibly break when
Putting water back in. Others say it's fine, "Hell yeah, my sister-in-
law's second cousin's half-brother did it and it worked great!"
But I want to hear from people who may really know the answer.
I did call one pool shop and he said no, not to reuse it. But then I
Wondered maybe he just wants me to buy a new $300 liner...
Thanks
