It's a very good idea to do. Not only does it help keep the weeds from breaking through, but it will help keep your Gorilla Floor Padding clean. We put down the heavy duty pool cover, than the sand, and the pool cover also kept the sand from dispersing right into the ground......so you are on the right track.

that is what we did and we have now had the pool up for over a year and no problem with any ground coming through

We installed our pool on our concrete patio. We put rubber tiles on the patio, an old pool liner cut to fit our new pool, then the gorilla pad & it worked great. Only problem we had was living in Houston, TX & the rain & humidity, the pad got green mold & it would not come out. We do think the gorilla pads are the way to go if you are putting your pool on either ground or on concrete.

No this would only cover part of your pool. It would be better to buy an oval cover.

You should get the pad closest to the size of your pool. You will have to trim it to fit your pool with a scissors as it is not designed to go up the sides of the pool.

Probably not. Unless you have cement pads that are as high as the pool walls.

you could==i was not happy with the cover because you can not see the water, if it rains the rain gots on top and when you try to get the cover out of the pool, all the dirty water gets in the pool

I have a 18 foot diameter pool and the 18 covers it perfectly. you could cut the 18 down.

My pool cleaner is different than yours, however I think it will work for you. This cover tapers up very slow and there is almost no ridge along the outside. I threw it in the pool upside down and used my screener to turn it over the drain. My Hayward pool cleaner goes right over it no problem.

You definitely need something more to go under this liner like a gorilla pad. Also, the foam cove is much easier to use than sand. If you do choose to use sand instead of a sub-liner, don't forget to poison the ground to kill the nut grass and other plants that can grow up through the liner. Most pool supply stores can tell you what to buy.

I'd honestly try to find a cover that'll cover the entirety of your pool. The point of solar covers is to hold heat in. If you use multiple panels to cover it, you'll have gaps (even if you overlap) in which heat will escape, ultimately lowering the effectiveness of the cover.

You have to do it from the outside, especially if you want to lay it down against the tub.It is the best cover I have ever had.

We put pea gravel down, then the ground cover, then the Gorilla pad. No weeds under the pool. We had a couple On the outside but that's all

yes, but it is not worth buying unless you are using it to keep out leaves. If it rains everything in the cover will get into your pool. Also the tie down system is not very good. I would not recommend this item at all. It is worthless.

The Gorilla Floor Padding is an excellent product to put under your pool. The padding is quality and I haven't had anything pierce thru or would expect anything to pierce thru the padding. Gorilla padding is a superior product in my eyes. I have a intex 18 x 52 inch pool and have had no issues.

You can, but it will not cover all the water area. Debris can fall in and it will not heat up pool as well.

I put down the sand packed it well, the laid the Gorilla pad down and the the tarp the pool provided. I had a few weeds grow through both. it really surprised me. it does how ever provide a good pad for the feet in the pool.

yes...carefully lay it over the pool...put weights on the parts that extend over the sides and then carefully cut away the excess
