How do you patch a BIG hole in an above-ground inflatable pool?
Question:We have one of the intex above ground pools that is held up by a ring of air, and there is a hole that is pretty big that we patched last year, but now the patch is leaking air. So we tried to patch it again, and it's still leaking. Will Duct tape around the edges work? Or is there a SUPER patch that's huge somewhere? Any ideas? We can't afford a new one this year!
Answers:
THE POOL SUPPLY HAS SPECAIL PATCHES THAT WILL WITHSTAND WATER AND PRESSURE
try sporting goods,,like the kind of stuff for patching rubber rafts
go to a hardware store and ask for waterproof/plastic proof tape and reseal the hole again, but make sure its flat first and then take off the old tape and start over with the new tape!
I suggest going to the nearest hardware store and explain the situation, im sure they have a good solution.
a spa and pool place should be able to help. You can not be the only one to get a hole. there should be something like a tire patch available
