Hi all,

Finally set up my Coleman 12x26 soft side pool. Once filled, I noticed some droplets at a couple spots around the bottom seam. Is this pretty normal? Suggestions to fix other than taking patches/flex tape to inside/outside of seam and /or siliconing / flex sealing around the outside of seam?

Also, per the pics, the bottom isn’t pulling up too much and stressing the seam, is it? I can’t imagine so and we worked to get pavers level, but I was hoping we didn’t get too high and have too much of the bottom pull up? Thoughts?

No, you shouldn’t have any leaking at all. Is it continuing to drip? Has it gotten worse?

If it is from pinholes, you can patch from the inside - use one patch to cover the hole then a larger patch to cover the first patch.

If it is actually the seam, I’d be concerned about it opening up further. I’d call the company and let them know you have a new liner that is leaking at the bottom seam.
