Product Information
Full details
The Intex Pool Ground Cloth 28048 is an essential accessory for above-ground pool owners looking to extend the lifespan of their pool liner by providing a protective barrier against punctures and abrasions. Ideal for those setting up pools on grass, dirt, or concrete, this durable polyethylene sheet prevents direct contact with sharp debris like stones, twigs, and rough surfaces; however, it does not provide additional cushioning against uneven ground, so the underlying area must be leveled before installation.

FAQs
Can I use this on a concrete patio?
Yes, it is excellent for use on concrete to protect the pool liner from abrasive surfaces.
Does this cloth provide a soft feel underfoot?
No, this is a thin protective barrier designed to stop punctures, not to provide cushioning.
Will this fit a 488 cm pool?
No, it is designed for pools with dimensions smaller than 472 x 472 cm.
Is this material waterproof?
Yes, it is made from water-resistant polyethylene.
Should I leave it out all year?
It is recommended to clean and store the cloth in a dry place when the pool is taken down for the season to ensure it lasts longer.
Troubleshooting
The ground cloth keeps shifting during pool setup.
Once the pool is positioned on the center of the cloth, fill the pool with a few inches of water; the weight will naturally anchor the cloth to the ground.
Water pooling on top of the ground cloth around the edges.
Ensure the ground underneath is slightly graded away from the pool area to allow for natural drainage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, clear your chosen area of all sharp objects, sticks, and large rocks. Ensure the ground is perfectly level to prevent pool wall collapse. Spread the cloth out completely flat, ensuring there are no large wrinkles or folds that could cause pressure points against the pool liner. If the cloth becomes dirty, simply hose it off with fresh water and allow it to air dry completely before folding it for winter storage. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the polyethylene material over time.
