foam is better in the bottom of the pool than sand, sand shifts and will sometimes wash out leaving deep indentions in the pool. foam is best used 1/4" foam is best no small nolarger also make use the pool out side wall has a way to drain water away from the pool after rain or it could get under the foam

I have had my pool for 8 years. I lined it with Styrofoam and then used tuck tape (red stuff) on all the seams. It finally got a hole in the liner this winter. I talked to the pool place where I bought it and they mentioned that liners last approximately 5 years. I am happy I got 8. The only thing I have noticed for a couple of years now is that the Styrofoam had lost its consistency and I was starting to see the bottom ribs of the pool. With now having to replace the liner I will go with Styrofoam again. It lasted a long time.

Yes. This prevents weeds and grass from growing beneath the pool. I just had an above ground pool installed. The cove comes with a lifetime guarantee.

16 x 31 above ground pool how much sand will you need for underneath?

I just installed a 15x30 pool. To get the required 2" of sand plus the cove around the edges took 4.5 tons. Here in Baltimore that ran me about $200 delivered from a garden center type place. You may need more if you have really uneven ground or need to do additional leveling. Hope this helps.
