Herein, how much sand do you put under an above ground pool?
Sand Depth Also, sand under an aboveground pool acts as cushioning for its floor, making it more comfortable for feet. The standard depth of sand that should be used under an aboveground pool's floor is 2 inches.
Secondly, can you put above ground pool on pavers? We put pool on at least an 8-inch base of fine sand covered with a foam board for additional protection. This needs to be leveled so as to also provide the best water placement. Don't use the paver base; however, you may be able to use the pavers to contain the sand. You can do it on pavers, or concrete.
Likewise, people ask, do I need to put sand under my pool?
The only pools that require sand as a base are vinyl lined ones. The sand is easily troweled flat and smooth and provides a compactable surface free of any rocks or debris with sharp edges that could puncture the liner. Nowadays, it is mostly only used under above ground pools.
