This AquaJoyer pad is made from 250g non-woven fabric designed to sit between the ground and pool liner, reducing abrasion from rocks, roots, and uneven soil while adding a softer feel underfoot. It’s cut to a rectangle shape for easy sizing and trimming, compatible with soft- and hard-sided pools, and useful any time you want to extend liner life and minimize maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this pad protect my pool liner from punctures and wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad creates a consistent cushion that reduces direct contact between sharp objects in the ground and your liner.
