I am building a 18.5' x 29.5' inground pool.  The walls are concrete block.  I plan to use Cinderalla CP-2 Bullnose coping or a similar product.  The corners are 90º angles.  

I have heard there are negatives to 90º corners for vinyl lined pools.  

Creating a radius is not easy with block construction.  

Can you elighten me on the need for radiused corners for vinyl liners?

Thank you

We reached out to Cinderella for some insight. Below was their response.

Normally when building a rectangle block wall pool the corners are 90°. A 90° angle just makes it a little more difficult to insert the liner.  Some homeowners will use a 90° corner with a 3 or 4" diagonal.  The negative corner he is referring to would be the opposite of a 90° or 270°. An example of this use would be if you were standing in the water and this would be the angle that went into the 8' step area.

If you have additional questions you can call Cinderella at 989-755-7741 ext. 117.
