A heating tool for thermally manipulating an installed pool liner layer includes a manifold portion and a heat supply portion. The manifold portion forms a closed-loop passageway having a wall and a thermal distribution rail that includes a plurality of heat ports extending through the wall. The manifold portion is structured to pass between an installed pool liner layer and a supporting side wall and permitting manipulation and movement of the heating tool between the pool liner and the side wall. A heat supply portion includes a handle with a co-axially formed inlet passage in fluid communication with a fluid line connection that connects the inlet passage with a heated fluid source.

The invention relates to a system for creating a sealable tank partition from wooden panels (1). Said system includes a rigid structure that consists of: a lower girdle (2) and an upper girdle (3) which are formed by profile elements (21) assembled with each other. Posts (4a, 4b) are placed between said upper and lower girdles (2, 3). This rigid connection is provided by a device consisting of: a post (4a, 4b), having two ends, at least one tenon (62a, 62b) being located at each of the ends; at least one profile (21), having two ends (23), at least one mortise (61a, 61b) being located at each of said ends (23), the mortises (61a, 61b) of two adjacent profiles (21) being stacked on top of one another, and the tenons (62a, 62b) being inserted into the stacked mortises (61a, 61b).

Coping arrangements and methods for mounting coping arrangements for swimming pools and related structures are provided. The coping arrangements include an elongated base member shaped and adapted to be received by a wall of a swimming pool; and a plurality of elongated top members, each of the plurality of elongated top members are adapted to be replaceably mounted to the elongated base member, and each of the plurality of elongated top members having an exposed contour different from each of the other elongated top members. The different exposed contours of the top members of the coping arrangement may comprise different cross-sectional. Methods for changing a coping arrangement, coping arrangement kits, coping members, and methods for installing a pool are also disclosed.

A molding system for a swimming pool coping having a track for receiving a pool cover includes an adaptor configured to be positioned at least partially within the track, the adaptor having a front wall, a lower portion extending from the front wall, an upper portion extending from the front wall, and an upper flange extending from the upper portion. The molding system may further include a spacer configured to be at least partially positioned between and abut against the lower portion and the upper portion of the adaptor. A tool for removing a molding system includes a blade having a top surface, a bottom surface, and an edge, a base connected to the blade opposite the edge having an abutment arranged substantially coplanar with the bottom surface, and a handle connected to the blade disposed along an axis that is obliquely angled with respect to the bottom surface.

An above-ground pool wall assembly apparatus is disclosed which allows the single handed mounting of the pool wall along the pool wall bottom rail. The rolled up pool wall is mounted on a turntable and kept upright by a plurality of retainer posts. As the wall is unreeled a series of guide posts help separate the unreeled portion of the wall from the roll and guide the wall into position on the bottom rail. As the pool wall is progressively mounted along the bottom rail, the apparatus can be kept in the proper position by wheeling the apparatus around the bottom rail in coordination with the progress of the installation.
