Inflatable Pool Level Ground

Can inflatable pools be set on slighly sloping but level ground?

I live close to the bottom of an inclining street. I purchased a steel wall above ground pool but the installer said that we would have to dig a 3 foot x 24 foot circle out of my yard and basically bury my 4 1/2 foot pool in it; thus only 1 1/2 feet of the pool would be above ground. I told him to take the pool back to the store. Since my ground is flat and slightly slopes downward, would an inflatable pool work in my yard without any problems?

I not sure about this. Water has a lot of Weight. Ever see those “Slinky” toys. You not want you Pool to get the same idea as a “Slinky”. Maybe you could Build Up the ground to get it level? Maybe a few Landscaping Timbers or even rocks laid nice and fill in to get it more level. I have wanted to do the same as you, but, with the slope I not think it will work, hate to spend money to watch it Collapse and be Ruined.
Q: Where (and on what surfaces) can I safely and successfully set up my Simple-Set pool?
A: For proper pool functionality and your safety the pool MUST be set up on an extremely flat, level, and stable surface. Suitable surfaces include grass, compacted earth, concrete, or pavement. Use of a ground cloth, if provided, is always recommended and is REQUIRED if the pool is to be set up on concrete or pavement. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should the pool be set-up on wooden decks or other wooden surfaces, or on ground that is muddy or subject to shifting. DO NOT USE SAND to level the ground, as it is also subject to shifting under the weight of the pool. Do not attempt to ‘jack up’ the pool on any type of frame, support, or riser(s), as this will cause the pool to collapse!
