    Thank you. Odd, growing up I was always told a bubble was need to keep the ice from pressing on the inside of the walls of the pool. It gave the ice the ability to push into the bubble being that the bubble is flexible. Any truth to that?

    I always thought that as well and it may have been true then. Modern AG pool walls are usually formed in a slight zig-zag pattern that's supposed to accomodate the expansion of the ice.
