Maintaining a pristine pool involves more than just sparkling water and a clean deck. Sometimes, it’s about addressing the unseen – the elusive pool leaks that, if left unchecked, can lead to larger issues. In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the process of identifying, locating, and addressing pool leaks, ensuring your oasis remains a haven of tranquility.
Identifying Signs of a Pool Leak:
Ever noticed a significant, unexplained decrease in your pool water level, surpassing the usual evaporation rate of 1/4 inch per day? If so, it might be time to turn your attention to potential leaks.
Common Places for Leaks:
- Swimming Pool Shells: Leaks often occur in common areas such as the skimmer, main drains, light niches, return fittings, and the tile line. These vulnerable spots demand careful inspection to ensure the structural integrity of your pool.
- Plumbing Leaks: Though less common and trickier to identify, plumbing leaks can be a silent culprit. Our comprehensive approach involves pressure testing all lines and utilizing advanced tools like underground listening devices to pinpoint even the most elusive leaks.
