If you are wondering if your pool is losing water, please check out our blog post on how to perform a bucket test.


Almost 95% of pool leaks are located with 3’ of the shell of the pool, but that leaves a lot of possible items to test.


Now that you have confirmed you have a leak, let’s talk about next steps. If you can’t visibly see possible area of leaks in your pool (leaks at the equipment pad, missing grout, cracks in the skimmers, etc., it is time to bring in a leak detection professional that specializes in pools like 911 Pool Care.


A professional will use tools to test your pool system and listen for leaks, or even look into the pipes as they are leaking to identify not just what is leaking, but where it is leaking by using microphones and pressure testing, cameras in the pipes as well as dye tests and a few other methods.


Once the leak location has been identified, you can then get quotes and the repair and get back to enjoying your pool instead of worrying about it.


If you have a leak in your pool, or you suspect you have a leak, let us know and we can help you swim more and worry less.
