Signs Your Pool Might Have a Leak
Wondering if your pool is leaking? Here are some common signs that indicate a problem:
- Excessive Water Loss: If you’re refilling your pool more often than usual or losing more than 1/4 inch of water per day, it could be due to a leak.
- Wet Spots or Soggy Ground: Wet areas around the pool or damp soil could mean a plumbing leak.
- Cracks in Pool Surface: Visible cracks or chips in the pool walls or floor could be signs of a structural leak.
- Increased Water Bills: A spike in your water bills without explanation is often a sign of a hidden pool leak.
Our Pool Leak Detection Process
At Shark Swimming Pools, we use the latest technology to locate even the smallest leaks, preventing unnecessary digging or disruption to your pool area. Here’s how our leak detection and repair process works:
- Inspection: We begin with a visual inspection to check for obvious signs of leaks, including cracks and wet spots.
- Pressure Testing: We test the pool’s plumbing lines for leaks by pressurizing the system and monitoring for drops in pressure.
- Dye Testing: For small or hard-to-detect leaks, we use dye testing to trace water movement and locate cracks or gaps.
- Electronic Leak Detection: Using advanced electronic detection equipment, we pinpoint the exact location of the leak without invasive digging.
- Repair: Once the leak is located, we perform all necessary repairs, whether it’s a plumbing issue or structural crack.
- Follow-Up: After the repair, we monitor your pool’s water level to ensure the leak is fully resolved.
Why You Need Timely Leak Detection
Delaying leak detection can lead to significant problems, including:
- Higher Water Bills: Leaking pools can waste hundreds of gallons of water per day, leading to high water bills.
- Structural Damage: Undetected leaks can cause long-term damage to your pool’s foundation and surrounding areas, leading to costly repairs.
- Water Waste: Pool leaks waste valuable water, which can harm the environment and lead to unnecessary water use.
By detecting and repairing leaks early, you save money and protect your pool’s long-term health.
