Almost always the pool owner knows if their pool is loosing water. Waiting to get it fixed just costs more money in water and chemicals. Finding a pool leak can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Is it a problem with the pipes, the equipment, or is the pool’s shell leaking?

The swimming pool is viewed in basically three aspects:

1. Underground Plumbing. We’ll inspect all plumbing, utilizing specialized equipment to detect any problems.
   
   
2. Structure or Shell. The shell, or structure of the pool, is investigated with ultra sound listening equipment, and by using pinpoint dye testing methods. Areas like the Skimmer, Main Drain, Light, Return fittings are inspected.
   
   
3. Above ground Plumbing and Equipment (pumps, filters, etc). The above ground plumbing and equipment is also a very important aspect of a comprehensive leak test. Certain plumbing configurations can allow water loss without the homeowner knowledge.

What is allowable for evaporation?

Unfortunately there is no magic number or standard formula. There are many different variables in play that determine evaporation rates.

Variables:

• Environmental conditions (i.e. Wind)
• Water features (Spa spillway, Sheer Descents, Fan Jets, etc.)
• Heating features (Heater, Heat Pump, Solar Panels)
• Screen enclosure
• Pool Interior finish
• Tile selection (Amount of grout being used)
• Rocks used for water features or as tile coping

Evaporation can range from 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch per day depending on the variables mentioned above.
