Pools
are built to be watertight but over time the ground will settle,
sealants become unstable and parts will wear. At some point, every
swimming pool will form a leak. Not to be negative Nancy but that is one
of the few things guaranteed in a swimming pool. That's why we are
here. We take the guess work out of the equation and get you back to
leak free, fast!Pools
will leak through a wide array of points (i.e. plumbing, structure,
equipment, fittings, etc...). It's important to repair the leak to
conserve water, chemicals, natural gas and electricity from heating.
Not to mention, the water you're losing is going somewhere. As the
water from the leak is forced into the surrounding soil it will create
unnatural erosion. This can lead to fill dirt being washed away and
result in the integrity of the pool's structure to become compromised.
Your
pool will always lose some water, naturally, due to evaporation. Water
loss due to evaporation will vary with your water temperature, outside
temperature, open or closed pools, the duration that the pool is
uncovered, etc... If
you're losing a noticeable amount of water (more than an inch or so
per week) you may have a leak. It's never a bad idea to periodically
perform a bucket test on the pool. If you then feel that you have a
leak, it's worth spending some time and money to repair. It will cost
less in the long run every time
