A swimming pool, although expensive, is a great addition to each home. The fun it brings to you, your friends, and your family makes it worth the cost. Swimming pools undeniably are designed to create relaxation. So, imagine the stress you’re going to feel if you discover that your pool is leaking. Not the best scenario, yet problems like this are totally unavoidable, but you don’t have to worry. Tampa Leak Detection Pros can quickly dive into your problems and get you the best solutions for your pool leaks.
Swimming pool leak detection is one of the trickiest among all leak-solving jobs that we do. The area is vast and there could be a lot of causes for the leakage. It could even be difficult sometimes to tell if it’s a leak or if it is just normal water evaporation. So, you might ask “how do you know if your swimming pool is leaking?”. Below are some common signals that you can keep an eye on to see if there is a leak in your pool.
In addition to observing these red flags, there are two do-it-yourself (DIY) tests you can perform to confirm if your pool is leaking. These include the popular Dye Test and Bucket Test. Both are easy to do and can show you where the leak can possibly originate.
- Losing more water than regular evaporation (approx. ¼ of an inch per day)
- Obvious cracks
- Water under your swimming pool equipment
- Dirt and air bubbles blowing into the pool
- Rapid algae growth
- Inconsistent Ph balance
- Soggy areas near the pool surrounding or in the yard
- Damaged or imbalanced pool deck (sunk or lifted)
- Sudden surge in the water bill
