Greetings.. I own and 18 x 36 in ground pool. Replaced the liner 5 years ago with a 28 mil high quality liner. We have no drain at the deep end. Only 2 values.. I intake and out take, and the skimmer. We looked outside one day, and we noticed our water level had dropped may 6 inches. In less than a week in dropped 2 feet, to just below one intake value. There is not visable signs of liner failure. We called a plumber to pressure test the lines.. All fine. We filled it back up, did it again. We are getting ready to order a new liner, and replace. . But it seems odd that you would have this rapid water loss than just this slower draw down. Could we have some kind of erosion in the vinyl itself with using clorinating "pucks" in the skimmer basket. Would the pressure test have missed somehow a leak going through the waste line? We have so few great days here in Washington to take full advantage of the pool, this is such a waste...
