Leaks?

[octanefam]

OK filling up the Intex and can't tell if we have a leak? Might sound crazy but I laid my padding down Friday evening along with a tarp to go over the insulation then constructed the pool yesterday. We had rain Friday night and early Saturday morning so I can't tell if the tarp is wet due to rain Or a leak?

Thanks

Try that procedure----when it quits raining of course!

Thank you Woody I will try that once the pool is up but. If I have a leak it's on the floor so a question I have is there an easy way to see the leak on the bottom of the pool. Just don't know if I should Continue the filling process if I think there might be a leak but visually I don't see anything when looking in the pool. if there is a leak its just a trickle right now.

What you are probably seeing is the result of the rain. But, there are lots of articles about using food coloring to find a leak. When I had an Intex pool, I used a product that you dump in the water and it seals leaks. It worked well but the holes were very small.

Do you recall the name of the product that your dumped in the water? Sounds intriguing

Fix a Leak. Got it from Amazon and it works great on tiny pinhole leaks. Instructions may be followed precisely. I still have 3/4 of the bottle.
