Please give me your thoughts. This pool may be the end of me. Since last fall, we have had two conduit leaks fixed, a spa return crack, and now our skimmer, which was a bear to get to under the decking. Now it appears to me to be going down faster than it should. It’s about one inch per day. I’m in East Tennessee. Temps are all over the place but generally getting warmer.
When I isolate the suction on the skimmer and the drain independently, the pump does fine, so I don’t think that’s it.
We had a professional leak detection company out here last time diagnosing the skimmer, and while they were here they said everything else was leak free. That was about 6 weeks ago.
Is one inch per day too much? I hope I am just worrying. I am going to try the bucket test tonight and maybe get some dye to check the returns. We have an autofill but I don’t want it installed yet. I am having to put a garden hose in at least once per week to keep it above the skimmer
