We had our pool remodeled due to cracks in the wall/leaking. A pool within a pool was constructed. All new filtration, skimmer, pumps, bubblers, heater/chiller. Pool equipment was removed from one side of the house and new equipment/plumbing installed on the opposite side.
We began filling the pool this weekend and immediately lost water. The main drain is leaking.
Found out - the main drain was not looked at, replaced. We do not understand how it passed a pressure test?
Today the contractor plugged the drain and has proceeded with start up.
Will this pass inspection? Should we accept the plugged drain or insist they correct the problem?
We were told correcting it would require the pool to be drained, opened up, repair drain, new cement and refinished.
Thank you for your time and advice... Ellen
