Good morning. I have a elevated spa that loses around an inch of water when the pool is off at night. The system is pretty straight forward and I am at a loss as to what would be causing the problem. The flapper check valve is in good shape according to the pool guy that came out yesterday.
If I turn off the spa fountain using a valve I will continue to lose the water amount each day until the level reaches the same level as the pool. It then stays there without any further loss.
That would indicate to me that there is no signs of a leaking pipe. I have now drained the spa to below the water level in the pool and will observe over the next few days of normal operation to see if there is any loss of water. The flapper is mounted vertically not horizontally. Any ideas would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.f
