Seems like my wall is leaking below the skimmer but above the jets. I have demonstrated this leak three times this week with the jets plugged. The water leaks rapidly down to the top of the jets area - mostly stops leaking (leads slowly down to 1/2 inch below the top of the jets, then stops completely). It suggests to me that my pool/spa wall is the likely porous structure where water is leaking. Unfortunately I refinished the spa this year.
I went back and looked at photos of my 2010 renovation when the spa jets were moved. Though I dont remember what I did, it appears that the spa jets were lowered, which means there were holes that needed to be plugged where the jets used to be. 12 years later, might this be the source of the leak? And if so, what can I do now to address?
(two photos below (1) spa today, with water having leaked to the jets and the jets still plugged. (2) photo from 2010 renovation which shows the older holes which were filled)
