    I continued to lose water overnight not as much and on closer inspection (via photograph) I could see a hair line crack still under the water line... at least I know it’s there now... will allow it to drift down before attempting the repair just to make sure. I have no idea what it’s been...

    Thanks ajw22... You were right.... We discovered a crack in the skimmer and previous repair which is reopened and this crack is connected too... that original crack went unnoticed when we had a new liner put in 4 years ago, when we moved in to the house, we haven’t done anything to it yet as we...

    Thanks for the advice... I did wonder if the bucket was on too high a step, will place on lower step. When you say check the back of the skimmer do you mean take off the front plate piece that I see as I look at the skimmer? I am not sure how I would do that! (I’m just the pool girl trying to...

    Top mark on skimmer was what the pool was at and second Mark is where it fell too.. we suspect the steps will refill tomorrow after seeing if we lose anymore water today and go round with food coloring to see if I can locate anything. Liner is only 4 years old.

    Thanks Richard I was undecided whether to touch the CYA at the beginning I knew I had to tackle it at some point but stupidly realize now I should have left it till after I had finished slamming. School girl error. I shall learn for next time.
