    Rapid leak

    Hi everyone, I awoke this morning to discover that the water level was low (about 1” below tile). I immediately began adding water (the pump was not yet on). I set the water hose on a 1 hr timer and shuffled around the house. When I circled back around to check the pool, the water level was 4”...

    Pool drained over winter

    I have a concrete pool that has lost a lot of water over the winter. Over 3/4 of it. The cover is still on (barely) and I could use some help with getting a plan ready when I take the cover off. I’m going to assume the leak is in one of the floor drains. Water level seems to have stabilized. Any...

    Pool liner floated!

    We have an in-ground pool with a vinyl liner (don't know what's underneath that). It was built in 2003, we purchased the property in 2012. Two winters in a row the liner floated up in spring. The water leaked out to the level of the bottom step which would lead me to believe there's a leak...
