I have a 1 yr old vinyl liner pool that seems to lose around 1/8"/day over the bucket test. (above evap). I finally had a tech come out with the electronic detector as I could not find it with dye etc.
The bottom corners of my steps are the problem. I question the guy I had install the liner, but that's another story. He missed the holes and made some new ones when installing the sealing strips. I assume anything that gets around the strips is going throught the original screw holes.
Am I better off to lower the water level and caulk the strips or is there a better method? I have use Marine Tex at the corners already, but do not think I got it all stopped.
Can I use the stop leak liquid in a small amount pushed into the seams with a squeeze bottle? I really hate to lower the water, but want to get this fixed before I put the cover on.
Thanks
