Been losing 1/2 inch, occasionally 3/4 inch leak in our 15K gallon in-ground pool. Used dye around skimmer, return jets, light, Polaris connection. Nothing. Tried main drain today, but I could not get down easily to squirt dye. Kept floating up and disturbing water/dye. Do I need a weighted belt...(or just lose 20 lbs.). A 10 foot stick with the dye bottle attached and a way to squeeze it ? I will also crawl around the edge and squirt dye all along the tile. Do I do this on top of water or squirt under the surface and watch for drift ?
Any and all tips will be much appreciated.
PS/Edit: Just now read the Evaporation Info page. Might be something there for me. Day temps have been 80-90-95 degrees and night temps 50 thru 75 degrees. Wind is usually mild, we are protected by lots of trees. I would like to check the main drain, anyhow....to eliminate one aspect of a leak.
