I could use some help finding a leak in my semi-inground vinyl pool. It's losing about 150gal/day with the pump running.
As per this Leak Detection article, I've run a few tests.
I've sealed off my skimmer and only return (an AquaGenie) and tracked the water loss in the vessel and in the skimmer itself. The vessel is not leaking but the water level in the skimmer dropped by about half an inch.
I dropped some food colouring inside the skimmer:
It's hard to tell but I think there's a line of water running along the left side. I can't really tell.
I also ran some food colouring tests outside the skimmer, hoping to catch a leak in a gasket or a crack in the skimmer itself somewhere:
Any ideas?
