Hey all, I have an inground pool. I ran the filter all night trying to clear up water. This morning the water level is at least 2" higher. Any ideas?
No auto fill. We have gotten slammed with a lot of rain last weekend but no rain since. I'm thinking groundwater coming up through bottom drain? We had pool drained last year and had it painted. Painters had to set up a ladder across pool rigged to a pump because water kept coming up through bottom drain.Does your pool have an autofill?
Nope. Water did not rise overnight but just rose over 2" while I was doing yard work.Rain?
You have an irrigation system?
A friend pranking you?
I have no idea. The ground in back of my pool drops in comparison to the pool level. I am surrounded by woods/trees and for the first time water is actually pooling in my woods area.Do you have a picture of everything?
What is the ground water level relative to the water level in the pool?
I bYour pool may have a hydrostatic relief valve in the main drain. In places where water table is high, it prevents pressure buildup on pool shell and instead lets ground water inside the pool.
I bet you are %100 correct. We just researched thathydrostatic relief valve and your answer sounds dead on correct. Thanks!Your pool may have a hydrostatic relief valve in the main drain.
