Common Signs of a Pool Leak

Water loss can often be attributed to evaporation, but not always. Noticing an unusual drop in your water level can be the easiest and earliest indicator of a pool leak. The source of the issue could be anything from a cracked pipe or structural issues to something entirely left-field. Typical things to look out for include:

 

  • The water level falling faster than usual
  • Unusual gurgling noises
  • Dirt entering your pool from the return
  • An unusual rise in your power bill
  • Loose or cracked pool tiles
  • Algae growth or water quality that’s difficult to balance
  • Standing water in the areas surrounding your pool or spa
  • Pooling water near or under pool equipment

 

If you come across any of these symptoms, contact our team at Leaks Downunder for assistance.

FAQs

  • How do you find a leak in a pool?

    A visual inspection of your pool is the first step to finding a leak. Examining the shell, liner or tiling can provide an indication of the source of your leak. If everything seems fine, then sonar leak detection technology can be deployed to find issues within your pipework—such as cracks, broken joints or root intrusion—that would otherwise be invisible to the naked eye.

  • How do you fix swimming pool leaks?

    First of all, it's important to identify the type of leak. There are two basic types: a crack in a pool surface or a leak from a pool line, such as a supply pipe or return jet. To fix a pipe leak, first of all the location of the leak will need to be found using sonar or pressure testing, then the offending pipe will need to be dug up and repaired. This may require a new joint or replacement pipe. Cracks in the pools surface will often need to be fixed with appropriate relining.
