Leak Detection in Frisco, TX
A dripping faucet is bad but a leaky swimming pool is worse! Unlike basic plumbing fixtures inside a home a pool holds thousands of gallons of water at any given time. This means even a pinhole leak can quickly result in major water loss that can damage surrounding areas. Schedule your Frisco pool leak detection with a local expert at the first sign of water loss to protect your property and avoid widespread damage.
It’s easy to overlook a leak in your swimming pool. All it takes is a bit of splashing to throw your water level off but there is a big difference between a couple of cannonballs and a major water leak. The longer you wait, the worse your pool leak becomes so don’t hesitate to call a local expert to stop water loss in its tracks!
Detect Leaks in a Pool: How to Read the Signs
Swimming pool leaks can be sneaky. It can take days, weeks or even months to identify that there is a problem. The first step in stopping water loss in its tracks is to pinpoint if water loss is due to a leak or if it is occurring naturally. Texas is known for high heats and the higher the temperature, the greater the rate of evaporation.
Reduced Water Level: The most obvious sign of a pool leak is low water levels. During the height of summer it’s common for water levels to drop due to high temperatures and a higher rate of use. Hosting a pool party is great but every swimmer that steps in or out is taking pool water with them. It’s common to lose 3-5 inches of water over the course of a week but if you find yourself having to refill your pool on a daily basis it is a problem.
Higher Utility Bills: Once you’ve been in a home for a while you have an idea of what your average monthly water bill will be. If the bill spikes upward unexpectedly it is a good sign that you are dealing with a water leak in your pool.
Saturated Soil: When dealing with inground pools, plumbing runs underground surrounding structures. If a pipe is corroded or damaged water will leak out from these areas and into soil. In the case of an underground plumbing leak it is common for lawns to become saturated and puddles to form around pools. If there is unexpected pooling water it is a good idea to call a Puddle technician as soon as possible.
Bucket Test: If you are having a hard time determining whether or not you are losing water a bucket test might help to clarify things for you. This test involves filling a bucket with water and placing it next to the poolside. When the bucket and swimming pool are exposed to the elements in the same way they should have the same rate of water loss. If the level in the pool drops more than the level in the bucket, you are dealing with a water leak!
The sooner that you are able to locate the source of the leak the easier it is to mitigate any issues and avoid a worst-case scenario.
Expert Pool Leak Detection Services: How Puddle Gets It Done
Managing a pool, spa or hot tub can be tough. While you are worried about chemical treatments and algae growth your swim space is exposed to the elements and that can lead to damage. Puddle technicians won’t just find a leak, they’ll isolate the problem area so you can schedule repairs wherever necessary.
Puddle technicians will implement dye tests to identify structural leaks or in the case of pluming leaks, will use pressure testing to pinpoint problem areas. Even with a regular pool maintenance routine swim spaces and water systems are at risk of corrosion, physical damage or wear and tear. Pool leak detection and repair go hand-in-hand. In the event that you are dealing with a leak our team of local experts will provide referrals for other local leak repair experts. With options to schedule your services online or by-phone there is never a bad time to book an appointment with Puddle Pool Services.
Frisco Leak Detection: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drain my pool into the street in Frisco?
Frisco's stormwater ordinance bans anything other than stormwater from the storm sewer, but dechlorinated swimming pool water is listed as an allowed defense. Pool, fountain and spa filter backwash is specifically prohibited, as is pool water containing a harmful amount of chlorine, muriatic acid or other treatment chemicals. Confirm with the City of Frisco before draining.
Can I fill my pool during drought restrictions in Frisco?
Under Frisco's Water Management Plan, Stage 1 asks residents to drain and refill pools less often. At Stage 3, filling, draining or refilling existing pools and hot tubs is prohibited except for structural integrity, proper maintenance or public safety, though topping off to replace normal use and evaporation is allowed and new pool permits stop. Finding and fixing leaks early keeps top offs small if restrictions tighten.
Is a leaking pool fill line a problem under Frisco's water rules?
Yes. Frisco's water waste rules list failing to repair a controllable leak, including a pool fill in need of repair, as an offense. If your pool loses more water than evaporation explains, leak detection can find whether the fill valve, plumbing or shell is the cause.
Why does a small leak matter?
A pool holds a large volume of water, so a small leak adds up quickly. Beyond the water bill, a leak makes chemistry impossible to hold because treated water keeps escaping, it strains the pump and circulation system and water escaping into the ground can damage landscaping and, over time, the surrounding structure.
Can you test the plumbing lines as well as the pool shell?
Yes. Pressure testing checks the plumbing lines individually, which is how we tell a plumbing leak from a leak in the shell or liner. It is worth testing all the lines even when the leak seems obvious, because a second leak is easy to miss.
