Why Menifee Pools Need Leak Detection
An accessible swim space is a major draw for businesses and it adds value and enjoyment to homes all year long. Nothing beats enjoying the California sun while kicking back poolside but a leak will put a damper on your day pretty quickly. Calling Puddle for your Menifee pool leak detection at the first sign of water loss can save your summer and help to avoid costly damage.
There are a couple of reasons that you might start to notice a drop in your pool water level. Natural water loss is common, especially at the height of summer when temperatures are high. Pool leaks, on the other hand, will cause water loss no matter the climate. Over time leaks in swimming pools will only get worse, leading to serious damage and expensive repair bills. Don’t hesitate to book leak detection for your pool, spa or hot tub at the first sign of trouble.
Swimming Pool Leak Detection: Tracking Down Problem Areas
Sunny days and high temperatures are the staples for a great pool party but this is also the recipe for water loss. Heat causes water to evaporate and swimmers will carry and splash water right out of your system. It’s common to see between 3-5 inches of water loss over the course of a week. If you are seeing more than this or are having to refill your water level on a daily basis, you are probably dealing with a leak.
A bucket test is a way of measuring water loss and can help you determine whether or not you are dealing with a pool leak. This involves filling a bucket with water and setting it next to the pool so the two are exposed to the same conditions. Mark the water level in each and if after a few days, the water level in the pool is noticeably lower than in the bucket, you’ve got a leak!
The next step in the pool leak detection process is to figure out what type of leak you are dealing with and to isolate the problem areas. Puddle Pros have a couple tried, tested and true ways to do this:
Pressure Testing: Tracking down damage or leaks in plumbing lines can be a complicated process. A pressure test involves applying air streams to plumbing and return lines. In the event that the air comes into contact with a crack or break, it creates air bubbles that will come back up through lines. This lets technicians know that there is a leak in plumbing.
Dye Tests: Even a small piece of debris can cause serious headaches. Sharp objects can create a small tear in a pool liner. Physical damage, shifting soil and erosion can cause foundation cracks or break tiles. An effective dye test starts with switching off pool pumps and waiting for water to settle. Once still, coloured dyes are strategically placed in the pool basin. Heavy dyes are attracted to leaks and will leave a colour trail behind that can be followed right to the source of your problem.

Menifee Leak Detection: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drain my pool into the street in Menifee?
The City of Menifee Stormwater Program says only rain should go down the storm drain. Riverside County Watershed Protection advises letting pool water stand 3 to 5 days until chlorine tests at zero, keeping pH between 6.5 and 8.5 and avoiding copper based algaecides. It notes that draining salt water to land is illegal in many places, so confirm with the City before draining.
Can I fill a pool during a water shortage in Menifee?
Eastern Municipal Water District sets the shortage stages for Menifee. Its Water Shortage Contingency Plan says that at Stage 3a no variances or adjustments are allowed for filling swimming pools. Check EMWD water supply status before a large fill.
How hot does it get for pools in Menifee?
Menifee has no NOAA normals station; the nearest, Elsinore, averages highs of 96.5 F in July and 97.8 F in August with about 123 days a year at or above 90 F and about 42 at or above 100 F. Long hot stretches raise evaporation, which makes it worth tracking water loss and chemistry through summer.
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.
Should I keep the pool running while I wait for a leak test?
Keep the water level above the skimmer so the pump does not run dry, and note how much water you add and when. That record helps the test. If the level is dropping quickly, tell us when you book so the visit can be prioritized.
We had a fountain issue at our home, and were referred to Puddle Pools. Jim and the Team were excellent to deal with, very communicative and customer service oriented. They addressed the issues made the repairs necessary and were very helpful. Much appreciated and great work !
Recently my brother died but while he was alive he let his pool turn to sheet. (He was invalid-ish.) I called Brett and despite the extensive repairs that were needed, he was able to restore the pool to it's former glory and his rates, given the needed repairs, were criminally low. But what impressed me most about him was that when I told him my realtor also knew a pool guy, he didn't try and strong arm me into making a decision on the spot or try to hard close. He said he understood that this was a big decision and that if he still needed his service, please just reach out. Now, I don't know what they call that in North Carolina, but in California, we call that a class act and I ended up going with him. I can't imagine ever using anyone else. Thanks, Brett! You and your team did an amazing job!
