Newmarket Pool Leak DetectionWhen it comes to water loss, a leak in your swimming pool is a worst-case scenario. Because pools hold such a high volume of water at any given time even a pinhole leak can lead to serious water loss and damage to surrounding areas. The longer that you wait, the worse a leak becomes so don’t hesitate to call Puddle for your Newmarket pool leak detection at the first sign of trouble.
Swimming pools are simple structures full of complicated systems and that means there are plenty of places that are prone to leaks. Half the battle of leak detection in pools is discovering whether or not you are dealing with a leak at all. There is a major difference between naturally occurring water loss and a leaking pipe or damaged structure. Instead of struggling to diagnose leaks, call a local Puddle Pro for timely, reliable testing and assessments.
Pool Leak Detection Services: What to Expect
Whether you are dealing with a pool, spa or hot tub a dropping water level is always cause for concern. High heats and high traffic can cause natural water loss in outdoor pools. On average, you should expect to lose 3-5 inches of water on a weekly basis but if it is more than that, it is cause for concern. Traditionally, when pool owners find themselves having to refill swimming pools, they rely on a bucket test.
A bucket test involves filling a bucket with water and setting it out next to the poolside so they are exposed to the same conditions. It is important to mark the water level in each of these. After a couple of days, if the level in the pool has dropped significantly more than in the bucket, you are dealing with a leak. Next, it is important to identify what type of leak you are dealing with: structural or plumbing.
Dye Tests: This type of testing is best suited to tracking down leaks in structures or in pool liners. This process involves turning off the pool pump and letting water go still. Once still, coloured dyes are applied to pool basins in strategic areas. Because dyes weigh more than water they will be drawn to the vacuum created by a leak. Colours can be tracked to problem areas like slab cracks or tears in vinyl liners.
Pressure Testing: If you suspect that you might have a leak on your plumbing, a pressure test can help you to confirm it. When diagnosing a plumbing leak, pressure tests involve applying a steady stream of air to water lines. If this air comes into contact with a crack or leak, it will create air bubbles that can be tracked.
