How Leak Detection Works in Ocoee
In a hot climate, it’s normal to see a bit of water loss in swimming pools. High heat and sunshine will cause water to evaporate, and every cannonball is splashing water out. Natural water loss is all fine and good, but if you’re dealing with a pool leak, it’s a major problem. On average, swimming pools are holding onto thousands of gallons of water at any given time. Even a pinhole leak means major water loss, so schedule your Ocoee pool leak detection service at the first sign of trouble!
How to Identify Signs of a Swimming Pool Leak: A Quick Guide
For pool owners in central Florida, it’s important to know the difference between natural water loss and the symptoms of a water leak. The most obvious sign of water loss in a swimming pool is a drop in water level. You can expect to see somewhere between 2-5 inches of water loss over a week, depending on climate and rate of use. If you find yourself having to refill your pool water daily, there is likely a leak somewhere in your system.
High Utility Bills: As a homeowner, you likely have an idea of what your average monthly bills should be. If water bills shoot up without an explanation, it could be due to a leak in your pool.
Standing Water: If there are puddles of standing water in the area surrounding your pool, it might be due to an underground or plumbing leak.
Difficulty Balancing Chemicals: When water is leaking out of your pool, it will carry chemical treatments out along with it. As chemicals seep out, water chemistry will start to spiral. If you aren’t able to balance water chemistry and you can’t tell why, the problem might be a leak.
If you’re having a hard time marking the water level in your pool, ask a local Puddle Pro about a bucket test. This straightforward test helps to measure water loss. A bucket of water is set out next to the swimming pool, and the water line is marked in each. If the level in the pool drops significantly more than the level in the bucket, it’s a clear sign of a leak.
Swimming Pool Leak Detection: How Puddle Gets It Done
Identifying a swimming pool leak is tough, but figuring out the type and isolating the problem area is even more difficult. Puddle pool leak detection specialists come equipped with state-of-the-art detection equipment used to determine whether or not you’re dealing with a structural or plumbing leak.
Dye Tests: When searching for structural leaks, dye tests are effective for noting the presence of a pool leak and tracking down the problem area. This process involves turning off the pool pump and strategically applying dyes to basins. Leaks create vacuums that draw in water. Because dyes weigh more than water, they will be drawn to the damaged area, creating a vibrant trail right to the source of the problem.
Pressure Testing: Plumbing systems in pools are at risk of damage, corrosion, wear and tear. In the event that these areas have sprung leaks, it’s extremely difficult to notice until water loss has gotten out of control. Puddle technicians use pressure testing to track down leaks within lines and equipment. The process involves applying a stream of airflow to systems. When air comes into contact with damage, it will create visible bubbles in the return lines.
Ocoee Leak Detection: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you find a pool leak?
We test the pool in stages rather than guessing. Pressure testing tells us whether the plumbing lines are holding, and dye testing shows where water is escaping at fittings, cracks, lights, skimmers and returns. Checking both the structure and the plumbing matters, because a pool can leak from more than one place.
Is leak detection invasive? Will you need to dig up my yard?
Detection itself is non invasive. Pressure and dye testing are done from the pool and the equipment, without digging. Excavation only comes into the conversation if a leak is confirmed in an underground line, and then the testing tells us where to open up rather than searching blindly.
What happens if you find a leak?
We show you where it is and explain the repair options. Many leaks at fittings, skimmers, lights or small cracks can be repaired directly. Larger structural or underground plumbing repairs are quoted separately so you can decide with the full picture.
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.
