Successful Pool Detection and Repair Process:
Information Gathering
Before reaching out to Divine Saraphic Sac for leak detection, gather the following information:
1. Measure water loss: Determine how many inches of water the pool is losing over a 24-hour period.
2. Check for visible cracks: Inspect the pool for any visible cracks in the structure.
3. Look for wet spots: Check around the pool deck and surrounding areas for wet spots, such as constantly wet parking lots or wet spots in the grass.
4. Consider recent construction: Determine if there has been any recent construction activity near the pool area.
5. Note additional features: Identify if the pool has any in-floor cleaners, waterfalls, or fountains that could be contributing to water loss.
6. Consider evaporation: Evaluate if the water loss could be attributed to evaporation, especially in hot or dry climates.
Having this information ready will assist Divine Saraphic Sac in efficiently identifying and addressing any leaks or water loss issues in your pool.
Bucket Test
The bucket test is a simple method to determine if the water level drop in your pool is due to a leak or evaporation. Follow these steps to perform the test accurately:
1. Fill your pool to its normal level.
2. Fill a 5-gallon bucket with water and place it on the steps or shallow area of the pool.
3. Mark the water level on both the pool wall (using tape) and the bucket itself (using another piece of tape) to indicate the starting levels.
4. Wait for 24 hours without using the pool or adding any water.
5. After 24 hours, measure and note the amount of water loss in the bucket.
6. Compare the water loss in the bucket with the water loss in the pool.
If the water loss in the pool is greater than the water loss in the bucket, it indicates that there may be a leak in the swimming pool. This test helps differentiate between normal evaporation and potential leaks, assisting in identifying and addressing any issues with your pool’s water level.
Pool Pressure Test
A pool pressure test is a method used to detect leaks in the plumbing system of a pool.
Overall, a pool pressure test is an essential diagnostic tool for maintaining a properly functioning pool plumbing system and ensuring water conservation by promptly addressing any leaks.
If you notice a significant pressure drop during the test, it’s recommended to inspect the pool plumbing system carefully to identify and repair any leaks. Hiring a professional pool technician or plumber may be necessary for accurate diagnosis and repair of the leak.
Pump On/ Pump Off Test
The Pump On/Off test is a method used to determine if there is a leak in the pool plumbing or equipment.
Ensure that the pool water level is at its normal level, between the minimum and maximum levels indicated by the pool skimmer.
Turn off the pool pump and let the water settle for a few hours or overnight to allow the water level to stabilize.
Once the water level has stabilized, mark the current water level on the pool skimmer or on the pool wall using a piece of tape or a marker.
Turn on the pool pump and let it run for 24 hours without adding any water to the pool.
After 24 hours, recheck the water level and compare it to the marked level from before the pump was turned on.
- If the water level has dropped significantly while the pump was running, it could indicate a leak in the pool plumbing or equipment.
- If the water level remains relatively stable or drops only slightly (due to normal evaporation), it suggests that the pool plumbing and equipment are not the source of the water loss.
Performing the Pump On/Off test can help you determine if further investigation or repairs are needed to address any leaks in your pool system.
Pool Dye Test
A pool dye test is a simple yet effective method used to detect leaks in a swimming pool.
Pool dye tests are particularly useful for detecting small leaks that may not be easily visible, such as hairline cracks or tiny openings. However, for more complex or hidden leaks, you may need to consult a professional pool technician or leak detection specialist who can use specialized equipment to pinpoint the exact location of leaks.
Pool Leak Repair
We have technicians that have extensive experience in various leak repairs. A leak in the underground plumbing is usually the worst scenario for the pool owner. It will require excavating the pool deck or pool shell around the leak and replacing part of the underground plumbing. Leaks caused by structural cracks in the pool shell do not require excavation.
Pool Monitoring
Even after confirming that no further leaks exist, continue to monitor the pool’s water level regularly as part of routine maintenance. This helps detect any potential issues early on and prevents water loss or damage to the pool and surrounding areas.
By carefully monitoring the water level and staying vigilant for any signs of leaks, you can ensure that your pool remains in optimal condition and free from plumbing-related issues.
Pool Underground Sonic Leak Detection
Underground sonic leak detection is an advanced method used to locate leaks in the plumbing lines of a pool that are buried underground.
Underground sonic leak detection is a precise and non-invasive method that can accurately locate leaks without the need for extensive digging or disruption to the pool area. It’s particularly effective for identifying leaks in buried pipes, fittings, and valves that are not visible or accessible without excavation. Hiring a professional leak detection service with experience in underground sonic leak detection can help quickly identify and address leaks, minimizing water loss and potential damage to the pool’s infrastructure.
