Is Your Pool Losing Water? How Foley Pools’ Leak Detection Services Can Help
Leak Detection
A hidden pool leak can lead to costly repairs if not addressed early. If you’ve noticed your pool’s water level dropping faster than usual, or you’re facing higher water bills, your pool may have a leak.
At Foley Pools, we specialize in precise and thorough leak detection services to identify and resolve leaks before they escalate. Learn more about how our professional team can help keep your pool in peak condition.
Pools lose water due to evaporation, splashing, and normal maintenance activities, but if you’re consistently adding more water than usual, there may be an underlying issue. Left undetected, even small leaks can cause:
Increased Water Bills
A leaking pool requires constant refilling, which leads to higher water expenses over time.
Structural Damage
Water escaping from the pool can weaken the surrounding structures, including decking, walls, and landscaping, potentially leading to more extensive damage.
Chemical Imbalance
Leaks affect your pool’s chemical balance, which means more frequent adjustments and higher costs for chemicals.
Erosion Around the Pool
Water leaking into the soil around your pool can lead to soil erosion, causing costly structural issues.
Why is Leak Detection Important?
Not sure if your pool is leaking? Here are some common indicators that suggest you may have a problem:
Noticeable Water Loss
If you’re losing more than 1/4 inch of water per day, this may signal a leak.
Cracks or Gaps
Visible cracks in the pool’s surface or around the deck area could mean water is escaping through structural damage.
Air Bubbles in the System
If you notice air bubbles in your pool’s return lines, it could indicate a leak in the system.
Wet Spots Around the Pool
Persistent damp areas or soil erosion near your pool could be a sign of an underground leak.
