IMPORTANT POOL LEAK TESTS
THAT HELP US DETERMINE THE ORIGIN OF YOUR POOL LEAK AND WHETHER A DIVER OR PIPE TEST IS NEEDED
POOL PUMP ON OR OFF - LEAK TEST:
Are you losing more water with the pool pump off or on? Run the pool pump for so many hours and compare for the same period of time with the pump off. If you lose more water running the pool pump, that typically means the leak is in the return or Polaris lines. If you lose more water with the pool pump off that generally means the leak is in a suction line - the skimmer or main drain line. If you lose at the same rate it is generally in the interior of the pool - light leak, hole in liner or crack in gunite pool.
ANOTHER LEAK TEST YOU CAN DO:
Plug the pool lines (be sure to unplug your pool pumps) or just run off the main (if you have one) by shutting off the skimmer valve(s) at the front of pump. Now lets see where your water level goes over the next several days.

Why use Pool Pro of Long Island for Leak Detection?
We guarantee to find the pool leak no mater how long at takes (at a flat rate - not hourly charges)
We only do Pool Leak Detection - We won't try to sell you a new liner, (we don't replace liners) most liners are repairable. We also pinpoint pipe leaks and will guarantee to find the leaks underground or we don't charge if we can't locate them. We don't re-pipe pools so it is not in our interest to suggest a re-pipe.
Maybe 90% of the time you have a leak in the pipes or in the interior of the pool (not both). By asking the customer to do the pump on/off test we try to minimize our labor charges by performing only a dive inspection or by a pressure test of the pipes. See above for the PUMP test.
When should you consider replacing your Vinyl Liner
- The Liner is more than 10 years old
- The liner is faded - which might indicate the Liner is aging, lost elasticity or brittle
- Over time the liner loses its elasticity making it susceptible to damage (actually cracking) or difficult to repair
- Money is not a primirary concern and you like the look of a new liner
Most of the time it makes sense to pinpoint the underground pipe Leak
Things to consider:
- Age & type of pool piping - flex PVC, black poly or rigid PVC?
- Distance from pool to Equip - how many lines have to be replaced?
- How extensive/expensive is the patio material - brick, concrete, Stone or deck?
- Can it be precisely located - Is there something like a huge 5 ft. high waterfall as an obstacle (to find, repair or replace it)
