Water Damage from Leaking Swimming Pool in Miami Beach?
4/5/2022 (Permalink)
Our local team in Miami Beach sees all kinds of water damage inside and outside of structures. A leaking swimming pool can weaken your pool and home’s foundation and waste thousands of gallons of water each month. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends following these steps to determine if your pool is leaking:
- Grab a clear container and a marker
- During the test period, turn off the pool auto-fill, do not manually add water to the pool, and avoid splashing water out of the pool
- Put the container on the pool steps and mark the water level on the outside of the container
- Now, fill the container with pool water up to the mark you just made, so the levels match
- Mark the water level inside the container
- Now, wait and give evaporation time to work, usually two to three days. If it rains or is windy, you’ll have to perform the test again.
- Place the container on the pool steps. If the water in the pool is lower than the water in the container, you have a leak
- If both the pool level and the container water levels are the same, you do not have a leak
