When a property owner suspects that the swimming pool is leaking, the first inclination may be to ignore the problem if it doesn’t seem all that bad. The second inclination may be to start worrying and lose sleep over what might be wrong and how much it will cost to fix. It’s best to have a pool service technician come to the property and find the leak before the situation escalates. Even if the leak does not get worse, a pool losing water must continually add more water than would be the case due to evaporation and splash-out. That costs money. More Pool Cleaning Chemicals also must be added, and it can be difficult to keep those substances in proper balance. In fact, if the property owner has a regularly scheduled pool service to clean debris from the equipment and to check and balance chemicals, changes in chemical balance may alert the technicians to a leak.
Fortunately, most leaks are not expensive to repair. The cost of Swimming pool leak repair service may not be much more than spending money on extra water and Pool Cleaning Chemicals throughout the season. Depending on the extent of the leak, a property owner might spend an extra $20 or more on the monthly water bill.
A pool that has a daily loss or a loss of two inches or more every few days requires more urgent attention. Pools that require constant water level monitoring are very likely to experience further failure from the migrating water, and any structures near to your pool, like a house for example, also can be damaged by the leaking water.
In the long run, it’s best to have a company such as Atlantic Pool Leak Detection investigate the problem and fix the leak. This type of organization provides routine cleaning service to pool owners who want to do their own maintenance.
