Non-Invasive Testing for Recurring Pool Water Loss

Frequent refilling can point to more than normal evaporation. At American Leak Detection of the Triad, we provide pool leak detection in Winston-Salem to identify whether water is escaping through the pool shell, skimmer and return fittings, underground plumbing lines, equipment connections, or nearby water features.

Backed by more than 40 years of industry experience, our trained technicians use advanced technology and non-invasive methods to locate leaks without unnecessary property damage. Our Leak Detection Without Destruction™ approach gives you clear information about the likely source before repair access or excavation is considered.

Common Signs of a Pool Leak

Watch for these signs of a possible pool leak:

Frequent changes in the water level
Cracks in or around the pool area
Wet soil or grass near the pool
Evidence of algae or mildew in the pool
Water stains
Higher water bills
Equipment that repeatedly loses prime
An autofill system that runs constantly
Frequent water additions beyond the usual maintenance routine

No single symptom confirms where a leak is located. Wet ground may indicate water escaping below the surface, while equipment problems or recurring water-level changes can point to concealed plumbing or connection issues. A professional pool leak inspection can distinguish expected water loss from a condition that warrants further action.

Pool Maintenance Tips

During routine pool care, check the water level, clean the filter, and look for evidence of a leak. Note changes in the water level, equipment operation, visible pool surfaces, and the soil surrounding the pool.

Escaping water can affect the yard and surrounding property, especially when the source is below the surface. These observations can help establish when the problem began, but they can’t identify the exact location of a concealed leak.

Why Is My Pool Losing Water?

Evaporation varies with humidity, wind, weather conditions, and normal pool use, so the amount of water lost can change from one period to another.

Water loss that continues beyond expected evaporation may come from the pool shell, skimmer, return lines, underground plumbing, equipment connections, or attached spa and fountain components. A visible crack or damp area doesn’t necessarily reveal the actual source because water can travel away from a concealed opening before it becomes noticeable.

If the water level is dropping rapidly or you’re adding water more often than usual, our trained technicians can investigate the system. We focus on locating the likely source so you have practical information before decisions are made about repair access.

What to Expect from Pool Leak Detection

We begin by reviewing the reported water loss and determining which parts of the pool system may need evaluation.

Pool leak testing may involve:

Pool structure: Examining accessible shell surfaces and suspected openings
Plumbing lines: Evaluating concealed lines for signs that water may be escaping
Fittings: Checking skimmer and return fittings and other system connections
Equipment and water features: Inspecting accessible connections to pool equipment and attached spas or fountains, as applicable

Our non-invasive approach is designed to narrow down the source without unnecessary damage to the pool area. We explain the findings and the next steps supported by the inspection. With our Know Before You Go approach, you receive honest, upfront pricing. Our technicians also treat your property respectfully and leave the premises clean when the job is done.
