Swimming Pool Leak Detection Checklist

Before having a leak detection performed, verify your rate of water loss. Use the bucket test and the water loss calculator to determine your rate of water loss.
Before the leak specialist arrives to perform the leak detection, your pool should be clean and clear, at the normal full level. Cloudy water is a sign of bacterial infestation and the pool should not be entered by anyone.
Information needed to give an accurate swimming pool leak detection quote:
- How many pumps and skimmers does the pool have?
- Is a spa or water feature attached?
- What are the construction materials? Gunite, vinyl, fiberglass, pebbletech, or above-ground?
- What is your pool's chemical system? Chlorine or salt-water system?
- Is there an auto-fill system?
- Is there an automatic cleaning system? If so, what kind?
- How many light fixtures are in the pool or spa?

"Very Professional"
“Next day service. I received a call from the city informing me of the possibility of a leak. I checked the meter and started calling plumbers. I was referred to American by a plumber here in Washougal. I called, got the answering service, and received a call back in under 1/2 hour. Set up a service call for the following day. Tony and Gary were very professional, had all the right equipment needed to find the leak and discovered the problem in just a short time. Fortunately, the problem was not complex and easily resolved, but I never would have found the leak without their help. Will definitely keep their number handy.”
