Recognizing the Indicators of a Structural Leak

The high-desert climate of Northern Nevada makes it difficult to distinguish between normal environmental loss and a mechanical failure. However, certain patterns indicate that the integrity of your pool is compromised. You might notice the waterline dropping faster than a simple bucket test would suggest, or an autofill valve that never seems to shut off.

Common warning signs of an active leak include:

• Soggy Terrain: Soft or settled spots in the yard, especially along the path of buried plumbing lines.
• Structural Shifts: New cracks in the deck, tile line, or separation around skimmer throats and returns.
• Hydraulic Anomalies: Air bubbles appearing in the pump basket or equipment that loses prime unexpectedly.
• Chemical Fluctuations: Difficulty maintaining chemical balance because fresh water is constantly diluting the system.

Catching these issues early is the most convenient way to avoid the costly soil washout that undermines concrete decks and surrounding structures.

Why Fernley Homeowners Trust Our Expertise

Fernley pool owners choose American Leak Detection of Northern Nevada because we understand the unique environmental challenges of Northern Nevada. Our local soil often allows leaked water to travel long distances through backfill and pipe trenches before any surface signs appear, making basic visual checks unreliable. We combine this local insight with advanced technology to provide the most convenient diagnostic experience available.

• Local Climate Knowledge: We know exactly how Fernley’s intense sun and dry winds put mechanical stress on tile lines and fittings, allowing us to check high-risk areas first.
• Non-Invasive Technology: We prioritize acoustic sensors and electronic tools to find the breach without turning your backyard into a construction zone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I confirm if my Fernley pool has a real leak?

The most effective method is a "Bucket Test." Place a bucket on a pool step and fill it to the same level as the pool. After 24 to 48 hours, if the pool level has dropped significantly more than the water inside the bucket, you have a confirmed leak that requires a professional isolation test.

Will you have to tear up my deck to find the plumbing failure?

No. Our objective is surgical accuracy. By using ultrasonic listening devices, we can "hear" the leak through the deck and soil, narrowing it down to a specific radius. We only discuss access points after we have pinpointed the breach, ensuring any disruption to your yard is minimal and purposeful.

What should I do if my autofill is running constantly?

A constantly running autofill is a primary indicator of a major leak. We recommend turning off the autofill temporarily to see how quickly the water level drops. This data is invaluable during our diagnostic visit. Once the drop rate is established, we can isolate the plumbing lines to find the failure point.

What happens if the issue is a simple equipment failure?

During every visit, we perform a functional audit of your pumps, filters, and valves. Many suspected leaks are actually seal failures at the equipment pad or a malfunctioning backwash valve. Identifying these mechanical faults early can save you from invasive structural testing and immediately stabilize your water consumption.
