What do National City homeowners ask about leak detection?
How do I know if my National City pool is leaking or just evaporating?
Bucket test. Fill a bucket with pool water and sit it on the first step. Mark both levels. After 24-48 hours, if the pool dropped more than the bucket, you have a leak. If they match, it's evaporation.
Can you find leaks without digging up my deck?
Yes, almost always. Electronic detection locates leaks through the deck, so digging only happens once the leak is confirmed and the repair needs access.
How much water loss is normal for a pool in National City?
In National City, 1/4 inch per day from evaporation is normal in summer. More than that, especially with heavy wind, is worth a leak test.
