What do Lakeside homeowners ask about leak detection?
How do I know if my Lakeside pool is actually leaking versus just evaporating?
Run a bucket test. Fill a bucket with pool water, set it on the first step, and mark the water level on both the bucket and the pool. Check back in 24 to 48 hours, if the pool dropped more than the bucket did, you've got a leak. If the drops match, that's just evaporation.
Can a leak get located without digging up my whole deck?
Almost always, yes. Electronic detection finds the leak's location through the deck itself, so digging only happens once the leak is confirmed and repair actually requires access.
How much water loss is considered normal for a Lakeside pool?
About a quarter inch a day from evaporation is typical in summer. Losing more than that, especially during windy stretches, is worth a proper leak test.
