Testing your pool's evaporation rate (Bucket Test):
- Begin with the pool or water feature at its normal level
- Turn auto-fill off
- Fill a 5-gallon bucket with water to within 3 or 4 inches of the top.
- Place the bucket on a step or otherwise raise its top above the water line.
- Mark the level of the water inside the bucket, using a crayon or piece of tape
- Mark the level of the pool or spa on the outside of the bucket.
- After a couple of days, mark the new levels, inside and outside.
- If the pool and bucket level differ more then 1/2", you may have a leak.
With our electronic leak detection methods we will find the exact source of the leak quickly, accurately and in the most cost effective manner.
