One common reason for a leak is an issue with the O-ring in your filter. Thankfully, this is a pretty simple fix. Fixing a problem with the O-ring can be knocked out pretty quick.

Signs That Your O-ring Has Gone Bad
- Leaking Pool Filter – this might happen when the filter is under pressure or turned off.
- Decrease in Filter Pressure – check your filter pressure gauge, any gaps in the filter seal will cause the system to lose pressure.
- Reduced Water Level in Pool – especially for above-ground pools.

If you think your pool has a leak, maybe it’s time to take some action. The longer a leaky pipe or pool shell is leaking, the more costly the eventual fix will be.

After every job, we use our Check-A-Leak Leak Detector to make sure the pool has stopped leaking. Check A Leak utilizes two floats that compare the changes in water levels in two separate chambers of the unit. The two chambers consist of 1. Water that is isolated from the pool and that is affected only by rain and evaporation. 2. A tube that goes through the bottom of the body and is directly connected to the pool water.

The water level in the pool chamber is always the same as the level in the pool. The two floats respond to the changes in the two chambers. If there is a leak in the pool, the leak gauge moves down with the level of the pool while the other float remains at its original level. This change in relationship is easily seen on the leak gauge and the loss of water can be measured.

Pool light niches rarely leak, it’s extremely rare for a pool light to be leaking through the shell of the light niche, or around the light niche - 99% of the time a pool light is leaking, water is running out through the light conduit.

Here we are sealing up a light conduit from inside the pool, where it connects to the back of the light niche, using butyl tape, and epoxy.
