Detecting and Fixing Liner Pool Leaks: What Every Pool Owner Should Know
A leaking vinyl liner can cause excessive water loss, structural damage, and costly repairs. Unlike other pool types, vinyl liner pools require specialized leak detection methods. At NJ Pool Patcher, we provide precise electronic leak detection to find and fix liner leaks quickly for homeowners in Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex, and Mercer counties.
Common Signs of a Liner Pool Leak
- Frequent Water Loss – More than ¼ inch per day may indicate a leak.
- Wrinkles or Floating Liner – Water seeping behind the liner can cause shifting.
- Soft Spots on the Pool Floor – Potential signs of erosion beneath the liner.
- Increased Chemical Usage – A leak dilutes chemicals, requiring more frequent adjustments.
- Air Bubbles in the Pump System – Can indicate a suction-side plumbing leak.
How We Detect and Repair Liner Leaks
Using electronic leak detection, we pinpoint leaks without unnecessary liner replacement. Our process includes:
- Thorough visual inspection of the liner for small tears or punctures.
- Electronic leak detection to locate even the smallest underwater leaks.
- Pressure testing to rule out underground plumbing issues.
- Professional repair solutions to restore your liner’s integrity.
Preventing Future Liner Leaks
- Avoid sharp objects in or around the pool.
- Maintain balanced water chemistry to prevent liner deterioration.
- Inspect pool fittings around skimmers, returns, and steps.
