How to find a leak in the pool?
The first thing you should do when we have a loss of water in the pool, is trying to find the leak.
The solution will provide you with our swimming pools waterproof varnish is indicated when we found the source of the leak, or a structural leak.
In the summer months most pressing heat, hot wind and solar radiation, we can lose up to 15 mm. a day, so we must take this into account.
We see that loss of water is not or skimmer, or in the piping system, or in the filtration system (which is not a hydraulic leak). In the event that water loss is due to a hydraulic leak, you should first try to fix water leaks from the pool solving the possible hydraulic failure.
TYPES OF LEAK in a pool:
There are two types, mainly hydraulic and structural.
Are hydraulic leaks around the filter system and re-circulation of the pool. (This type of leak are not solved with waterproof coating for swimming pools.
Structural are the worst because they affect the glass and are much harder to detect, but leaks in connections with drivers, sockets, outlets, (Never apply silicone to repair the joints, if then will use the waterproof varnish).
HOW TO TRY TO FIND A LEAK IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE POOL?
It is difficult to find a structural failure in the pool, unless you see with the naked eye or debugging have room adjoining the pool and there is leakage.
The first thing to look for, if we have the leak to the view are bubbles that try to look at the joints of the glass with the drivers, making the clean-funds, skimmers or sink.
Typically, if there is a structural filtration is there. (Remember that these elements are introduced into the vessel through a hole thereof).
If bubbles have an area that are not connected to the hydraulic system, possibly there is also leakage.
In any case, if we localized bubbles, "clean" and left 24 h. After this we go back to look and if they persist, it is more likely that the problem is there.
Never apply silicone caulks the joint to repair leaks, if after we apply a waterproof coating for swimming pools, since the silicone applied, then varnish grip prevent us well in the tile or tile.
If we have not located the problem, we can repair or seal all joints of returns, by ensuring that the leak is not there. (Never use, with silicone putty), you can use our UNION BRIDGE for mortar or cement screeds.
We fill the pool once again dry all sealing work, to check if we have solved the loss of water in our pool tile, tiles or work.
If you continue to water loss, all you can do is leave it empty itself to a point. We left the water until it stops, watching daily. As it will stop at a point where we can give more clues.
