Leak Detection for Swimming Pools
A leaking pool wastes thousands of litres, undermines surrounding ground and inflates water and heating bills — usually without an obvious source.
Leaks.ca is the educational leak detection hub and service-support division of Leak.ca, helping BC property owners understand leak risks and connect with professional detection services when needed.
Pools lose water through shell cracks, fittings, skimmers, returns and underground plumbing. Distinguishing true leaks from evaporation, and pinpointing them without draining, requires specialized testing.
- Shell and structural cracks
- Skimmer, return and fitting leaks
- Underground supply- and return-line leaks
- Equipment-pad and plumbing leaks
- Pressure-testing of pool plumbing lines
- Dye and acoustic testing of the shell and fittings
- Locating underground line leaks non-invasively
Why It Matters

Swimming Pools — Frequently Asked
A controlled test compares water loss with the pump on and off and against measured evaporation. If loss exceeds normal evaporation, targeted pressure and acoustic testing pinpoints the leak.
