Pools tend to leak in certain ways and in certain places and this information is used by leak detection specialists to find pool leaks. The testing process can get you close to the leak location but it is the experience of the person looking for the leak that is most helpful to help interpret the results of the tests properly. If you are a pool owner then you do not have the benefit of years and years of working on swimming pools. Without this experience it makes it harder for you to find leaks in your pool, but not impossible.

You performed your regular seasonal maintenance on your pool and immediately became concerned when you noticed your pool water level. The water level is well below the average level, and now you are beginning to panic. The first thing to ask is what is the cause of the drop in water level. Is it pool evaporation or a leak?

Before becoming too concerned about a leak you can do a simple test to determine if water loss in your swimming pool is due to a leak or is just evaporation. This simple test is called the bucket test.
