Unfortunately, you will have to drain your pool. That way you are able to spot exactly where your leak is coming from and fix it more easily. Next you will need to get rid of rough edges by using a grinder until the area is smooth. Last, fill in the leak with a strong adhesive caulking and allow several days for it to dry before re-filling the pool.
I have etching in my inground concrette pool and i need to know how to fix it. the pool was made in 1973 i bought the house three years ago.
The pool return line is the one that returns the water form the filter to the pool. Usually you'll see holes in the side walls of the pool with little eyeball sockets where the water flows back to the pool.
Cement!

Consult an underground leak detection service that specializes in pool leaks. They may be able to fix with out tearing up the deck. Or, you can grab a kit. There are kits nowadays that you can use to find and stop leaks. Also, you can use a dye test! What you do is get a dye syringe and the dye will actually lead you to the leak by "leaking" into the hole. Then you can fix it with vinyl putty! And, VIOLA, it's fixed!!!!
You don't fix the leak on the water tower. It is not part of the island quest.
In the first place you Will continually loose water. however if it is a pressure line there is the risk that eventually the leak will suddenly expand and cause you too loose all the pools water without you being there to see what is happening that in turn wil lead to wrecking the pool pump.
Not if it is a vinyl liner pool. You have to fix the leaks. The walls will collapse and you will have to get a new pool. Fill it back up and call American leak detection or another company. I recommend them because they will come out and fix it until it is repaired. If you don't, you will probably have to pay for a brand new pool essentially. I didn't get my pool closed until the second week of october because of this. Finally they fixed it and I closed it.
You first of all have to find out what is causing the slab to heave. If you fix the slab then within a two year period you will be redoing the slab again. You may have a leak in the plumbing of the pool or a leak in the house plumbing or to the garden hose. Fix all the leaks and then replace the slab.
You need to identify the leak before you can fix it.
You have to replace it. They are designed to leak when they are going bad.
Replace the water pump.
