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.
It depends on the kind of leak. Does the water drain while the pool lines are closed off? Does if leak faster or slower while the pool is running? Are the little bubbles blowing out of the return lines? All of these can indicate leaks of different types.

with the use of skilled professionals to dive the pool and pressure test the lines
Pressure test the lines with air. 20 lbs for and hour will show a good seal, and no leak.
No, I have not used homemade pool leak dye to identify leaks in my pool.
To effectively detect an inground pool leak, you can use specialized techniques such as a pressure test, dye testing, or electronic leak detection. These methods can help accurately pinpoint the location of the leak in your pool.
That depends on the construction and finish of the pool.
To find a leak in your pool, you can conduct a simple bucket test. Fill a bucket with pool water and place it on the pool steps. Mark the water level inside the bucket and on the pool. Check after 24 hours. If the pool water level drops more than the bucket, you likely have a leak.
A good way to see if you have a leak in your pool is to # take a bucket and fill it with water from your pool. # mark it at the water level. # mark the pool at the water level. # wait a few days if there is no leak in the pool then the water level in the bucket should have reduced by the same amount as the water level in the pool, however if the water level in the pool has gone down more then the water level in the bucket you have a leak in the pool or in the pipes around the pool.
Leak detection dye can be purchased at any number of pool repair/maintenance companies/websites; it can also be found on eBay. There is no powder you can put into a swimming pool to detect a leak.
To find a leak in an inground pool, you can conduct a dye test by adding dye near suspected areas and observing for any movement towards the leak. You can also inspect the pool equipment, check for wet spots around the pool, and use a pressure test to identify the leak location.
