Pool Repair?
Many pools have vinyl liners. As the pool ages, the vinyl liner will oftentimes become cracked. These cracks cause water to drain out of the pool, which can result in greater damage. One should never fail to repair this type of leak. The best way to repair this is to patch the crack or hole with a patch kit. These patch kits can be bought both in stores and online. There are different types of patch kits, some of which are meant to be used above water and some below the water. This type of pool repair is relatively simple.
Why is the inground pool liner growing I keep the chlorine at and the pH just above In two years the liner has grown at least a foot wrinkling. The ground drops 3 feet off one side of the pool.?
The cause of the wrinkle in the liner has little or nothing to do with the chemicals you add to the pool. The ground below the pool is shifting and will most likely slide. You might want to check the pool for leaks. One sign of a leak on the exterior of a pool would be a very green patch of grass or weeds in the area of the leak.

I live in Memphis Tn and I would like to know if you think my pool has a leak or is this normal evaporation My pool is 10 x 32 by 4 feet deep is this normal or do I 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.

How do you know if the pool filter is leaking?
I had a leak in the bottom of our gunite mosiac tile covered pool and was able to find it by lowering the water level to about 1 foot then dropping red dye slowly around the perimeter of the pool. The dye headed straight to the leak. We fixed the leak and have not had a problem since. To find a leak in a vinyl you can use the red dye,although the easiest thing to do is call your pool dealer and have them come and with a leak detector.Then use a clear patch or scrap piece of your liner(always cut in the shape of circle).
