leaks at the beginning and end of each swimming season. Pools that are open all
year should be checked every three to six months. Pool leaks that go undetected
waste water and can cause additional damage to equipment, piping and even the
pool structure. Pool leaks do not repair themselves - they just get larger and
larger. Save money and prevent damage. Check your pool today.

A Leak was developed with the assistance of the U.S. Department of Energy.
Nationally, leaking pools represent millions of gallons of lost water and
resources. A single residential pool with just a 1/4" per day leak between
16,000 and 45,000 gallons of water annually.
This chart shows
how much water your pool can waste each year with a leak as small as 1/4"
per day. If your pool leaks 1/2" just double the numbers.

Leaky
pools require more chemicals and maintenance. Constantly adding water often
causes improper chemical balance and can result in algae problems. If water
levels drop too low in a pool, there is a risk of equipment damage and costly
repairs. Check A Leak will quickly and accurately tell if your pool is leaking.
USE CHECK A LEAK TODAY AND KNOW IF IT
LEAKS TOMORROW.
