Pool Leak Detection for Miromar Lakes
Find the source before water loss becomes a bigger problem
Miromar Lakes pools sit on fill beside the lake with the water table at the surface, so a leaking line never shows above ground, and the spas, spillovers, and feature lines on most pads give a leak several places to hide. If the level keeps dropping after the bucket test, or the summer water bill did not match an empty house, Blue Science finds the source and quotes the repair separately.
On a Miromar Lakes pool we isolate the spa, the features, and each return loop and pressure test them one at a time, because a spillover that drains overnight looks exactly like a pool leak until the lines are separated, and the lake-side skimmer joint gets tested next.
Where a Miromar Lakes pool loses water
From the leak crew
A spa that drops to the spillover overnight, a feature pump that keeps catching air, a level that falls faster with the returns on, a coping joint that opened on the lake side, or a water bill that climbed while the house was empty are the clues worth a call. Fill and lake water between them hide the loss, so the pad and the pool have to tell the story.
Spa check valves, feature lines, skimmer throats on settled lake-side corners, and return fittings on builder-grade plumbing are the usual sources, and each is dye-tested during the visit.

Questions Miromar Lakes Pool Owners Ask
Can the high water table hide a leak?
It can change the reading. Groundwater pushing in from outside can slow a shell leak while the pump is off and let it run when the pump is on. That is why I test with the pump running and again with it off before I go looking for the spot.
Answered by a Blue Science leak technician, Southwest FloridaWhy is my pool losing 1 inch of water a day?
Three things drop a pool an inch a day, and only one of them is normal. Evaporation on the hottest Miromar Lakes days can take up to half an inch, daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use permitting; splash-out and backwashing take a little more on a busy weekend; everything past that is a leak. Pressure-side leaks show up as a wet spot or a pump that spits air, suction-side leaks as air in the pump basket, and shell leaks as a level that stops dropping at the same spot every time, which our leak detection visit sorts out with pressure tests and dye in any of the 17 cities we cover. Our Miromar Lakes leak detection visit starts at the equipment pad and works toward the shell, with daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use in mind, and repairs are quoted separately once the source is found.
How can I find out where my pool is leaking from?
Watch the level, then test the lines. Mark the waterline, turn off the autofill, and note where the pool settles over a day or two, the skimmer mouth, the return fittings, the light niche, and the main drain each showing a different stopping point, whatever daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use are doing. What you cannot see from the deck, a Miromar Lakes leak detection visit finds by pressure-testing each line and dye-testing the fittings and the shell, the same routine across 17 cities. In Miromar Lakes the visit starts at the equipment pad and works toward the shell, with daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use in mind.
What is the easiest way to find a leak in a pool?
The bucket test. A bucket on the top step, filled to the pool's level and marked, loses water only to evaporation, daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use included; the pool loses water to evaporation and to any leak. Compare the two lines after 24 hours with the autofill off and the gap is the leak; in Miromar Lakes that takes a day and no tools, and finding the source takes the pressure and dye testing of a detection visit, one call to 239-286-7700. Turn the autofill off first in Miromar Lakes, or the test measures nothing, whatever daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use do.
What is the most common cause of pool leaks in Miromar Lakes?
The skimmer, first and by a wide margin. The throat where the skimmer meets the shell moves every time the deck and the pool move differently, and in Miromar Lakes, daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use keep them moving. Return fittings and light niches come next, then underground lines where a deck has settled, and shell cracks last; each shows a different pattern in the water level, and the dye test confirms it in minutes, as it has across 17 cities. The repair is quoted separately in Miromar Lakes, and the 60-day warranty covers detection when we do the work; 239-286-7700 explains both.
Is it a leak or evaporation in Florida weather?
Evaporation depends on the weather, meaning daily storms, Gulf salt air, and year-round use; a leak does not. In Miromar Lakes the same conditions can push evaporation to about half an inch a day at the worst, and it slows in humid or cool weather, while a leak loses the same amount every day. If the loss is steady through a rainy week or a cool one, it is a leak, and the bucket test settles it in a day, the first step in every one of the 17 cities we serve.
