Pool Leak Detection for Orlando

Find the source before water loss becomes a bigger problem

Orlando's College Park and Delaney Park pools have plumbing that has been in sandy soil since the 1920s, its lakefront lots sit on a water table that hides any leak, and its sand drains the rest straight down. If your pool is losing more than evaporation explains, Blue Science finds the source and quotes the repair separately.

Half the Orlando leak calls are summer evaporation, and the bucket test sorts that out in a day. The other half are real, and on an old College Park pool the first places we look are the skimmer throat and the light niche, while in Lake Nona it is the return fittings under a settled deck.

Leak clues in an Orlando pool

Blue Science team member From the leak crew

An autofill that never rests, air in the pump basket, a level that drops faster with the pump running, a deck slab that has settled into sand, or a jump in the water bill are the signs worth a call. Roots in College Park and Audubon Park find any gap in original PVC, and settling under newer decks opens return fittings.

Old light niches, skimmer throats, and main drain lines are the usual sources, and each is dye-tested during the visit.

A leak test in Orlando

From a bucket on the step to a marked spot

7:30 AM Bucket test read Yesterday's bucket tells us how much of the loss is evaporation and how much is not.
9:15 AM Pressure and dye Each line is isolated and pressure-tested; dye finds cracks around fittings and lights.
11:00 AM The mark The source is marked, photographed, and written up with the repair options.

How we find a leak

“Before I bring out the pressure rig in Orlando, I want to know how much of the loss is evaporation. Here is the order we work in.”

The bucket test before you call

Set a bucket on the top step, fill it to match the pool level, and mark both waterlines. Run the pool normally for 24 hours without adding water, which is long enough to tell even with daily storms, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year. When the pool drops noticeably more than the bucket, the loss is something other than evaporation, which is the answer in most of the 32 cities we serve.

Watch whether the loss changes with the pump off, whether air shows up in the pump basket, and whether a patch of the deck or yard stays damp; tell 321-275-1900 what you saw. With those details the inspection starts in the right place and the appointment runs more efficiently, since a simple pattern often tells common plumbing problems from structural issues before anyone gets in the water; 321-275-1900 takes the details.

How professional leak detection works

Finding leaks is what we specialize in, and our leak detection services begin at the equipment pad and waterline, pressure-test the suction and return lines, dye-test the fittings, lights, and skimmers, and inspect the shell for cracks where the evidence leads, across the 32 cities we cover. Hidden underground line leaks are located with pressure testing and advanced inspection technology before anyone cuts a Orlando deck, using the same methods for a spa as for a swimming pool, whatever daily storms, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year have done to the plumbing. Detection and repair are quoted separately, and our pool leak repair services give you a defined fix to approve rather than an open-ended search, so you're never dealing with a price based on guesswork, only an accurate quote for the fix, at 321-275-1900.

Repairs and the 60-day warranty

If Blue Science does the recommended repair, the leak detection is covered by a 60-day warranty. Once the leak is fixed we retest the line, and if a large leak was hiding a smaller one you hear about it before any further work, so the water waste stops for good and no damage is left to find.

Watch the waterline for the first couple of weeks and call 321-275-1900 if the level moves; prompt notice keeps the warranty follow-up simple. Every visit under our weekly pool services and pool maintenance plans includes a pool water level check, which is how routine pool care catches new pool leaks in Orlando before they turn into a bill. Licensed, insured, and certified (Florida Pool Contractor License CPC1459563), Blue Science stands behind the repair, and warranty questions go to a knowledgeable customer service team.

Questions Orlando 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, Greater Orlando

Why is my pool losing 1 inch of water a day?

It is almost certainly a leak. Evaporation in Orlando peaks around half an inch a day in a dry, windy heat wave and drops to almost nothing in humid weather, so an inch a day, every day, means water is leaving through the plumbing or the shell, whatever daily storms, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year are doing. The clue is where the level stops: at the skimmer, the skimmer or a return is the suspect; below the lights, look at the light niche or the main drain line; all the way down, the shell has a crack, and 321-275-1900 gets the test scheduled. Detection is warranted for 60 days in Orlando when Blue Science makes the recommended repair, in all 32 cities we serve.

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, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year are doing. What you cannot see from the deck, an Orlando leak detection visit finds by pressure-testing each line and dye-testing the fittings and the shell, the same routine across 32 cities. The 60-day detection warranty applies in Orlando when Blue Science makes the repair, across all 32 cities we serve.

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, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year 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 Orlando that takes a day and no tools, and finding the source takes the pressure and dye testing of a detection visit, one call to 321-275-1900. Our Orlando visit repeats the bucket test with the pump off and on, which separates plumbing leaks from shell leaks, in all 32 cities.

What is the most common cause of pool leaks in Orlando?

Plumbing and fittings, not the shell. Skimmer throats pull loose where the deck and the pool move differently, return lines crack where a deck has settled, and light niches and conduit corrode in wet ground; in Orlando, daily storms, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year speed up all three. Shell cracks are rarer and easier to see; the plumbing leaks hide under the deck, which is why the search starts under pressure rather than with a flashlight, in all 32 cities we serve. The repair is quoted separately in Orlando, and the 60-day warranty covers detection when we do the work; 321-275-1900 explains both.

Does a leaking pool get worse if I wait?

Yes, in three ways, and daily storms, pollen, and water warm enough for algae most of the year speed all three. Every day the autofill covers the loss you pay for water and for the chemicals that leave with it; water leaving under the deck washes out the fill and settles the deck, which opens more joints; and a pool that drops below the skimmer lets the pump suck air and run dry, which turns a leak call into a repair call. In Orlando the leak that started in spring is a bigger job by fall, which is why 321-275-1900 is worth a call early.
