Pool Leak Detection
Non-destructive swimming pool leak detection for shells, plumbing, fittings, skimmers, lights and water features.
The Problem We Solve
Pool water loss is often blamed on evaporation, but hidden leaks can waste water, chemicals and electricity. Leaks can occur in the pool shell, plumbing lines, skimmers, returns, lights, main drains, spas or water features.
HydroTrace Solution
HydroTrace tests the pool systematically to separate normal water loss from actual leakage. We check the structure, fittings and plumbing so repairs are targeted instead of guessing.
Our Step-By-Step Process
- Confirm the water loss symptoms and compare operating conditions.
- Inspect visible fittings, equipment and water level behaviour.
- Pressure test suspect plumbing lines where suitable.
- Check shell, skimmer, light, return and drain areas.
- Provide targeted repair guidance.
Why This Matters
- Avoids unnecessary pool draining
- Reduces damage from blind breaking
- Saves water and chemicals
- Identifies shell versus plumbing leaks
- Useful for homes, estates and commercial pools
Best For
- Residential swimming pools
- Complex and estate pools
- Hotel and lodge pools
- Spas and jacuzzis
- Water features

Pool Leak Detection FAQs
How do I know my pool is leaking?
If the pool loses more water than expected from evaporation, or the loss changes when the pump runs, a leak investigation is recommended.
Do you need to drain the pool?
Usually not for initial testing. Some repairs may require water level changes depending on the leak location.
Can pool plumbing be pressure tested?
Yes, where access and pipe condition allow.
