How To Use The Bucket Test To Confirm If Your Pool Is Leaking
The Bucket Test can be used to determine if you have a leak in a swimming pool by following these steps:
1) Fill a regular normal bucket with pool water: Using the same pool water fill a regular bucket with water to 1-2 inches from the top of the rim. The purpose of using the same pool water is to ensure you have the same temperatures.
2) Carefully place the bucket in the pool: Position the bucket inside the pool in a way the bucket is in level with the waters in your swimming pool. The best place to place it is on the pool steps. To ensure the bucket is held in place put something heavy into the bucket.
3) Make marks of the water level: Mark the water levels inside and outside the bucket using a tape or a water resistant marker.
4) Monitor and wait for 24hrs: Ensure unnecessary disturbance of the pool for 24 hours then observe the water levels in the bucket and swimming pool. If the water level in the bucket and pool remains the same, then there is no leak in the pool, but if the water levels in the pool have dropped more than the water in the bucket, then there is cause for alarm for a possible leak in the pool.
5) Repeat the test under different conditions: Repeat the test under different conditions to establish where the leak might be. Repeat the test with the pool pump off. The following results could further help stipulate if the leak is in pipework or the pool structure.
