Running a small business means wearing every hat.

Some days we’re finding pool leaks. Other days we’re troubleshooting the office printer like it personally challenged us. 😂

It's always nice to wrap up a repair for our customers. This project was quite complicated. The spa had old ABS plumbing and the customer had been fighting with multiple leaks over the last few years from the aging ABS pipes IYKYK. We proposed doing a full repipe to eliminate the old ABS and install all new PVC. There was a few extras the team threw in for the customer and I greatly appreciate all the help and support to bring this project to a close.

Your pool light could be hiding more than you think.

Most homeowners look at their pool light and see exactly that a light.

But behind that fixture is a light niche and conduit that passes through the pool structure, and those areas can become potential leak points.

If the seal around the light conduit deteriorates or another failure develops around the niche, water can escape where you’d never be able to see it from the surface.

And here’s the tricky part: the light can still work perfectly fine. 💡

That’s why finding a pool leak isn’t always as simple as looking for a crack. Proper leak detection means testing the different potential leak points and narrowing down exactly where the water is escaping.

It’s one of those parts of your pool you probably never think about until there’s a problem.

Air Bubbles Coming From Your Pool Return Jets? Here’s What They Could Mean.

If your pool is blowing a steady stream of air bubbles from the return jets while the pump is running, it’s not always “just normal.”

In many cases, it’s a sign that air is being pulled into the system through a suction-side leak before the water reaches the pump.

Common causes include:
💧 A loose pump lid or worn O-ring
🔧 Cracked plumbing or fittings underground
⚙️ Leaks around valves or unions
🏊 Low water level allowing the skimmer to pull in air

While your pool may still seem to be working fine, a suction leak can reduce circulation, make your pump work harder, and eventually lead to more expensive repairs if left unchecked.

The good news? These issues are often much easier
and less expensive to fix when they’re caught early.

At Echo Leak Detection, we don’t guess. We use professional leak detection equipment to pinpoint the source so you’re only repairing what’s actually needed.

🚨 Is your auto-fill actually hiding a pool leak?

Your pool’s auto-fill is designed to keep the water level looking perfect.

The problem?

It can also hide a leak for weeks or even months.

As water escapes underground, the auto-fill quietly replaces it. From the surface, everything looks normal while your water bill climbs and thousands of gallons disappear.

A few signs to watch for:
💧 Your auto-fill seems to run more often than it used to.
💧 Your water bill has increased for no obvious reason.
💧 You never notice the pool water level dropping.
💧 The ground around your pool always seems damp.

By the time many homeowners realize something is wrong, they’ve already lost a significant amount of water.

If your auto-fill has been working overtime lately, it might not be doing its job—it might be covering up a hidden leak.

🚨 The First Signs of a Pool Leak Most Homeowners Miss

Most pool leaks don’t start with a giant crack or an empty pool. They start with small changes that are easy to overlook.

Here are the first things we tell homeowners to watch for:

💧 Your auto-fill is running more often.
If it seems like your pool constantly needs water, don’t assume it’s just the Arizona heat.

📉 The water level keeps dropping.
A little evaporation is normal. Having to add water every few days isn’t.

💵 Your water bill suddenly increases.
If your household water usage hasn’t changed but your bill has, your pool could be the culprit.

🌱 Wet spots or unusually green grass around the pool.
Water leaking underground often shows up as soggy soil or patches of grass that stay greener than the rest of your yard.

🪨 New cracks or settling around the deck.
Water can wash away the soil supporting your deck, causing movement over time.

💨 Air bubbles coming from the return jets.
If you notice bubbles while the pump is running, there could be a suction-side plumbing leak.

The good news? Catching a leak early is almost always less expensive than waiting until it causes structural damage.

At Echo Leak Detection, we don’t guess—we pinpoint the exact source so you only repair what’s actually leaking.

📞 If you’ve noticed one or more of these signs, it’s worth having your pool professionally inspected.

Even a small leak can cause serious damage over time. Water escaping underneath your pool or decking can wash away soil, create underground voids, increase your water bill, and eventually lead to more expensive repairs.

Finding the source early usually means less damage, a simpler repair, and fewer headaches. If your pool seems to be losing more water than usual, it’s worth having it checked.

Most people think a pool leak has to be a big crack in the plaster.

Myth: “If my pool is leaking, there must be a crack.”

❌ Not necessarily.

Many of the leaks we find have nothing to do with the pool shell at all.

Leaks can come from:
💧 Underground plumbing lines
💧 Skimmers
💧 Return fittings
💧 Pool lights
💧 Valves and equipment

That’s why we don’t guess we test.

At Echo Leak Detection, our job is to pinpoint the exact source of the leak before any repairs begin. The right diagnosis means less unnecessary digging, less damage to your backyard, and a repair that actually fixes the problem.

If your pool is losing more water than normal, don’t assume it’s just evaporation and don’t assume it’s a crack either.

A tiny leak can turn into a big excavation.

This leak was buried deep beneath the pool deck. What started as a small break in the plumbing required a large excavation to access but only after we knew exactly where it was.

That's why we never guess.

Before any digging starts, we take the time to accurately locate the leak. That means less unnecessary demolition, less disruption to your yard, and repairs focused exactly where they're needed.

The goal isn't to dig more. It's to dig once.

If your pool is losing water and you can't figure out why, we're here to help.

Myth: "You have to drain your pool to find a leak."

Not true.

In many cases, professional leak detection can be performed with the pool full using methods like pressure testing and dye testing. The goal is to accurately locate the source of the leak first without unnecessary guesswork or draining thousands of gallons of water.

Every pool is different, but finding the problem before starting repairs is always the first step.
