Just moved in June and we’ve spent a lot of time and money getting this old pool up and running. New coping stones, new tile, replastered, caulked, new LEDS and light rings, new pump installed.
The entire pool deck is riddled in various cracks that lead all the way to the pool. The caulk around the pool feels mushy, as if it’s filling with water, in various spots all the way around. We decided to address everything else except the pool deck this season. Everything was going great until last week; we suddenly lost 3 inches overnight, and the skimmers were sucking air. I’ve been refilling the pool every other day since then. No signs of any leak around our pump, filter, or backwash line. Could the pool be leaking out into these various cracks?
Pool details: 18000gal plaster pool, Hayward S244T sand filter, Pentair intelliflo 3 VSF.
