my pool liner created a leak after its last cleaning. It is a 16x24 expandable liner. its about 11 years old. It has leaked all the way down to the expandable part of the liner. I have went around the water line and did not see or feel anything there. I marked the area today to see if it continues to leak. Recommendations on finding the hole with the remaining water still in it.
 
Hey there David.... welcome to TFP and Happy New Years! Lets make it a great pool year :)

Usually if a liner has a leak it continues to lose water until just under the damage. It can be almost a pin prick sized hole.
Have you checked around the equipment for wet spots in case the leak is actually there?? Or in the yard...a wet spot in the ground?? A pipe break may be the culprit?


Worse case is you need a new liner.... 11 years is a pretty good run, but many who follow TFP chemistry find liners can last longer.
