The structural integrity of your pool is essential to keep it upright and usable! The best way to stop any breakdown or disaster before it happens is to conduct pressure and leak testing regularly. These simple tests (which we can run upon request) can save you thousands in pool repairs and re-plastering! Too much pressure in pipes can cause bursts or crack to form, polluting your pool water and leading to expensive and time-consuming digs and pipe replacements. Avoid this by having your filtration system and pump tested regularly by a professional who can adjust the water.
More importantly, however, is checking the pool pipes for leaks and pressure testing. If you have weak points in the plumbing around your pool and hot tub, the chances of a burst pipe rise. This can raise water costs and proposes a difficult and time-consuming problem. Testing water pipe pressure for leaks and weak points is the best preventative measure to keep your pool and hot tub working at optimal capacity. To test a water pipe, you will need a pressure stick. Using the pressure stick, you can measure the water pressure of the skimmer (or top layer of a water filter). As most pools will have several pipes, it is important to isolate each pipe and test the pressure individually. If you cannot find your popes, they may be buried or located near the pool pump. A professional, like us, can help you to locate and measure pressure.
If we locate a leak or weak point, rest assured we will work with you to replace and fix the pipe in question. Many leaks can be simply repaired or replaced along the leg of connection. The hard part is locating the leak! Luckily, Kelowna Pool Cleaning services has the tools, knowledge, and experience to test and locate any leaks or weak points in the pipe.
