How to find a pool leak?

[Charlotte96]

My pool is leaking, but once it reaches underneath the skimmer box it stops leaking i am not sure where it is leaking or why it is leaking. Got any ideas of how to fix this problem. 

Thanks

Hi @Charlotte96,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

If you remove the skimmer box lid and inspect inside it, can you see any cracks in the walls or corners? 

Considering the leak stops once the water level drops below the skimmer box it sounds like there might be a crack in the skimmer box that is letting water leak out of it. 
 

If this is the case, unfortunately, I am not aware of a way that you could fully fix this without replacing the skimmer box. 

I'd suggest contacting a pool repair service for their assistance. 

You can use PC Products Marine Epoxy Putty to help stop the leak while you seek assistance or replace the skimmer box. 

Let me know if you have any further questions.
