Leak Detection in Moe

Moe sits at the western end of the Latrobe Valley, about 12 km from Morwell. The area is part of Latrobe City Council (postcode 3825). The Latrobe Valley gets hot summer days and cold, frosty winter nights, so pools and spas swing between heavy use and long quiet spells.

In Moe, hot and windy days push evaporation up, so it is easy to mistake a leak for normal water loss, or the other way round. Pinpointing the leak first means the repair is quick and nothing is dug up unnecessarily.

Under Victorian rules, any pool or spa that can hold more than 30 cm of water must be registered with Latrobe City Council, with a barrier compliance certificate lodged every four years. We service Moe regularly from our base in Sale, so give us a call to book in.

Common Questions About Pool Leak Detection in Moe

How do I know if my pool is leaking?
Try a bucket test: put a bucket of pool water on the step, mark both levels and compare after 24 hours. If the pool drops more than the bucket, you likely have a leak.

How much water loss is normal?
A few millimetres a day is normal evaporation in hot, windy weather. A steady drop of more than that, especially overnight or in mild weather, points to a leak.

How do you find the leak?
We check the skimmer, returns and lights, dye-test suspect spots, and pressure-test the underground lines to narrow it down.
