What should be done if a leak is suspected in the pool?

If a leak is suspected in the pool, investigating and repairing it immediately is crucial to prevent further water loss and maintain chemical balance in the pool. Water loss can lead to several issues, including the potential for the pool structure to be compromised, increased chemical usage to maintain balance, and ultimately higher operational costs. Prompt repairs allow operators to manage water levels effectively and ensure that the water quality remains safe for swimmers.

In contrast, conducting regular vacuum cleaning does not address the issue of a leak. Ignoring the leak, even if the water level appears stable, can lead to significant problems over time, as the source of the leak might worsen and create more substantial repair needs. Waiting until the end of the season to address a leak could result in extensive damage and greater expenses, making immediate action the most responsible and effective course of action.
