Like other components of a home, your Austin swimming pool may have issues from time to time that need to be addressed. And one thing that you should keep an eye on is the plumbing.
If you notice plumbing problems, it’s crucial to have them identified and rectified immediately. Leaving these issues to worsen can cause significant damage to your pool.
Here are a couple of tell-tale signs that your pool plumbing needs attention.
Leaks
Leakages can occur in all sorts of areas of your Austin swimming pool, including the following:
- Walls
- Floor
- Liner
- Skimmer
- Jets
- Drain
Basically, wherever there is a plumbing line in and around the area, a leak can occur. And in some cases, more than one leak may be present at the same time.
The thing is, it can be difficult to spot a leak, especially as the water evaporates, which is typical under the hot Texan sun. That said, identifying a leak as soon as possible is crucial. And one way to do that is to look at the water line and see if it’s always lowered.
In this case, you may be finding yourself topping up the water more often than necessary. Without a quick diagnosis, the leakage can start to erode the pool’s foundation and lead to serious structural damage.
Low Water Pressure
If your Austin pool’s water pressure is low, this could also be a sign of an issue with your plumbing. It could even be that the pipes are very old and outdated and may be too thin to pump enough water and allow for ample flow. In this case, your plumbing system may need a complete overhaul.
