Now that you've used your pool for a few weeks in the hot summer weather, you may have noticed that your water level has decreased more than usual. You may have a leak! Jaco Waterproofing has provided expert foundation waterproofing, basement crack repair, and pool leak repair services to the Cincinnati and Dayton areas for over 40 years, and they know the importance of fixing at leak in your pool as soon as it’s detected.

Consider the following reasons why you should get that leak fixed as soon as possible:

• Water loss. According to the California Urban Water Conservation Council, one small leak in a pool can make you lose up to 970 gallons of water in a 24-hour period. This adds up to 360,000 gallons a year, which is enough to refill a residential pool more than 12 times.
• Higher water bills. Losing the water in your pool means you need to keep refilling it to keep it at the proper level. Constantly putting water into a leaking pool will be reflected in your water bills.
• Wasted energy. If your pool is heated, then that warmed water is going to waste as it escapes through that leak. This waste will be apparent in higher energy bills.
• Pool damage. Leaking water can erode the underlying layer that supports your pool. This can weaken the walls and floor of your pool and result in structural damage.

Save water and energy by waterproofing your pool and sealing that leak. Call Jaco Waterproofing at (317) 833-2108 to speak to a professional about their waterproofing and crack repair services.
