Need help with a leak..
I am working on a custom concrete pool with stone siding going a 1/4 of the way down. The water levels out 1 inch below the bottom of the stone work.
I have die tested, checked the returns and have run out of ideas. Is it possible for the light to be at fault even though the water stays above it?
Any ideas would be great. The pool lost 1 inch in about an hour so should be pretty easy to find, but ???
Thanks to everyone.

Sounds like a broken light conduit seeking the level of the damage. Also, test all plumbing including autofill equalizer.

Thanks, I kind of thought of that when I got home, but wasn't sure. Thanks again. I'll give it a try on Sat. when I return.

The light isolator Lance sells for the vinyl pool leak testing works well to isolate the light for testing. It also works on main drains.
