Leak in vinyl liner pool

Recommended Posts

Hi I am a new pool owner and drained most of the inground vinly liner pool, then refilled it, after that it started to leak 2 inches a day.

I tried to find the leak using food coloring syringe but no luck 

There seems to be water under the vinyl on the shallow side,

Which areas should I focus on to find the leak?

I'd focus on the seams within 6 feet of the observed leak.  Remember that a leak can also travel.

I had a leak at a poorly-manufactured/sealed seam on 3-month-old above ground pool liner, and had a difficult time getting manufacturer to admit fault.  They wanted me to find Sharpie-written serial number and the leaky part and ship that to them for consideration; they would not allow one of their local dealers to come over to take a look.  I ended up patching that myself which lasted a few years, then my daughter and I replaced that with the one finally sent out as replacement.
