Pool Losing Water in La Jolla, CA
When a La Jolla pool has a pool that keeps losing water, the fix is usually straightforward once the cause is found.

- Worn valve or fitting seals at the equipment pad

- Look for wet spots or sinking decking near the pad or shell
- Note whether the loss changes when the pump is on vs. off
