Is it a leak?

What should I look for around the equipment pad?

Look for a wet pad when nothing has been running, drips at unions and pipe fittings, standing water under the pump, a pump that loses prime or needs priming every morning, air in the pump basket, or a filter pressure reading that has changed for no reason. Ground between the pad and the pool that stays soft or green without rain points to a leak in a buried line.

Leaks at fittings on the pad are the easiest to see and the least expensive to fix. Leaks in buried lines between the pad and the pool need to be located before anyone digs.
