Answer: In most cases Explanation: Pools should never be left empty to an extended period of time. A pool needs the weight of the water in it to keep the pool in the ground. A pool is like a boat and when the hydrostatic pressure under the pool gets greater that the weight of the shell it can float the pool out of ground causing damage to the shell and plumbing.
When a pool is temporarily emptied for service or repair the hydrostatic plugs in the bottom of most pools must be removed, while the pool is empty.
A pool that has emptied on it own is a red flag and the shell or liner must be inspected for cracks, bad seals or holes in the vinyl liner.
Additional inspection and repair from a leak detection company may be needed to identify the reason the pool lost it water and what repairs are needed. | Pool Inspections by Howard | Answer: No, never Explanation: Must have water | S&B Property Inspections LLC | Answer: No, never Explanation: No it would take water to complete inspection of equipment... | North State Inspections | | ProMatcher | Answer: No, never Explanation: You can do a partial inspection but not full | At Ease Home Inspection | Answer: No, never Explanation: A pool should have water in order to inspect fully. | Your Home Property Consultants | Answer: No, never Explanation: partialy | A & H PROPERTIES | | ProMatcher | Answer: Yes, always Explanation: yes- you can inspect the structure of the pool, but with it being empty, you are unable to test the mechanical aspect of the pool working | JKM Home Inspections |
