Answer: In some cases
Explanation: At an additional cost as it is timely and the equipment is not cheap. | | AAA Pool Inspector | Answer: In some cases
Explanation: Most pools do not require a pressure test of the underground plumbing. If the pool is running and shows no signs of water loss, I generally don’t recommend a pressure test. Pressure testing is done typically by a leak detection company at a cost of $400-$600.
As an additional service to the pool inspection I can perform is a leak test on the pool. An electronic device called a Leak tracker can be put on the pool during the inspection and it can monitor the level very accurately to identify and small drop in the water level. This additional service is available for $150.
If a drop in water level is determined I would refer the customer to a leak detection company for a pressure test and leak detection. | | Pool Inspections by Howard | Answer: Always
