Certified Pool Repair Divers: The Best Way to Repair Your Pool Without Draining It

Any way you look at it, pool leaks can be a big headache! When a pool is leaking, the water chemicals are always out of balance making it very difficult to keep your water clear. Then, extra pool chemicals are needed more often just to get it balanced again. It also makes it hard to stay heated due to having to constantly add cold water. Both of these are costing you money. Additionally, if the water level in your pool gets low, it is possible that structural problems may start to occur. The good news is leak detection and repairs can be a pain-free process without needing to drain your pool if you use a certified pool repair diver. A diver can perform year-round leak location and repair of your pool using the most modern, electronic leak-locating devices along with visual underwater verification via scuba diving.Along with leak detection and repair, utilizing a certified diver is the perfect way to install and maintain anti-entrapment or safety drain covers that are compliant with the VGB Pool & Spa Safety Act. Safety drain covers are one of the most important factors in keeping children and adults safe from entrapment incidents in pools and spas.Drain entrapments are frequently the result of a swimmer’s body, hair, limbs or clothing becoming entangled in a faulty or flat drain or grate. The best defense against entrapments is to prevent them before they happen by installing federally compliant drain covers and inspecting your drain cover regularly. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act (P&SS Act) takes its name from Virginia Graeme Baker, a young girl who drowned after she was trapped under water by the powerful suction from a hot tub drain.
