New user First Post Pool Info and a big problem.

[helnick]

Hello all,

I am new to this forum. I have a recently refinished plaster in ground Oasis shape pool. It is 25,000 gallons
We had the pool and all of the cement redone this year. The pool was refilled on July 4th and I am losing water.
I have performed all leak tests I am capable of and I am on here searching for answers.
When pump is running I lost roughly 3.5" overnight. The water is now below the skimmers. The pump has been off for 48hrs and and it has dropped another 3/4". We are in West Chester, PA so it has been near 100 degrees all week. I first suspected a skimmer leak but now that the water is below the skimmer lines and water has been sitting in the skimmer since I shut the pump off I now suspect it to be the returns. I hope its not both.

My question to this forum is, Has Anyone successfully used a non trench method to fixing pipes? I know there are a few options such as flood grout. Epoxy, Lining the entire pipe. Am I missing any?

Also it has not been easy locating anyone in my area that does these non digging methods.
So, any suggestions you guys may have on my issue or advice on resolving it would be great. I am devastated that I may have to dig up a brand new patio. So I am going to exhaust every option before I do that.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you all.
