    Elle,

    Sorry that I can't help you out. I had a leak in my pool but it is a vinyl liner. Poconos will be a great help in locating a leak. Hopefully, he will see this soon and point you in the right direction. Good luck!

    Since you know you are leaking I think the next step is to isolate whether it is in pipes or pool structure. Do you see any large cracks through plaster? I would also try the bucket test with the pump shut down and returns and drains plugged.
