Evaporation or a leak...?

Remember to try and keep teh bucket (container) on the first step of the pool or so, so both environments keep relatively the same temperature, or you may find skewed results like the bucket losing more water that it would have sitting on the step

why do you run your pump 24/7? you only need to run it long enough to give you one turnover in volume, 10 hours is probably more than enough...

cut the hours back and see if there's less water droppage.

Fair question, willhouse.

I have been thinking about cutting it back. It just seemed simpler to run it all the time as far as the heater and chlorine generator are concerned.

I've always been curious how it is that it came to be generally accepted that 1 turnover, once a day is the right amount to filter a pool.
