I have an old pool that loses about an inch per night. We had it caulked this year and that stopped the leakage for most of the summer but toward the end it started to lose water again. The pool has a concrete(Gunnite) bottom but fiberglass sides. It is 20' by 40' so an inch a night is alot of water. I am thinking of filling it in if I cannot find out what is wrong. I know that the plumbing is good but the skimmers do not work so we plugged them last year. That means I have to clean it weekly. Any suggestions? My pool guy says that we could start digging to find leaks in the filter line but it may not be the issue. I live in a suburb of Chicago so three months of pool time is not much for this pool. If I want to get rid of it, what are my options?
