💧Step 1: Turn off your pool’s water features and auto-fill system (if installed).
💧Step 2: Place the Mini Bucket Test on the first swim step of your pool and fill it up so the water level on the inside of the tester matches the water level of the pool.
💧Step 3: Come back in a day or two and check it out. That’s IT!!!
💧If the water level inside the tester is higher than the level of the pool water, your pool is leaking. However, if the water level on the inside and outside are matching still, it’s simply evaporation and you just saved yourself a few hundred bucks.

Here's how you can get the most accurate results out of your Mini Bucket Test pool leak detector:
Pool Equipment Configuration: Turn off Auto-Fill System, and any water features such as waterfalls. *We recommend starting the test with your pool pump running. Run the pump for 24 hours during the test. When you return to check the status of the water levels, make sure your pool pump is still running. This gives the most consistent results. There are many more pool equipment configurations you can use but the above configuration should give you the basic "IS my pool leaking?" info you need before making the call to your pool professional for help.
