LeakShot: The Pool Leak Sealer That Stops Leaks in 24 Hours
Is your pool losing water every day? A slow leak wastes water, drives up your bill, and can harm the ground around your pool. The good news is you may not need to drain a drop. LeakShot is a pool leak sealer that finds the leak and seals it fast. In many cases, it works in just 24 hours.
LeakShot is made by LeakTronics, a leak detection company based in Agoura Hills, California. Pool pros across the country trust their tools. Below, you will learn how LeakShot works, what it seals, and how local soil and weather can cause leaks in the first place.
What Is LeakShot?
LeakShot is a strong, polymer-based liquid. You pour it into your pool, spa, or fountain while the pump runs. It moves through the water and finds the leak on its own. Then it hardens and forms a seal that stops the water loss for good.
It comes in a 32 oz. bottle with a screw-on safety cap. One bottle can handle most small leaks. Many owners keep a second bottle on hand to stop new leaks before they grow.
Here is the best part. For leaks that lose up to an inch of water a day, you do not need to drain the pool. You just pour, wait, and let LeakShot do the work.
Think of LeakShot as a first responder for your pool. Pour it in, and it goes straight to the leak.
How LeakShot Seals a Pool Leak
The science is simple. LeakShot is heavier than water. As the pump moves water toward the leak, the fluid follows the same path. When it reaches a crack or hole, it packs in and hardens. That plug is permanent, not a quick patch.
Because it flows with the water, it can reach leaks you cannot see or touch. That includes cracks in the shell, gaps around fittings, and small holes in a vinyl liner.
This makes LeakShot a smart choice for hard-to-find leaks. It goes where a person with a patch kit often cannot reach. Best of all, you can seal a pool leak without draining the water for most small leaks.
What LeakShot Seals
LeakShot works on a wide range of pools and water features. It is built for non-potable water only, which means pools, spas, and fountains, not drinking water.
| Pool and Shell Types | Other Water Features |
|---|---|
| Cement (gunite) pools | Spas and hot tubs |
| Fiberglass pools | Ponds (no fish or live creatures) |
| Vinyl liner pools | Fountains and water features |
| Pool shells and wood spas | Barrels and more |
Why Pools Leak: Soil and Weather Across the USA
Most pool leaks are not random. The ground under your pool moves, and that movement cracks the shell and pipes. Your local soil and weather play a big role. Here is how it works around the country.
Clay soil is common in Texas, Oklahoma, and much of the South and parts of California. Clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry. That push and pull can crack a pool shell over time.
Sandy soil shows up in Florida and along many coasts. Sand can wash away or shift. When it does, part of your pool can settle and pull a fitting loose.
Freeze and thaw hits the Midwest, the Northeast, and other cold states. Water in the ground and pipes freezes and swells. That force can crack tile, plumbing, and the shell.
Weather matters too. In hot, dry states like Arizona and Nevada, water leaves the pool fast through the air. That makes a small leak hard to spot. Heavy storms raise the water table and push on pool walls. Long dry spells pull the soil away from the shell.
| Soil or Weather | Where It Is Common | Leak Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Clay soil | Texas, the South, parts of California | Shell cracks from swelling ground |
| Sandy soil | Florida and coastal areas | Settling and loose fittings |
| Freeze and thaw | Midwest and Northeast | Cracked pipes and tile |
| Heat and drought | Arizona, Nevada, Southwest | Hidden leaks from fast drying |
No matter your soil or climate, LeakShot gives you a fast way to stop the leak once it starts.
How to Use LeakShot Step by Step
LeakShot is easy to use. Shake the bottle well first. Then follow these steps:
- Bypass the filter. Set a sand filter to recirculate. For other filters, remove the cartridge or DE elements and run water through the empty tank.
- Pour it in. With the pump running, slowly add LeakShot through the skimmer.
- Send it to the leak. Switch the suction to the main drain so the fluid reaches the bottom.
- Keep it moving. Stir the water with a pool broom or a pool cleaner every 4 to 6 hours so the fluid stays mixed.
- Let it cure. Once the leak stops, wait 24 to 48 hours. Then return to normal filtering and rinse out any extra product.
That is it. No digging, no jackhammer, and no draining for most small leaks.
LeakShot Pricing and Pack Options
LeakShot comes in three simple packs. Buy one to fix a leak now, or buy more to keep a spare for later.
| Pack | Price | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 1-Pack | $68.20 | One current leak |
| 2-Pack | $104.50 | Fix now, keep a spare |
| 3-Pack | $138.60 | Best value and backup |
Want to spread out the cost? You can pay in 4 interest-free payments of $17.05 on the 1-Pack. It is a low-cost way to stop a leak that could waste hundreds of gallons.
Safety Tips Before You Pour
LeakShot is safe and simple when you use it the right way. Keep these points in mind:
- Keep it away from kids. Store the bottle up high and out of reach.
- Protect your eyes and skin. The fluid can irritate. If it touches your eyes or skin, rinse with water for at least 15 minutes. See a doctor for eye contact.
- No fish or live plants. Never add LeakShot to a pond with fish or other live creatures. Move them out first, then clean or replace the water before they return.
- Non-potable water only. Use it in pools, spas, and fountains, not in drinking water.
Stop the Next Leak Before It Starts
LeakShot is not just a fix. It is also a preventative maintenance product. Add it now and then to seal weak spots before they turn into full leaks. This is a simple step that can save you money down the road.
That is why many owners keep an extra bottle ready. A leak often shows up at the worst time, like the start of pool season or a hot holiday weekend. With LeakShot on the shelf, you are ready.
