Pool leak detection doesn’t have to be complicated or disruptive. With the right technology, pinpointing and solving your pool leak problems becomes fast, non-invasive, and highly accurate. The pairing of LeakTronics’ CamVac with the 1.5″ HHVP Camera/Locator Combo is changing the way pool owners and professionals approach leak detection and repair. This article explains how these innovative tools combine for seamless pool leak detection, making the process simpler, more efficient, and more successful whether you manage a swimming pool, spa, or need to fix a tricky underground pool leak.
Read on to learn how the right equipment ensures a trouble free pool, protects your investment, and helps pool repair professionals deliver superior results every time.
Why Is Efficient Pool Leak Detection Essential?
Leaks in your pool can cause many problems—from costly water loss to damage around the pool and in underground pool plumbing. Early leak detection is crucial to prevent small issues from turning into major repairs.
Efficient leak detection:
- Reduces unnecessary digging and downtime
- Lowers water bills and refill costs
- Preserves the condition of your swimming pool, spa, and pool equipment
- Supports a simple pool care routine
A precise approach allows you to fix a pool leak before it becomes a leaky pool nightmare.
What Makes Finding a Pool Leak Challenging?
Swimming pool leak detection isn’t always straightforward. Leaks can occur anywhere—in the pool liner, main drain, return lines, tile line, or underground pipes. Signs like unexplained water loss, a constantly running pump, or damp pavers may indicate a leak somewhere, but the source isn’t always visible.
Traditional methods like the bucket test or dye test can help, but without the right equipment, pinpointing leaks—especially underwater pool leaks or pool plumbing issues—can be tricky and time-consuming.
How Does the CamVac Revolutionize Underwater Pool Leak Detection?
The CamVac is designed to make leak detection in any pool, spa, or ground pool easier. By creating a controlled vacuum, it allows for clear, detailed inspection—even when visibility in the swimming pool is poor.
With the CamVac, professionals can:
- Inspect main drains and skimmer areas without the need to drain the pool
- Isolate potential leak points to see where water is escaping
- Prepare the area for camera inspections, even in deep pools or spas
This means less downtime and a more efficient leak detection process.
What Is the 1.5″ HHVP Camera/Locator Combo?
The 1.5″ High-Head Visible Path (HHVP) Camera/Locator Combo is a state-of-the-art tool built for inspecting tight spaces in pool and spa plumbing. Its small size allows it to access pipes, around the pool structure, and even vinyl pool liners.
Key features include:
- High-definition camera for clear visual feedback
- Durable, flexible design for navigating underground plumbing and corners
- Integrated locator for finding the exact location of the leak from the surface
This tool is essential for anyone needing to find a leak in complex or subterranean pool plumbing.
How Do These Tools Work Together for Pool Leak Repair?
Pairing the CamVac with the 1.5″ HHVP Camera/Locator Combo maximizes efficiency:
- The CamVac clears debris and improves visibility in main drain lines and around the pool, making it easier for the camera to spot the source of the leak.
- The camera inspects pool plumbing, return lines, and other hard-to-reach areas, quickly identifying liner damage, cracks, or faulty joints.
- The integrated locator ensures the repair service targets the exact location, reducing the need for invasive digging or unnecessary pool repair.
Together, they streamline the entire leak detection process, leading to faster leak repair and minimized disruption to your beautiful pool.
What Types of Leaks Can This Combo Detect?
This equipment excels at identifying leaks in underground pool plumbing, like main drain lines or return lines. No matter where the pool is leaking, this combined approach can pinpoint the leak—protecting the quality swimming pool experience every pool owner deserves.

How Can Professionals Pinpoint the Exact Location of a Leak?
The 1.5″ HHVP Camera’s visual accuracy, paired with its locator, gives repair service professionals a clear view and surface reference of the leak. Combined with data from the CamVac, technicians can:
- See the exact path of water loss inside the pipe or around connections
- Mark the spot on the surface for precise leak repair
- Limit excavation only to necessary areas, preserving landscaping and structural elements
This level of accuracy supports both fast pool leak repair and long-term leak prevention.
