swimming pool - water loss
We are under the impression that our swimming pool is losing water at an ever increasing rate.
The pool is indoors, and has a hard shell cover on at all times except when being used.
The water level is going down at a rate of 35mm in 20-25 days, or ~1.4mm daily. That is 1.8 cubic meters of water in 3 weeks! (or 1800 litres if you want). I am just not sure if this is an acceptable rate. We seem to think that initially, when we first filled it and started using it 18 months ago, it lost water at a much slower rate.
Any informed opinions? Thanks in advance, -P.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
