Pool Leaking at the Equipment Pad in Ramona, CA
When a Ramona pool has water leaking at the equipment pad, the fix is usually straightforward once the cause is found. Drips and puddles at the pad trace to worn seals, cracked unions, or a leaking filter band rather than the pool shell. Ramona runs on Ramona Municipal Water District at 12-16 gpg, which is hard water. Around here that means hard well water and heavy seasonal debris wearing down equipment on larger rural lots, and it shows up in problems exactly like this one.

What to check before you call
