Good luck getting anything from the sellers. Read the inspection notes and I'm sure it has an escape clause for just about everything in it, but it's good that he's at least working with you. Would be interested to hear what comes of this when it's all said and done.

I'm still not sold that its more than regular evaporation, have had my pool drop 4-5" in a week easily, and then the following week only drop about 1" with no rain either week. Wind, clouds and humidity make it vary like crazy. Best of luck.

Lol, it’s been just over a week since I quit adding water and it is well below the bottom of the skimmer. At the rate it is falling it will be below the return jets in the morning and probably be at the pool light in the next day or two. I have my fingers crossed it stops at the pool light and turns out to be an easy fix.

Thats a really high rate. The max mine will drop is 1/4" per day depending on the weather. I think 1/4" per day is pretty high, but I have a waterfall and bubblers that are increasing evaporation rates. You're right though, weather plays a huge role.

When I first bought the house I was paranoid about a leak because I didn't expect to lose 2" of water in a week. I did the bucket test a few times to confirm.
