Detecting leaks in swimming pools is a valuable skill every professional contractor should possess. Homeowners lose a significant amount of money in terms of water bills when their faulty pool leaks and they don’t know the cause. Also, virtually all real estate closing requires inspection. As such, a well-trained contractor is almost always in demand. LeakTronics offers two swimming pool training courses, depending on your preference. Two Swimming Pool Training Courses—Why?
LeakTronics is the leading manufacturer and distributor of water leak detection equipment. They can detect leaks inside the swimming pool, pipes, and plumbing wherever they occur, such as sub-surface and below slabs.
Our comprehensive courses teach you how to detect and handle leaks and use our equipment for the best results. Here is a brief description of each course, what it covers, and the similarities and differences.
Swimming Pool Inspection With Leak Detection Training Course
The Pool Inspection With Leak Detection Course aims to train inspectors with the knowledge, process, and equipment to inspect pools correctly. It includes rules that go above and beyond today’s standards to ensure you are adequately trained.
“Completing this training course will not only set you above any inspector in the field that hasn’t taken this course – it will guarantee that you’ve been given the tools necessary to be the single solution people need for getting their pool and pool equipment properly inspected”. ~ Darren Merlob, LeakTronics founder and 30-year pool industry veteran.
The online course allows you to learn on your schedule and from your preferred location. It consists of modules with paperwork downloads, instructional videos, and testing segments.
You will learn the following;
- How to perform a 300-point inspection on the entire pool
- Professional leak detection in pools, spas, fountains, and any other water feature
- How to use our equipment and kits
- Customer psychology
In addition, you’ll learn common inspection failures and how to avoid them. You’ll also get a certificate and start your journey as a professional pool inspector.
Swimming Pool Leak Detection Training Course
Unlike the previous course, which offers pool inspection training and leak detection, the Pool Leak Detection Training Course only trains on leak detection. That means you won’t be certified as a professional pool inspector.
However, you’ll receive world-class training on leak detection in swimming pools, spas, and other water features. This course offers valuable techniques beyond accurately locating leaks in and around the pool.
Like the inspection course, the leak detection course is offered online for convenience.
You will learn:

- How to deal with customers
- Submitting proper findings
- Best business practices
- How to get paid for your work
