What machine is best for detecting leaks in cement pools?
I know Leaktrac for vinyl, but what about cement ones?

Thank you,
Spyros

There is no machine for locating leaks in concrete pools. Some useful tools are:
Scuba diver
hydrophone
Dye test, Dye test, Dye test

WANTED: R.O.P.I.V.
Remotely Operated Pool Inspector Vehicle

Computer guided underwater vehicle, equiped with a self leveling zoom lens video camera, adjustable LED lights, computer guidance program to inspect and record the entire pool surface, attachments for a hydrophone and an arm with a dye applicator.

They have already built ROV's that have gone to 13,000 feet to record and examine artifacts on the Titanic, why can't it be done for pools.

Mermaid wanted, must be able to spend hours underwater surveying pools. Ability to apply dye test and hydrophone with no water disturbance, strong enough to change hydrostatic valves. Patient enough to apply putty and mastic neatly and not leave it looking like a flock of sea gulls have invaded the bottom of the pool. Looker preferred!!! :)
