    Looking back at my last post here I think I'm partially wrong. What I was suggesting was a leak in the MD pipe at some lower level, maybe near the bottom of the pool. My comment about the leak rate would be correct only if the MD was somehow capped so water could not flow into the MD pipe via the MD itself. Maybe that's what they did...cap the thing somehow. I have no experience with main drains....and don't want any. Dye and being able to isolate lines should point you in the right direction.

    The episode/ordeal continues with new development

    We just found the water dropped 2 inches today and heard a gulping sound from one of the skimmer boxes. Then we found the pump area is flooded with water. Now the water is leaking from the above-ground pipe!

    At least some of the above-ground equipment is covered with the home warranty (though with lots of fine print). So we'll call the home warranty company tomorrow.

    To be continued...
