Most leaks are discovered as you are moving the probe in the direction producing 

a whine then all of a sudden the signal stops. This indicates that the probe has 

passed over the leak and is now pointing away. Turn the probe around and care-

fully examine the area just passed. 

 

When pointing to a leak in close range the beeping will be so rapid that it will    

become a squeal. As soon as the probe is pointed away from the leak or passes 

over it the beeping will stop. 

Tips and Suggestions: 

 

 

Generally the signal will be most sharp at the highest possible power and click 

rate setting that gives rapid clicking when pointed toward the leak but no signal 

when pointed away. User preferences developed after gaining some experience 

will allow you to set Sensitivity and Click Rate to a level that works for you.  

 

To most effectively survey the side or bottom of a pool, point the LeakTrac Probe 

in the direction of the most intense clicking then move the Probe up and down 

(along a wall) or back and forth (on the bottom) perpendicular to the direction the 

probe is pointing, while slowly moving in the direction of the clicking.  

 

As you near the leak, shorten the perpendicular movements to stay within a 

range that produces the rapid clicking or whine.
