• Cracks in the structure
• Leaks causing water loss
• Fading or peeling of surface finish

05 · Plumbing

• Leaks in the lines
• Clogs affecting water flow
• Corrosion of pipes

06 · Filter

The filter cleans the pool water by trapping debris and particles.

• Blockages reducing efficiency
• Worn-out parts needing replacement
• Leaks causing water loss

07 · Pump

The pump circulates water through the filter and back into the pool, maintaining water quality.

• Loss of prime causing inefficiency
• Motor failure due to wear
• Leaks or drips around seals

08 · Drain
