Measure the distance: Measure the distance from the drain opening to the wall or edge of the pool. Use this measurement to estimate the approximate location of the end.
Listen for running water: Turn on the pool pump and listen for running water. Move around the perimeter of the pool until you hear the sound of water flowing down a drain.
Feel for vibrations: Turn on the pool pump and place your hand near the pool wall or edge. Feel for vibrations caused by the water flowing through the drain.
