Water Leak Detection Services

1. Acoustic Leak Detection:

This utilises sound to identify leaks by listening for changes in the noise made by flowing water. This method is effective for both pressurised and no-pressurised systems.

2. Infrared Leak Detection:

This method uses infrared technology to detect temperature changes associated with water leaks. It is particularly useful for identifying hidden leaks behind walls and under floors.

3. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). Infrared Leak Detection:

This technology sends radar pulses into the ground to detect anomalies, including water leaks. It’s useful for locating leaks in underground pipes.

4. Moisture Sensors :

Places in areas prone to leaks, these sensors detect changes in the moisture level and trigger an alarm.

5. Tracer Gas Leak Detection:

This involves injecting gas into the water pipe, and a sensor detects the gas escaping at the leak point. This method is effective for pinpointing leaks in certain situations.

6. Visual Inspection:

This is a simple yet crucial method involving a thorough visual examination of pipes, fittings, and surrounding areas for any visible signs of water leakage.

7. Meter Testing:

Analyzing water meter data to identify irregularities or fluctuations that could indicate a leak
