Our Leak Detection Techniques
Acoustic Leak Detection
Acoustic leak detection involves the use of highly sensitive audio equipment designed to detect the unique sounds of water escaping from pressurized pipes. This technique is especially useful for locating leaks that are hidden underground or within walls, where visual inspection is not possible. Our technicians use ground microphones and listening discs to amplify the noise created by leaking water, which enables them to accurately identify the leak’s location. This method is crucial for early detection of leaks, helping to prevent extensive damage and the associated high repair costs.
Pressure Testing
Pressure testing is a diagnostic technique used to assess the integrity of plumbing systems and pinpoint leak locations. This method involves introducing air or water under controlled pressure into the pipes and monitoring the pressure for any drops, which indicate the presence of a leak. Pressure testing is particularly valuable for checking sections of plumbing that are difficult to access or isolate, such as underground lines or pipes within slabs. This approach ensures that even the most elusive leaks are detected, helping maintain the overall health and efficiency of your plumbing system.
Infrared Thermography
Infrared thermography is a powerful, non-invasive diagnostic tool used in leak detection that utilizes infrared cameras to capture the temperature distribution on surfaces of walls and floors. This method is particularly effective for identifying variations in temperature that are often indicative of hidden leaks behind structural components. By detecting cooler spots caused by the presence of moisture, our technicians can pinpoint the exact location of a leak without the need for destructive probing, making it an ideal first step in diagnosing potential issues within your plumbing system.
Video Pipe Inspection
Video pipe inspection is a direct and effective method for examining the internal condition of pipes. This technique employs a high-resolution camera attached to a flexible rod that is inserted into the plumbing. As the camera travels through the pipes, it transmits live footage back to our technician, allowing for a real-time visual inspection. This method not only identifies the presence and location of leaks but also other issues such as blockages, corrosion, and wear. It is an indispensable tool for comprehensive maintenance, enabling precise repairs and helping homeowners avoid major plumbing emergencies.
