Leaks are surprisingly common, especially on older premises, but are not always visible above ground. Which means they can often run unchecked for long periods, and potentially waste water and money.
How we can help
Our leak detection survey uses the latest non-intrusive techniques for surveying underground pipework. It will typically combine manual and electronic detection methods to help identify problems.
Manual checks might involve:
- visual inspections
- valve checks
- step testing.
While some typical electronic methods include:
- correlators
- ground microphones
- data loggers.
Once we find the leak we can help with a full repair service, up to and including full mains renewal.
Glasgow Airport - BAA: By bringing water flow rates back down to their usual 400m3 per day, our team’s leak detection and subsequent repairs meant that BAA is making a daily saving of up to £720 per day. Had the leaks gone undetected the airport would have been losing money every day and could potentially have stood to lose £21,900 every month.
