Leak detection methods for schools: The right equipment. A more precise answer.
Different leaks leave different clues. We combine listening, imaging and testing to understand what is happening before planning access.

HOW WE INVESTIGATE
Leak detection methods for school sites
Explore what each method can tell us and where it fits into a school survey.

Acoustic leak location
Listen for the sound of escaping water and narrow down its position.

Tracer gas
Trace gas escaping from an isolated pipe when a water leak is difficult to hear.
View details
Thermal imaging
Reveal temperature patterns that help trace heating pipes and investigate damp.
View details
Moisture mapping
Build a picture of where moisture is present and how it is spreading.

Pressure testing
Test isolated sections to establish which part of a system is losing pressure.
