Detecting water main leaks on your property can be challenging, given their subterranean location.
However, if you suspect such a leak, there are identifiable signs to help confirm your suspicions. The presence of one or more of these warning indicators increases the likelihood of a substantial leak.
Failing to address a leak promptly can lead to more extensive property damage and financial strain. Our team of Chatham water main leak detection experts are here to help.
If you’ve observed a sudden and significant spike in your water bill, disproportionate to your actual water consumption, there’s a strong possibility that you have a leaking underground water main.
There’s a prevalent misconception that when a water mains leak occurs, the duty to rectify it falls upon the water supply company.
Regrettably, any water leaks occurring within the boundarys of your property are your responsibility.
Another worrisome aspect of a water mains leak is the considerably higher water pressure and the substantial volume of water that can escape in a relatively brief timeframe, leading to notably greater costs compared to a typical domestic water leak.
However, since such leaks may be concealed deep underground, most individuals only become aware of the issue when they receive an exorbitant water bill.
Our water mains leak detection and repair service in Chatham is here to help!
ADI Leak Detection takes pride in being the pioneering specialist leak detection firm in the United Kingdom. We discerned the demand for specialized leak detection services well ahead of others in the industry. Since our establishment, both our company and our leak detection methodologies have undergone significant advancements.
Our foremost objective is the swift identification of the leak’s source, all while prioritizing the minimization of any unnecessary damage to your property or garden during the detection process. At ADI Leak Detection, we harness a diverse range of cutting-edge tools and enlist the expertise of some of the most seasoned engineers in the field to pinpoint your leak. Our comprehensive approach encompasses techniques such as:
Our exceptionally proficient engineers employ a specialized method involving the introduction of a specially formulated gas mixture of Hydrogen and Nitrogen into the water mains supply pipe.
This unique tracer gas is engineered to escape through the point of the pipe leak. Subsequently, our Gas Trace devices come into play, detecting the distinct odor of this gas mixture. This enables us to pinpoint the precise location of the leak with great precision. This method ensures efficient and accurate leak detection while preserving your property from unwarranted disruption or damage.
Given that most water main supply pipes are buried deep underground, an effective solution for this challenge involves the utilization of acoustic listening devices.
Sound possesses the capability to travel significant distances, and our acoustic listening devices are outfitted to detect the origin of a leak within a range of up to 2.5 meters. This cutting-edge technology enables us to precisely identify the leak's location, facilitating streamlined and non-invasive repair procedures.
Leak correlation detectors are advanced electronic devices meticulously crafted to detect leaks in pressurized pipes, particularly when the exact leak location is uncertain.
These detectors utilize two or more highly sensitive sensors, strategically placed on the pipe to encompass the suspected leak area. These sensors capture the acoustic signals generated by the escaping fluids. The acquired data is then relayed to a processing unit, which employs mathematical algorithms to determine the precise distance between each sensor and the origin of the sound.
ADI Leak Detection serve England, Scotland & Wales with a complete range of specialist leak detection services including water leak detection on water main supply pipes.
