What is Leak Detection?
Lack of water awareness can lead to unexpected leaks in our homes and businesses. Leak detection is the process of identifying and locating hidden water sources that are causing damage, wasting resources, or creating health risks.
Types of Leaks
- Leak in pipes (water supply and drainage)
- Faulty faucets or toilets
- Clogged drains or sewer lines
- Absorption or erosion by soil, rocks, or other materials
Signs and Symptoms of a Leak
Visible signs include water spots on walls, floors, or ceilings. Sounds like dripping, gurgling, or hissing can indicate internal leaks. Unusual odors or sweet scents may suggest moisture accumulation.
Prevention Tips for Leak Detection
Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify potential leaks before they cause damage. Keep your home well-maintained, including checking for loose or damaged connections.
