Leak detection is a critical process in ensuring the integrity and security of your home or business's plumbing systems. Without it, water damage can lead to costly repairs, mold growth, and even health risks.
Benefits of Regular Leak Detection
- Prevents water damage and costly repairs
- Limits mold growth and associated health risks
- Determines if leaks are due to worn-out or faulty components
Types of Leak Detection Methods
There are several methods used for leak detection, including:
- Visual inspections using telescopes or binoculars
- Audible sounds (e.g., running water) when listening with a microphone
- Non-invasive pressure sensors to detect changes in air pressure
- Digital leak detection systems that use UV light and sensors
