Plumbing Leak Detection
You may be wondering why your water bill is so high, when you haven’t been using more water than usual. There are other signs that you might have a plumbing leak, apart from a high water bill. Here are some indicators that there may be a broken pipe or drain:
– Paint flaking or bubbling.
– Damp or mold growth on ceilings, walls, or floors.
– Cracks in tiles, concrete, or brickwork.
– A moldy damp smell.
– The garden has wet areas that stay moist and never seem to dry.
Some water leaks can be difficult to detect. If the leak is severe enough, you might even be able to hear it. You might hear running water, even when everything is turned off. How is this possible? We can tell you how to trace the leak.
Water Leak Detection By Using Water Meter
Water leaks can often be detected in a few different ways. One way to check for a water leak is to look for any pooling of water around your home. Another way to check for leaks is to see if your water bill has increased suddenly. If you think you might have a water leak, it’s important to call a professional to help you fix the problem. The best way is to keep a brief record of your water meter. To do this, turn off the water supply and make sure no water is being used in your property. Your water meter will have a leak indicator that you can observe to see if there is a leak. Check your meter regularly to ensure that you don’t have any leaks. If you notice a moving dial, this means you might have a water leak.
Another way to check for a water leak is – take a meter reading and wait for an hour. Take the reading without using any water. After a wait, take another meter reading to check. Water leaks can be detected by any change you see. If you’re still unsure, there are the latest techniques which we use for leak detection.
