How Do Plumbers Find Outside Leaks?

Water leaks outside your home can be tricky to spot, but they’re not impossible to detect! At Hydrosonic Leak Detection in Perth, we specialise in pinpointing these hidden leaks to save you time, money, and water. Let’s dive into the fascinating methods us plumbers use to find outside leaks and why Hydrosonic is your trusted partner for leak detection in Perth.

1. Visual Inspection

One of the simplest and most effective methods for finding outside leaks is a thorough visual inspection. Plumbers will look for:

  • Soggy spots in your yard
  • Unusually lush green patches
  • Water pooling in unexpected areas
  • Cracks in your driveway or foundation

These signs can indicate a leak in your irrigation system or underground pipes.

2. Listening Devices

Plumbers often use specialized listening devices to detect leaks. These acoustic tools can pick up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even underground. By moving the device along the suspected area, plumbers can narrow down the leak’s location.

3. Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging cameras are another high-tech tool in a plumber’s arsenal. These cameras detect temperature variations in the ground caused by leaking water. This non-invasive method is beneficial for identifying leaks without digging up large areas.

4. Pressure Testing

Pressure testing involves introducing air or water into your plumbing system at high pressure and monitoring for drops. A drop in pressure can indicate a leak, which plumbers can then use to locate it precisely.
