How our thermal imaging process works?

No matter how hidden the leak is, nothing can escape our state-of-the-art thermal imaging cameras. Designed to generate a heat map of the object it is pointed at, this camera allows us to determine the exact location of the leak without warranting the necessity to tear down your walls. Since damp spots have a lower temperature than a dry area, the temperature difference will show in the camera. Any abnormal dark patches indicate colder areas, thus indicating the presence of moisture.

Thermal imaging: Why it’s the best?

  • It can unearth hidden patches of dampness that can wear down the interior of your walls, floors or ceilings that can aggravate into structural problems with time.

  • It’s a non-invasive process that inflicts zero damage, and can detect moisture even in seemingly dry areas.

  • Fast and accurate, it allows technicians to arrive at a solid conclusion without wasting precious time during which the damage done can only intensify.

Other leak detection techniques include:

Visual cues:

The obvious test relies on visual cues, wherein the leak is identified based on where water flow is prevalent. However, this method is rarely accurate and is used in conjunction with other techniques.

The sound test:

Using acoustic equipment, the sounds of running water get amplified, using which our experts can narrow down the location of the leak.

Camera inspections:

Fiber optic cameras or snake cams are inserted into the pipes and the ensuing image is viewed on a monitor to accurately determine the location of the leak.
