Authoritative articles on commercial water loss, acoustic detection technology, municipal monitoring systems, and the real cost of undetected infrastructure leaks.
Unexplained utility bill increases, damp odours, staining, and structural discolouration are often the first indicators of concealed commercial water loss. Learn how to identify early warning signs before they become costly failures.
Read related serviceAcoustic leak detection uses the sound generated by pressurized water escaping a pipe to calculate the exact leak location. Sensors placed at two access points measure signal arrival time difference to produce a mathematically derived leak position.
Read related serviceDistrict Metered Areas (DMAs) equipped with acoustic loggers and Zonescan network systems allow water utilities to continuously monitor for new leaks. Understanding how these systems work helps municipalities make informed decisions about infrastructure investment.
Read related serviceUndetected water loss in commercial and municipal systems compounds over time. A 1-litre-per-minute leak running undetected for one year represents over 500,000 litres of water loss. The structural and financial implications extend far beyond the utility bill.
