Leak detection in Skovlunde

The pipes are as old as the houses

Skovlunde is a classic residential town, and in many of the neighborhoods the water pipes are the same age as the houses around them. Collections and materials from that time are approaching the limit of their lifespan – and when one of them gives out, it usually happens somewhere no one can see: in the underground pipe under the lawn or in the pipe cast into the floor. 

DWI A / S performs leak detection in Forest Grove and finds the leak, regardless of which of the two hiding places it has chosen.

Try this before you call.

The suspicion can often be confirmed or denied in five minutes: Close all the taps in the house, turn off machines that use water, and then read the water meter. If it still counts, water is leaving the system somewhere – and then the suspicion is real.

Write down the meter reading when you call us. This will give you an idea of the extent of the loss even before we pack up the equipment.

Leak detection in Skovlunde – from the boundary to the bedroom

Responsibility for the water is typically divided by division: The supply is responsible for the network in the street, while the underground pipe over the plot and everything inside the house is the owner's. It is precisely on the owner's side that the expensive surprises are hidden - many houses from Skovlunde's expansion years have water pipes running in the ground cover, where a leak can work for a long time under underfloor heating and concrete floors.

Our operators locate the break from the outside with acoustics and tracer gas, so that only one place is opened – not floor by floor until something shows up.

Leak detection in Skovlunde for supply and waterworks

We systematically review the public network under the residential roads for supplies that will reduce water loss: Leak detection In planned stages, they uncover leaks that have not yet manifested themselves, and at the same time provide an updated picture of where the network is most in need.

Accurate leak detection in Skovlunde is cheaper than guessing

A leaking underground pipe can in principle be found by digging it free along its entire length – but this is the most expensive solution in the garden. With correlation measurement and tracer gas, we identify the position in advance, so that the digging work is limited to the one necessary hole. If the pipe's course is not fixed, wire search that part first.

For utilities, the same logic applies on a larger scale: NRW – water produced without being billed – falls fastest when each excavation hits the mark the first time.

Read about our guide to NRW reduction.

Keep an eye out without digging

Data loggers can monitor the wiring network around the clock and report via HThe ydrantAI platform, as soon as the noise level deviates from normal. For the supply, this means early warning – and for customers in Skovlunde, fewer unannounced breaks on the road.

Close all taps and read the water meter – if it is still counting, there is a loss in the system. An unexplained jump in the water bill points in the same direction.

Yes. We locate the leak from the outside using acoustics and tracer gas, so that only the break itself is opened.
