Leaky home water pipes are a common problem in many homes. After a long time of use, water pipes are prone to aging and wear and tear, resulting in water leakage. In the face of this situation, we do not need to be too nervous, we just need to find a professional repair master to accurately find the leakage point and replace the treatment.
However, choosing a reliable repair master is not easy. The market is flooded with various repair services, but the quality varies. Many repairers claim to be experienced, but in practice they have difficulty in accurately finding the leakage point, resulting in the problem not being solved at all.
Today, we will teach you several professional water leakage detection methods to help you better deal with water pipe leakage.
1, infrared thermal imaging detection method.
When there is a leak in the water pipe, the leakage site and the temperature of the surrounding environment will produce a difference, the use of infrared radiation can accurately find the leakage point. This method is only suitable for particularly large leaks
2, is the sound detection method.
Professional technicians will use the pipeline leakage detector, select a specific point along the pipeline to listen. By analyzing the ground sound intensity, audio and other information, you can pinpoint the leak. The key to this method is to choose the appropriate frequency band and the correct operation method to improve the positioning accuracy.
3, is the correlation meter detection method.
This method utilizes the principle of acoustic vibration, through the sensors placed on both sides of the pipe to receive the sound waves emitted from the leakage point, and measure the time difference to determine the location of the leakage point. This method requires some technical support and experience accumulation, but the positioning accuracy is high.
In addition to the above three methods, there are some other detection methods, but their limitations and higher requirements for equipment and technology, so they are not recommended for the time being.
To summarize, for home plumbing leakage problems, we can accurately locate the leakage point by the three professional methods of infrared thermal imaging detection method, sound detection method and correlation meter detection method.
