That's why knowing how to detect and handle leaks effectively is crucial for every Denver home. At Brothers Plumbing, Heating, and Electric, we're committed to keeping your home safe and efficient, and leak detection is a big part of that mission.

The Importance of Leak Detection

Water leaks, if left undetected, can lead to substantial damage to home structures and increase utility bills. They can also contribute to mold growth, which poses health risks. Therefore, early detection is essential. Our expert technicians have lengthened the life of plumbing systems by quickly identifying and addressing these issues with precision and care.

Common Leak Detection Techniques

• Visual Inspection: This first step involves checking areas most susceptible to leaks such as under sinks, around toilets, and in basements. Look for visible signs like water stains or damp spots.
• Water Meter Check: A simple method to identify leaks is by monitoring the water meter. Note the reading, avoid using water for a couple of hours, and check it again to see if there's a change.
• Pressure Testing: Our technicians often use pressure tests to ensure that the plumbing systems are sealed and efficient. Sudden drops in pressure can indicate leaks.
• Advanced Leak Detection Technology: Utilizing state-of-the-art technology such as acoustic listening equipment and thermal imaging, our team precisely locates leaks even behind walls and underground.
