  • Highly Accurate: Tracer gas technology can detect even the smallest leaks, ensuring precise results every time.
  • Quick and Efficient: Leak detection is completed faster than traditional methods, minimising downtime and inconvenience.
  • Cost-Effective: Avoid costly repairs by pinpointing the exact location of leaks before any invasive work is required.
  • Widely Applicable: Suitable for a variety of systems, including water mains, gas lines, heating systems, and more.

How Tracer Gas Leak Detection Works

Tracer gas leak detection is a highly reliable and precise technique for identifying hard-to-find leaks.
Here’s a step-by-step overview of how the process works:

  • Gas Injection: A small amount of tracer gas, typically hydrogen or helium, is carefully injected into the suspected system or pipe.
  • Gas Monitoring: Specialised detection equipment is used to monitor the system, identifying where the tracer gas escapes.
  • Accurate Location: The equipment tracks the escaping gas, enabling us to pinpoint the exact source of the leak with precision.
  • Repair and Resolution: After locating the leak, we provide expert recommendations and solutions for repairs, ensuring minimal disruption to your property.
 

This advanced method is especially effective for detecting leaks in difficult-to-reach areas such as underfloor heating systems, behind walls, or in underground pipes. With tracer gas technology, leaks are located quickly and accurately, saving you time and money.
