Industrial Subsurface Leak Detection

Specialized underground leak detection for manufacturing facilities, industrial plants, and process water systems. Minimize production disruption with accurate, non-invasive leak location technology.

Industrial water main inspection and leak detection

Industrial Underground Leak Detection Services

Industrial facilities depend on reliable underground water systems for manufacturing processes, cooling systems, fire suppression, and facility operations. Undetected subsurface leaks compromise production efficiency, waste expensive process water, and create safety hazards. UndergroundWaterLeak.ca provides industrial-grade leak detection services that locate underground leaks without production shutdowns or extensive excavation.

Our advanced acoustic correlation, pressure testing, and tracer gas technology delivers pinpoint accuracy in complex industrial environments where multiple underground utilities, heavy equipment traffic, and production operations create challenging detection conditions.

Industrial Systems We Service

Process Water Systems

Underground pipes supplying manufacturing processes, cooling systems, and production equipment. Leaks in these systems reduce production efficiency and increase operational costs.

Fire Suppression & Sprinkler Systems

Underground fire suppression mains and sprinkler system feeds. System integrity is critical for safety compliance and insurance requirements.

Cooling Water Distribution

Underground cooling water lines serving HVAC systems, process cooling, and equipment temperature control. Leaks reduce cooling capacity and increase utility costs.

Utility Distribution Networks

Complex underground networks distributing water across large industrial campuses, between buildings, and to remote process areas.

Sanitary & Process Wastewater Lines

Underground discharge lines where infiltration or exfiltration impacts treatment systems and environmental compliance.

Signs of Industrial Underground Leaks

  • Unexpected water consumption increases revealed in utility billing analysis
  • Wet areas or pooling in industrial yards, loading areas, or between buildings
  • Pressure loss in process water systems affecting production equipment
  • Pavement settlement or cracking in truck routes and equipment areas
  • Vegetation changes in industrial landscaping or perimeter areas
  • Soil erosion around foundations or underground utility corridors
  • Fire system pressure anomalies during testing or monitoring

Our Industrial Leak Detection Approach

Industrial facilities present unique challenges: 24/7 operations, heavy equipment traffic, multiple underground utilities, and production constraints. Our detection methodology addresses these challenges:

  1. 1. Pre-Survey Planning: Review facility drawings, utility maps, and production schedules to minimize operational impact
  2. 2. Zone Isolation: Systematically isolate system sections using existing valves to narrow leak location
  3. 3. Acoustic Correlation: Deploy multiple sensors across suspected areas for mathematical leak location
  4. 4. Pressure Testing: Conduct pressure monitoring on isolated sections to confirm leak presence and severity
  5. 5. Ground Penetrating Radar: Map underground utilities to ensure safe excavation planning
  6. 6. Tracer Gas Detection: Use non-toxic gas injection for difficult-to-locate leaks in complex pipe networks
  7. 7. GPS Documentation: Provide precise coordinates and detailed reports for maintenance teams
