During SAMCO‘s leak detection survey, performed by trained, licensed water conservation technicians are able to identify water loss issues throughout water distribution systems. Just like in the video, SAMCO’s leak detection survey was able to identify this leak coming from a 6” asbestos concrete pipe. As the excavation began, roots were exposed in the area of the pipeline, indicating that the leak was existing for some time. Also, not far from the leak location, there was a previous repair clamp just a few feet away! Leaks that are found, like this one, allow water utilities to plan and budget for line replacement projects to get a better understanding of their water distribution infrastructure that is forever aging.
