Ultrasonic Compressed Air Detection in Port Moody
Ultrasonic Compressed Air Detection is one of our core acoustic leak-detection services available in Port Moody. High-frequency detection for compressed air, steam, and gas leaks in industrial environments. We deploy this for BC property owners and managers needing acoustic leak detection across Port Moody and the Metro Vancouver region.
Growing commercial and industrial sectors with waterfront redevelopment.
When you need this service in Port Moody
- Underground pipe leaks — Buried water mains and service lines can leak for months before surfacing. Acoustic finds them before they become sinkholes.
- High water bills — A hidden underground leak can add thousands to quarterly water bills. Acoustic detects the smallest pressurized leaks.
- Slab leaks — Water escaping from in-slab pipes creates a sound signature. Acoustic correlation finds it within inches.
- Fire-suppression leaks — Pressure loss in fire loops is often caused by buried leaks. Acoustic finds them without discharging the system.
- Municipal water loss — Distribution system losses waste millions of litres. Acoustic survey of mains is the most cost-effective detection method.
How it works in Port Moody
- 01
Access the pipe
We find two access points on the same pipe — can be at the meter, a cleanout, or an exposed section.
- 02
Place the sensors
Hydrophone or accelerometer sensors are attached to the pipe at each access point.
- 03
Correlate the signal
The correlator measures the time delay of the leak sound reaching each sensor and calculates the precise position.
- 04
Mark and report
The leak location is marked on the surface. You receive a report with findings, sensor data, and recommendations.
