It helps differentiate normal water system flow sounds from any irregular noises that can be caused by a water leak somewhere in the system. It uses sound waves to put a microscopic flex on the pipe walls to measure their strength and detect any weak spots.
Heat scanning devices use infrared imaging technology to show thermal energy and help detect hard-to-find leaks. Thermographic scanners can be valuable tools to help pick up any temperature changes when you’re looking for water leaks. Fiber optic cables with cameras attached to them can also be fed through the pipes to provide video feed from inside the plumbing.
