In this episode of Turning Leak Detection Into Repair Work, we we're called to a house in Northridge, CA for a suspected residential home leak. The homeowner noticed a rise in water use on their bill a few months after having repair work done on their plumbing.

Using the equipment in the Plumbers Leak Detection Kit, we walked the entire property, taking note of the previous repair work, but listening for any other leaks that might be occurring on the property. While it seemed obvious that a leak would be in the previous repair work, it is important that we still check the entire property for leaks.

We heard the sound coming from a leak when we listened on the cold water side of the water heater in the garage. We further isolated the area of the leak by listening at all stub ups and valves, sinks, showers, toilets and plumbing lines in the house. this told us both where the leak was, and where the leak wasn't, so we could best diagnose the necessary repairs to stop the leaking.

We pressure tested the plumbing to create the boiling sound at the leak we need to hear. By creating this sound using pressure testing techniques, we are able to find precisely where the pipe is leaking. What we discovered was a break in the pipe under the garage floor where the previous repair work had produced a failure. We heard the distinctive boiling sound precisely at the leak and the job was done. We bid the repair work to fix the problem and got the job.
