Port Moody's Network

Port Moody is served by treated regional supply from Metro Vancouver's water system (the Capilano, Seymour and Coquitlam sources), distributed through the City of Port Moody's local water-main network. The network typically mixes ductile-iron, PVC and asbestos-cement mains of varying age, each of which transmits leak sound differently and benefits from matched detection methods.

Port Moody Locating FAQ

How is utility locating done in Port Moody?

In Port Moody, technicians combine electromagnetic (EM) line locating for metallic and tracer-wired services with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for non-metallic pipe and concrete scanning. Port Moody is served by treated regional supply from Metro Vancouver's water system (the Capilano, Seymour and Coquitlam sources), distributed through the City of Port Moody's local water-main network, and the locate is matched to the local network and ground conditions.

Does ground type in Port Moody affect GPR?

Yes. Rocky and till slopes above, with softer foreshore soils near the inlet and Noons Creek. GPR performs differently in clay, silt and granular ground, so the survey is adapted to Port Moody's conditions — and EM locating covers the metallic and tracer-wired lines regardless of soil.
