Industrial Facility Leak Detection in British Columbia
Industrial facilities run water and fluids through extensive process, cooling, fire-protection and utility systems — much of it buried, embedded in slabs, or routed through utility tunnels. A leak interrupts production, wastes resources, and can raise environmental and safety concerns, so locating it fast and precisely matters.
Leaks.ca is the educational leak detection hub and service-support division of Leak.ca, helping BC property owners understand leak risks and connect with professional detection services when needed.
Industrial leak detection locates leaks across a facility's water-bearing systems — process and cooling water, chilled and condenser loops, fire-suppression mains, compressed-air lines, and buried site utilities — using correlation, acoustic, tracer-gas, thermal and GPR methods. It addresses the scale and complexity of plants, warehouses and infrastructure where leaks are far from where they surface.
- Buried process- and cooling-water main leaks
- Fire-protection and compressed-air line failures
- Slab-embedded and utility-tunnel piping leaks
- Site-utility and yard-main leaks across large footprints
Why It Matters
Avoids production downtime and resource loss
Supports environmental and safety compliance
Locates leaks across large, complex industrial footprints
Industrial Facility Leak Detection — FAQ
Correlation and acoustic methods locate leaks on long buried and charged mains to within inches, tracer gas reaches inert and process lines, and GPR with utility locating maps the network. This addresses the scale and complexity of industrial sites where leaks are far from where they surface.
Yes. Non-invasive methods locate the leak precisely before any excavation or shutdown, and work is staged around operations — so any downtime is short and confined to the targeted repair rather than exploratory digging.
