Acoustic Leak Detection
Precise acoustic leak detection methods using sound amplification to locate leaks through walls and underground
Listening Technology That Pinpoints Leaks
Escaping water and gas create a distinct sound as they travel through pipes and surrounding materials. Our sensitive acoustic equipment amplifies these sounds, allowing us to triangulate the exact leak position through walls, floors and underground.
- Sound Amplification
Sensitive microphones amplify the faint sound of an escaping leak
- Ground Microphones
Specialised equipment listens for leaks through soil and pavement
- Electronic Listening Devices
Digital filtering isolates leak sounds from background noise

Acoustic Leak Detection FAQs
How does acoustic leak detection work?
Escaping water or gas creates vibration and sound as it moves through a pipe. Our acoustic equipment amplifies these sounds so technicians can triangulate the precise leak location.
Does acoustic detection work on all pipe materials?
Acoustic detection works well on metal and most rigid pipe materials. For some plastic pipes we combine acoustic methods with thermal imaging or tracer gas for best accuracy.
Can acoustic detection find leaks under concrete?
Yes, ground microphones and acoustic listening rods are specifically designed to detect leak sounds through concrete slabs and paving.
Is acoustic detection affected by background noise?
Our equipment uses digital filtering to isolate leak sounds from traffic, wind and other background noise, and inspections are often timed for quieter periods for best results.
