Leak Detection in Peoria — Acoustic and Thermal Methods

North Peoria Vistancia homes have PEX supply lines in walls and slabs — PEX leaks are harder to detect acoustically than copper because PEX doesn't transmit sound as clearly. Thermal imaging is the preferred first step

Lake Pleasant area homes with elevated mineral water have higher pin-hole leak rates in copper — detection catches these before wall cavities fill with water

Undetected leaks in Peoria cost $50-200/month in excess water use and cause ongoing structural damage. Professional detection identifies the source before repair, avoiding exploratory wall damage.

We use three detection methods in Peoria:

Acoustic detection ($150–$400): Sensitive listening equipment detects water sound through walls, concrete, and floors — effective for active leaks in supply lines.

Thermal imaging ($200–$500): Infrared cameras identify temperature differences from moisture — finds slow leaks that haven't yet created sound.

Full detection ($300–$700): Combines acoustic and thermal with pressure isolation — the most thorough approach for unexplained water loss.
