Tracer Gas Leak Detection is the process of using inert tracer
gases (Hydrogen / Nitrogen) to detect water leaks. Tracer
gas
is also known as leak detection Gas.
Tracer gases can be used to detect many types of leaks
including central heating leaks and roof leaks.
The benefits of using tracer gases to in the process of finding
a leak includes the ability to pinpoint the location of a
leak
under the floor, concrete or inside a wall without
causing
any damage to the surface.
The procedure to identify the location of a water leak using
leak detection gas requires the engineer to fill the
pipework or
void with tracer gases. Tracer gases are
detected using a gas
sniffer when rising to the surface
from the location of the leak.
