How to Detect Slab Leak Easily


Among the riskiest things that might take place to any homeowners is slab leak escalation. Even worse than that, when the escalating slab leak has a crimp within the water line it can make things worsen. If a piping falls apart eventually, because the water pipings are ancient, then you need to prepare a good deal of money for replacing the pipes.
If you believe that there is a water leak below the concrete building foundation or slab, you should do an easy water measurement. The essential thing that you should do is find the meter and then be sure that the water is switched off for the entire building.
Put differently, be sure that you have no faucets dripping, toilets running, sprinklers watering the yards, wash machines working, and nobody is taking a bath or shower. If there is no leakage on your building, the water meter should not move in the least.
You should take a snapshot of your water meter with your digital camera for a proof or you should take note on the meter reading and write down the numbers, and also its exact time. Return and read the number again in half-hour. If the water meter reading hasn't moved, then do it again in two hours if the number hardly even move then that’s great. It means that there is no water leak.
If the numbers change then you could have a leak or two somewhere in the building. If the numbers move only slightly, you could call the water leak detection service, to have a better second opinion. All water leaks must be serviced immediately, because they may cause damages on structural foundation, wooden foundations and may even bring in mildew and mold.

  3. I have never heard of a slab leak before but it is probably smart to know a little bit about it in case I ever have to deal with it. I am thinking about getting a leak detection device so I know when there is a problem in the house. http://www.firstclassplumbinginc.com/leak-detection.htm
