SMOKE TESTING

SMOKE TESTING, SMELL DETECTION & HYDROSTATIC DETECTION

We use the Pea Soup Dragon to detect smells and leaks. The hose is placed into the manhole and non-toxic and odorless smoke is created by the machine. It is blown through the pipe and this in-turn escapes through any defects, i.e. through the multi-wick, defective pipes or manholes. This method enables us to solve problems quickly and effectively. See the picture of smoke machine that we use.

Hydrostatic Detection
Hydrostatic testing is used to locate leaks in pipework. Leaks can cause massive destruction to dwellings, footpaths, chimneys and driveways. Pressure testing is done with air and water by closing one end of the pipe and filling the pipe with air and/or water. By isolating each section, we are able to identify and locate the problem.
