Conductivity / Resistivity Testing in Burnaby, BC

Conductivity and resistivity testing measures the electrical conductivity of water samples to trace migration paths and identify water sources. Water from different sources (groundwater, municipal supply, rainwater, plumbing system water) has different dissolved mineral content and therefore different electrical conductivity characteristics. By measuring conductivity at multiple points, we can trace water migration paths through soil and structures. This method is particularly useful for identifying the entry point of groundwater in below-grade structures, tracing water migration through concrete slabs, and distinguishing between different water sources in complex leak scenarios. Conductivity testing is often used in conjunction with dye testing for comprehensive water path tracing.

Our technicians are experienced in applying Conductivity / Resistivity Testing in Burnaby and across the Metro Vancouver region. We have the equipment, training, and local knowledge to deploy this method effectively for your specific situation.
