Pressure Testing Leak Detection in Burnaby, BC
Burnaby's mix of older single-family neighbourhoods and rapidly growing multi-family complexes presents diverse leak detection challenges. The city's hillside properties on Burnaby Mountain require special attention to drainage and retaining wall moisture issues. Burnaby's mix of post-war single-family homes, 1970s low-rise apartments, and new high-rise developments creates varied leak detection challenges across the city. Areas near Burnaby Mountain and the Deer Lake watershed have high water tables that contribute to foundation drainage issues. Strata properties are particularly prevalent in Burnaby, with many complexes built during the 1980s and 1990s now requiring building envelope assessments and leak investigations for depreciation reports.

Pressure testing involves isolating a section of pipe or system and applying controlled air or water pressure to measure its ability to hold pressure over time. A pressure drop indicates the presence of a leak, and the rate of pressure loss helps estimate the leak's severity. For water systems, we use hydrostatic testing where the system is filled with water and pressurised. For systems that must remain dry, we perform pneumatic (air) pressure testing. Pressure testing is often the first step in confirming whether a leak exists before deploying location-specific detection technologies.
