District Metered Area Leak Detection in New Westminster, BC
Serving New Westminster and the Metro Vancouver region
Zone-based water loss analysis and leak detection using district metered areas for BC municipalities and water utilities.
District Metered Area (DMA) leak detection divides a water distribution network into discrete zones, each with permanently installed flow meters at the inlet. By measuring the minimum night flow (MNF) into each zone between 2:00 AM and 4:00 AM when legitimate consumption is at its lowest, we calculate the background leakage and identify zones that warrant detailed acoustic investigation. DMA analysis is the gold standard for municipal water loss management because it quantifies leakage by zone, allowing targeted deployment of acoustic survey resources to the highest-loss areas first. This data-driven approach maximizes the cost-effectiveness of leak detection programs.
Benefits
- Quantifies leakage by zone for targeted resource allocation
- Measures program effectiveness by tracking MNF reduction over time
- 15-30% reduction in non-revenue water within 12 months
- Provides data for infrastructure renewal prioritization
- ROI typically achieved within 6-12 months through water savings alone
