Will you need to turn the water off?

When it comes to heating leaks, it’s pretty unlikely that we’ll need to turn off the water. But for any other leak detection tasks, our engineer will likely have to shut off the water for a little while.

When our engineer is doing pressure tests, we’ll need to have the water turned off, and it’s important that nobody uses water during this time, including toilets and appliances.

Likewise, if we’re using trace gas to detect leaks, using water or not being able to shut off all the stopcocks can let that trace gas escape and mess up the test.

So, it’s super important that we can find and use the stopcocks, both inside your place and out on the street if they’re there.

And remember, this applies to all kinds of inspections, whether it’s for your home, a business, or even big buildings like schools. It’s important, especially when a leak can affect more than one place.
