Task
Locate water line leaks at an apartment complex.
PROBLEM
- A 280,000 s.f. apartment complex was losing hundreds of thousands of gallons of water daily
- This amount of non-revenue water loss was costing them thousands of dollars every day
- They were considering hiring a plumber to fix the leak which would involve rerouting their entire system and other expensive projects that would cost tens of thousands of dollars
Solution
- GPRS Project Managers utilized an acoustic leak detector to identify the main source of the leaks
- The leaks ended up being caused by service leaks at the meter of some of the buildings
- The complex installed a different meter to remedy the situation
Benefits
- The apartment complex’s water infrastructure is running normally again with no excessive usage
- With the source of the leak determined and dealt with, the apartment complex now can save the money associated with the excessive water loss and no longer need to hire a plumber to perform expensive renovations
