This detects minute temperature differences caused by escaping hot or cold water.Pinpointing the Source: The camera highlights the exact location of the leak as a visible heat map, allowing us to trace it back to the precise faulty joint or pipe.Targeted Repairs: Once located, we only expose the specific area needed to fix the pipework, drastically reducing disruption to your home.By mapping out your central heating and hot water systems visually, we provide an accurate, fast, and stress-free diagnosis.
