Water Distribution Leak Survey

CEI maintains a team of highly-qualified, experienced, well-trained, well-equipped, and safety-oriented leak detection specialists which serve numerous parts of North America. Our leak detection service crews offer the expertise necessary to deliver water department objectives.

Technology

Our teams utilize state-of-the-art leak detection technology to identify, pinpoint, measure, and reduce water losses in metallic and non-metallic systems with varying pressure zones in rural, suburban, and high-density areas with varied distances between assets. CEI is equipped with analog and digital devices such as Vivax-Metrotech, Subsurface Leak Detection, Itron, Zcorr, CST/Berger, and others to combat water loss issues.

Our partnership with ESRI allows us to capture, measure, and deliver valuable data such as asset, mapping, field, and virtually any field condition allowing our partners a means to update their system and receive actionable reports to convert to work orders. This data is collected in real-time with survey-grade GPS-enabled devices so accountability and safety are built into the DNA of our process.
