Infrared Equipment
At JB Plumbing, we use high-tech infrared equipment, which allows us to see behind walls to spot hidden water leaks. Not all plumbers have access to this type of equipment. But the professionals at JB Plumbing find it invaluable for proactively detecting problems.
Finely tuned Infrared (IR) cameras enable users to see cold water and hot spots portrayed onscreen in different colors.
From first detection to eventual repair and, if necessary, remediation has many benefits:
Infrared cameras catch even pinhole leaks.
When your plumber identifies the location for this type of a water leak, he will be able to go directly to the source of the trouble, which will minimize repair work after the leak has been stopped.
Experience Where It’s Needed
Like most people, water follows the path of least resistance. So your plumber will use what he finds while using infrared technology to determine where a leak has started as well as where it will potentially move. This information is invaluable. It will inform the repair strategies.

The infrared camera doesn’t “see” water, per se, but recognizes the effects of water on temperature and the environment. IR cameras are perfect for diagnosing otherwise hidden water leaks because they can identify leak locations even if the leak is intermittent. - IR Cameras save money. Without the use of infrared technology, the only way to determine the source of a water leak would be to open up a wall or floor, or even a concrete slab. By using IR, your plumber will be able to pinpoint the leak, which means he will be able to restrict repair work to the area immediately surrounding the problem. This will result in far less time and money than traditional leak detection methods.
