    Waste of time. You didn't tell us how to diagnose/find the leak, you just told us you need fancy equipment.And you didn't even show how to use that. The only useful thing in this was showing how you can supply your house with water while you diagnose.

      Is that why he’s giving us the middle finger at 1:17 ?

    @richardhaley3347 5 месяцев назад +6

    Im a plumber with leak detection experience. Running temporary pex pipe to supply the house was overkill. You determine a leak by watching the meter after shutting off all the toilets in the house. If the meter moves when everything is off then you have a leak.Turn off all the hot water in the house, if the meter continues to move then the leak is on the cold water side. Shut off the main water supply valve at the house. If the movement at the meter continues then you have a leak between the meter and the house. If you have an irrigation system you can isolate that as well. Finding the leak is done by inducing nitrogen against the water flow at the point you know you are at the down line location of the leak. As the nitrogen is induced the technician is watching and listening for the nitrogen to hit where the pipe is leaking. Then, the technician is listening with a sonic amplifier to hear the leak. In cases where the pipe is deeper in the ground helium instead of nitrogen is used. When inducing helium then tech will listen for a squelling sound and will use another device called a helium sniffer to find the leak. With very large pipe on commercial buildings a device called a coorelator is used. This device works off a magnetic field and the signiture a leak makes in the pipe. Call qualified, trained people.😂

      Not if its a small leak that will never show up in your meter usage

  • @joevarga5982
    @joevarga5982 2 года назад +11

    The irrigation system SHOULD have been designed with a shut-off valve where it ties in to the main water supply. You shouldn't have to run a water line to the house, lol. WTF?

      Yeah. I didn't see a cable in the PVC line, either. how did they retrieve the camera? Plus, how would seeing help? Seems listening would be more conclusive.

  • @Louie359
    @Louie359 4 года назад +30

    Great selling job on Pex, but you really did not show anything at all about how you ACTUALLY located the leak. You mentioned, air tank, safe gas, and acoustics, but this would have been a good teaching video if you had demonstrated how those techniques are done. I still do not know how you actually found the leak at the edge of that "deck" that you mentioned. For that reason, I give you a thumbs down instead of up.

  • @davidg5629
    @davidg5629 2 года назад +1

    There's a T&P valve in the supply system? I wonder if the property has a pressurizing pump to get up to usable pressure. Maybe that's the reason for the T&P? Nice property.

    I got a leak... I could find Super Mario himself to come over to my house on a Sunday sooner than I can find a plumber that advertises "Emergency Service" to come over... seriously WTF is up with all the 24/7 service tags in the plumbing ads if it only means I can leave a voice mail with some outsourced dispatcher in India?

    • @TwinHomeExperts

    You should have been able to isolate the irrigation from the domestic water that goes into the house and then figure out the what the h*** do put a temporary service into the house and save yourself a lot of time and then you could eyes the light of the irrigation leaked that way

    Super poor communications and, really, 10 minutes of my life gone forever.
    After rambling on and on, telling us about how he diverted the house water while locating the leak, maybe with a micro -camera, but no, at 5:30 it seems he has a whole host of techniques and out of thin air, finds the leak at a 90 degree joint without saying how.
    Thanks for nothing.
