The Challenge
Central Heating Leak Investigation
A central heating leak investigation was required at a Farnham property. The supplied evidence shows a heating manifold and adjacent pipework area requiring specialist checks before targeted repair work could be planned.
- ✓ A central heating leak needed specialist investigation
- ✓ The heating manifold and nearby pipework were checked
- ✓ Moisture evidence was visible around the service area
- ✓ Non-destructive testing methods were used before access decisions
Investigation
Investigation Evidence
Selected photos and videos from the investigation sequence showing the evidence-led approach used on site.
Investigation
Testing Around Heating Manifold And Pipework
The investigation used thermal imaging, tracer gas and moisture meter checks around the heating manifold, pipework connections and surrounding floor area. Testing evidence was recorded before the affected components were assessed more closely.
Thermal Imaging
Infrared camera checks helped identify temperature differences linked to the leak investigation.
MethodTracer Gas
Tracer gas testing helped confirm or narrow concealed leak locations.
MethodMoisture Meter
Moisture readings helped assess water movement and affected areas around the suspected leak.
Findings
Heating Leak Evidence Located
The investigation evidence focused on the heating manifold and nearby fittings. Moisture readings, tracer gas testing and visual checks helped narrow the suspected leak area so targeted remedial work could be planned.
- Tracer gas testing equipment was connected during the investigation
- Moisture readings were taken around the affected heating area
- The manifold and adjacent fittings were documented
- The suspected central heating leak area was narrowed for targeted repair
Outcome
Leak Area Identified For Targeted Repair
- ✓ Leak Located
- ✓ Non-Destructive Investigation
- ✓ Minimal Disruption
- ✓ Repair Completed
The investigation identified the affected heating system area, helping avoid unnecessary wider disruption and allowing the next repair stage to be focused around the confirmed evidence.
