South Africa is a water stressed country in the grip of climate change. And Cape Town is not immune.
The Western Cape’s water supply is limited and cannot keep pace with growth in the Metropolitan area and with its vibrant economy unless we do more to save water.
Vulnerable to inconsistent weather patterns, frequent droughts and deteriorating water infrastructure, Capetonians will be faced with escalating water prices in the coming years that reflect the growing water supply crisis.
Stepped water tariffs have been set to discourage excessive water consumption, and with escalating demand for drinking water and increases in the cost of processing and purifying water it has become too expensive to ignore water loss.
Water wastage is already a massive problem, and water leaks are costing you dearly. A leak can lead to massive increases in the homeowners water bill and can cause serious damage to the structure of the home.
It is for this reason that specialised water leak detection is an essential and viable service, a very important industry in its own right, to the residential consumer and business alike.
Leak detection has become a specialised professional service using sophisticated technologies such as electronically enhanced acoustic devices, tracer gas systems and thermal imaging cameras.
