WATER LOSS AND LEAK DETECTION RESOURCES

• Hidden Risks Beneath The Surface: Why Transmission Main Leak Monitoring Matters

  Water utilities can significantly reduce revenue loss by integrating acoustic leak detection, pipe condition assessments, and automated pressure management. This proactive approach identifies hidden infrastructure weaknesses, prevents catastrophic bursts, and optimizes operational efficiency for long-term sustainability.

• Smart Tech, Big Savings: How Sandy, Oregon, Transformed Water Management

  Small utilities can overcome limited staffing and aging infrastructure by integrating smart metering with acoustic leak detection. These data-driven tools pinpoint hidden water loss and optimize system pressure, ensuring reliable service and significant cost savings.

• Success Is The Break That Never Happened: How Embedded Acoustic Intelligence In Ultrasonic Meters Prevents Failure

  Embedded acoustic sensing in ultrasonic meters enables continuous leak monitoring, helping utilities detect problems earlier, reduce water loss, and shift from reactive repairs to proactive infrastructure management.

• Program Over Product: The Proven Path To Reducing Non‑Revenue Water

  Stop treating non-revenue water as a series of isolated leaks. By adopting a structured, audit-based program, utilities gain the system-wide visibility needed to prioritize repairs, recover lost revenue, and transition from reactive maintenance to proactive infrastructure management.

• Apavital S.A. Digitalizes Water Consumption With Itron's Smart Metering Devices

  Modernize water network management by combining precision ultrasonic metering with advanced acoustic leak detection. This integrated digital approach provides real-time data to identify vulnerabilities, minimize non-revenue water, and optimize distribution for long-term operational sustainability.

• How Omaha Reduced Water Loss And Costs With Smart Hydrant Monitoring

  Permanent acoustic sensors turn fire hydrants into a high-tech defense against water loss. By monitoring pipe sounds 24/7, utilities can identify and fix hidden leaks before they cause expensive, unplanned service disruptions or emergency flooding.

• Satellite-Based Infrastructure Intelligence For Advanced Leak Detection Technology

  Satellite-based radar technology allows water utilities to identify non-surfacing leaks that traditional methods often miss. By pinpointing underground moisture signatures, municipalities can significantly reduce non-revenue water and meet conservation goals through more efficient, data-driven field inspections.

• Leak Detection Program For Roswell, New Mexico

  Harnessing satellite intelligence allows utilities to pinpoint hidden underground leaks with precision. By focusing field crews on high-probability clusters, municipalities can drastically reduce water loss, optimize repair budgets, and prioritize critical infrastructure replacement projects.

• A Dynamic Trio Helps Tackle The Challenge Of Non-Revenue Water

  Non-revenue water is a global problem: Around 30% of drinking water is lost on its way to the consumer. But this decades-old problem can now be solved: By applying proven, easy-to-use digital solutions, utilities can now make the best use of data they already have from sensors and from hydraulic models to learn more about how much water they are losing and why.

• Study Reveals A Comprehensive Guide To IoT Integration For Non-Revenue Water Management

  A recent study argues that the traditional, manual approach to drinking-water distribution-network monitoring and leak prevention is no longer sustainable. Instead, utilities must embrace the Internet of Things (IoT) to transition from reactive repairs to proactive asset management.
