Acoustic ground microphone
Sensitive parabolic microphones detect high-frequency hiss through pinhole openings; calibrated separately per assembly.
Best on copperFLIR thermal infrared imaging
Surface temperature differentials caused by hot-water leaks visible through tile, wood, terrazzo.
Best on hot-waterHydrogen-nitrogen tracer gas
5%-H2 / 95%-N2 mixture, tunable diode laser detector confirms specific leaking run.
Confirms ambiguousBorescope camera + pressure decay
Flexible-shaft borescope visualizes inside wall chases; isolated pressure-decay testing quantifies leak severity.
