|---|---|---|
| Meter test with all use stopped | Whether water is being lost after the meter | Limits: does not locate the leak by itself |
| Pressure test and line isolation | Which line (hot/cold, floor by floor) loses pressure | Limits: needs working valves to isolate lines |
| Documented tank level test | Level drop in numbers against time | Limits: filling and use must stop for a while |
| Ground microphone and contact listening | The sound of water escaping under pressure in walls and floors | Limits: weaker with background noise and deep lines |
The steps in order
