Water Efficiency. Leak Detection. Reducing Non-Revenue Water.
Who is this for?
- Water utilities/authorities
- Councils
- Large facilities
How it works:
Waterloss management is integral to good management of any water supply. This can be achieved with;
- Methodology and planning - waterloss management plan.
- Flow monitoring - bulk meter accuracy assessment. Customer meter reading. Meter replacement strategies. Flow measurement. Design and specification of permanent flow metering.
- Data capture - temporary data logging (flow, pressure, level). Specification of permanent remote data logging solutions. SCADA integration.
- Permanent network leak monitoring systems.
- Investigative leak detection services.
- Network optimisation - pressure analysis profiling and transient identification. Minimum night flow analysis. Water Balance Calculations (using IWA method). Hydraulic modelling.
- Network Investigation - sectorisation, DMA design and establishment. Pressure management, design and establishment.
Benefits:
- Reduction of non revenue water
- Increase level of network knowledge to make better decisions and manage the delivery of water
- Major water savings
- Sustainable solution
- Reduce inaccuracy in meter readings
- Reduce losses due to leaks
Support:
Our experience at both accessing and managing government funding puts us in a strong position to help you gain funding for any water loss management work you may be considering.
Our Latest Projects
Canberra Airport are flying through leakage issues
"WaterGroup were terrific to work with, they detected 2 water leaks for us, in a professional, collaborative and timely manner" - Airport Infrastructure Manger, Canberra Airport
Water Utility - Permanent leak monitoring
Our Sebalog N-3 Network permanent leakage monitoring system will mean less burst pipes and water disruptions for one Australia’s major cities.
Water Utility - Leak detection and investigation
During a leak detection demo for our client who had suspected a leak, we ended up discovering numerous leaks and a damaged pipe.
Large Resort - Investigating a rise in water consumption
After a series of flow tests, pipe tracing and acoustic monitoring, we discovered the resort was losing 120 litres of water per minute, $140,000/yr and had a pipeline that was leaking at a rate equivalent to approximately $300,000/yr.
Entertainment Venue - Investigate base flow
WaterGroup checked the base flow using a combination of ultrasonic flow measurement and acoustic correlation. Faulty valves were discovered in various states of failure. Potential of damage to infrastructure avoided.
