Infiltration & Inflow Studies in Burnaby

Infiltration (groundwater entering through pipe defects) and inflow (stormwater entering through cross-connections) cost utilities millions in unnecessary treatment. Our I/I studies combine flow monitoring, smoke testing, dyed water testing and targeted CCTV to identify and quantify entry points across a service area. We deliver these for municipalities and large institutional properties with combined or aging sanitary systems.
