leaks below wood decks
camango - 25-4-06 at 09:02 AM

what's everyone doing about finding plumbing leaks under wood decks? I hope there's an easier way than pulling up the planks...
and perhaps there's a way to do it with the XLT30?
trying to avoid plunking down a fortune on the helium setup (sorry, lance)

If you have a space between the deck boards you can insert the extension rods that came with the XLT unit. I have successfully located leaking pipes along pool walls by listening at the coping or aluminum extrusion. They both conduct sound very well.
