A stain that reappears, a damp area or a change in water consumption may raise concerns about the installation. These are useful observations to share with a technician, but they do not identify the cause on their own.
FM Impianti offers water leak detection using thermal imaging. The first conversation helps us understand what you have noticed, where the property is located and which further checks may be appropriate.
An investigation guided by the findings
A thermal imaging camera shows temperature differences on surfaces. In suitable conditions, it can help identify areas that need further investigation, even when the problem is not immediately visible.
It cannot see through walls or floors, and a thermal image alone does not prove that there is a leak or pinpoint its exact location. The findings must be interpreted alongside the conditions at the property and any further checks required.
A clear plan before work begins
We gather information about the problem and assess how to approach the investigation. The method depends on the installation, the surfaces that can be accessed and the conditions we find.
Before proceeding, we clarify the work involved and any subsequent steps. Finding the cause and carrying out a repair are not automatically the same job: the work needed is determined by the findings.
What to tell us
Start with the location of the property, the rooms or areas affected and when you first noticed the problem. If available, you can also share photos of the situation and details of previous work.
You do not need to have identified the cause. A clear description helps us prepare for the conversation and agree the next step.

Frequently asked questions
Does a thermal imaging camera always locate the leak?
No. The usefulness of thermal imaging depends on the conditions. The image shows temperature differences that must be interpreted and, where necessary, investigated further.
Does leak detection always avoid opening walls or floors?
This cannot be guaranteed before an assessment. Thermal imaging provides useful information for the investigation; any openings or other work needed are determined case by case.
Can I contact you if I do not know where the water is coming from?
Yes. Tell us what you have noticed, when it started and where the property is located. We gather the information needed to assess your enquiry and agree the next steps.
