  • Abstract:
  • Plumbing line leakages are a pervasive issue worldwide, resulting in significant water losses and economic burdens. Traditional detection methods often rely on visual inspections, pressure testing, or invasive techniques, which can be time-consuming, costly, and inaccurate. This study presents an innovative approach to detecting and rectifying plumbing line leakages using thermal imaging-based instrument and epoxy based chemical application. Our methodology involves deploying cord attached with action camera inside the concealed plumbing lines to capture images of leakages. These images can be seen live on output monitor are then processed using relevant application to identify patterns and anomalies indicative of leakages. The system's accuracy and efficiency were validated through experiments on a simulated plumbing network, achieving a detection rate of 95% and a false positive rate of 2%. The proposed method offers a non-invasive, real-time, and cost-effective solution for detecting and locating leakages. The findings of this research have significant implications for the water industry, enabling proactive maintenance, reducing water losses, and promoting sustainable resource management.
