Hicksville Water District Conducts Leak Detection Survey
T
he Hicksville Water District (HWD) recently conducted a comprehensive leak detection survey to report on potential leaks occurring within portions of its distribution system. Leaks in the distribution system, because the water mains are several feet below the surface, can easily go undetected. Through this effort, the district identified the locations of six leaks that will keep thousands of gallons of water from escaping the water mains. The district contracted New York Leak Detection, Inc. (NYLD) to conduct the survey, which involved inspecting fire hydrants, in-line main valves and service valves. The company was able to identify the source of six leaks, reporting back to the district with recommendations on how to remedy the issues.
