Plumbing & Sewer Smoke Testing

While smoke serves as a helpful visual indicator for leaks, it doesn't reveal those that are hidden from view. By incorporating tracer gas into our inspections, we enhance our ability to conduct thorough assessments, allowing our technicians to detect even the most elusive leaks.

At Subsurface Leak Detection, we are committed to helping you maintain a healthy, odor-free home. We understand the inconvenience and discomfort that sewer odors can cause, which is why we provide specialized residential sewer smoke testing services. In this guide, we’ll explain what this testing involves, how it works, and why it's crucial for homeowners in the Colorado Springs and Denver metro areas.

What is Residential Sewer Smoke Testing?

Residential sewer smoke testing is a precise, non-invasive technique used to identify sewer odors within your home’s drain lines. This process involves introducing non-toxic smoke into your sewer system to accurately locate any sewer gas leaks, helping us determine how sewer odors enter your living space.

How Residential Sewer Smoke Testing Works:

• Smoke Introduction: The test begins with the introduction of non-toxic smoke into your sewer lines, specifically targeting the interior drain lines of your home.

• Observation: Our trained technicians closely monitor the smoke as it moves through your sewer system, looking for any signs of infiltration into your home.

• Leak Identification: If smoke is detected inside your home, it indicates a potential sewer gas leak. We carefully pinpoint these locations during the testing process.

• Detailed Reporting: After the test is complete, we provide a comprehensive report outlining the locations of any identified sewer gas leaks in your drain lines.

Average Cost for Residential Sewer Smoke Testing

It is best to have a qualified professional inspect your home and perform proper testing to confirm the source of the smell and ensure that your home is safe. Smoke testing in residential homes is a process used to detect air and water leaks. It's performed by blowing a harmless, non-toxic smoke through the pipes and checking for any smoke escaping from the pipes, drains, and fixtures. If smoke is detected, it could indicate a potential leak and should be investigated further.
