AMERICAN LEAK DETECTION CELEBRATES 30 YEARS OF ELIMINATING ‘SEARCH AND DESTROY’ LEAK-FINDING

Company’s Technology has Prevented Billions of Dollars in Property Damage

PALM SPRINGS, CA (Wednesday, November 30, 2005) - Until 1974, the hunt for a hidden water, sewer or gas leak was frequently as damaging as the leak itself, leaving a trail of holes gouged in walls, floors, pavement and lawns as contractors blindly searched for problems buried beneath layers of drywall, concrete and grass. Then American Leak Detection went into business with a new breed of equipment that eliminated trial-and-error digging through a then-radical strategy: listening for leaks electronically.

In the 30 years since, American Leak Detection has used a continually expanding array of proprietary tools to prevent billions of dollars in residential and commercial property damage around the world. The company has grown from a single location to nearly 350 franchised outlets in 45 states and 11 foreign countries as well as spawning throngs of Mom and Pop imitators, literally creating a new industry.
