A smoke test is performed by injecting non-corrosive, non-toxic, and odorless smoke into the sewer system using a specialized blowing system. Potential defects in the network, such as cracks, disconnections, breaks, collapses, or any other faults, are clearly identified when the smoke escapes from the system and becomes visible at the surface.
Smoke testing is commonly used in sewer systems to locate leaks, sources of sewer odors, and entry points for insects and rodents in homes and buildings. A smoke test is often performed alongside a video inspection to provide a more in-depth diagnosis of the drainage system. Smoke testing has become a globally recognized detection method because it is a fast, effective, and cost-efficient technique.
At “Réseau Drain,” we perform smoke tests tailored to each environment and use the appropriate equipment and technology for different types of smoke testing. Today, technology allows us to conduct smoke tests that are detectable by infrared and Ultra TraceUV. A smoke test can be used to detect any leaks in areas that are meant to be sealed.
There are several types of equipment and liquids suited for different smoke testing applications. Unfortunately, many companies in the field do not have the proper tools or equipment required to achieve accurate results. In addition, the level of expertise and know-how in using this equipment plays a major role and has a significant impact on the quality of the results obtained.
When it comes to smoke testing, it is important to work with a company that specializes in this field and has all the appropriate equipment—not a plumber or a drain cleaner. A smoke test must be adapted to the specific needs and objectives of each situation.
What can a smoke test be used for? Detection and location of:
Sewer lines, sewer odors, rodent entry points, leaks, pipe damage, drain disconnections, improperly connected pipes, illegal connections, and more. For smoke testing in pipelines, it is strongly recommended to combine it with an HD camera inspection.
Verification of airtightness for: roofing systems, containers, vaults, truck boxes, HVAC systems, and chimneys—anything that must remain sealed and free of leaks.
Our work takes us across many sectors, including restaurants, hotels, convenience stores, commercial properties, schools, daycare centers, warehouses, factories, condos, office buildings, multi-unit properties, municipalities, farms, and more. Regardless of the request or objective, our work is guaranteed.
