At Southwest Leak Detection, we understand how critical fire safety systems are—especially in educational environments. Recently, our team was called to assist Harvey Agriculture School after a suspected leak was reported in their fire system. Thanks to our team’s fast response and advanced detection techniques, we were able to quickly identify and contain the issue, ensuring the school’s safety systems remained fully operational.
The leak was located between the isolation valve and the fire pit, a vulnerable section of the fire system where even small faults can have serious implications. Using specialised isolation methods and acoustic leak detection, our technicians were able to pinpoint the exact location of the fault, which was traced to the area near the hydrant and storage tanks.
Our priority was to act swiftly with minimal disruption to the school. Within a short timeframe, the leak was isolated and contained, preventing further pressure loss or potential failure in the wider fire suppression network. The school was able to continue its operations with confidence, knowing its safety infrastructure had been professionally secured and restored.
Fire systems in schools are not just a compliance requirement—they are a critical safeguard for students, staff, and property. Regular maintenance and proactive leak detection are essential to keeping these systems in peak condition. Small leaks, if left unnoticed, can escalate into significant hazards or render a fire system ineffective in an emergency.

Our highly trained technicians use non-invasive methods to detect, isolate, and repair leaks quickly, with minimal impact on daily operations.
