This course will outline the four tiers of water leak protection systems for commercial systems. Included will be the national trend drivers and motivations of under-construction, new construction design and retrofit design solutions. Real world examples of the various solutions of both “inside-the-pipe’ and “outside-the-pipe” leak detection strategies and the best percent effectiveness statistics will be shared.
