Quick Math
Your standard water system will have on average hundreds of non-surfacing service line leaks. Take a look at what one will cost you. On the other hand, you will see a comprehensive break down of what an average 60,000 person system will cost you. This includes main breaks and service line leaks.
Nerotec highly recommends annual leak survey of the systems that are affected by higher NRW. Our comprehensive leak survey has been proven to drastically reduce lost water in a year's time.
