Rain water leaks are one of the most frustrating problems for RV dealers, service centers and owners. Historically, the problem has been not in repair of a known leak source, but in locating that source for repair.

Our RV Leak Detection System enables our technicians to accurately pinpoint the location of the leak.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The RV Leak Detection system makes ingenious use of a very simple fact: air flowing through an opening covered with a soapy water ("surfactant") solution produces a bubble precisely at the opening.  The system draws outside air into the RV via the roof vent, where it is dispersed, creating a positive interior pressure.  This pressure difference causes air to flow outward through any outer skin faults.  The application of a soapy water solution to suspicious areas of the outer skin results in a very visible bubble exactly over each fault.  

Each RV design has different characteristics so an impeller RPM controller is incoroporated to permit control of airflow and pressure.

Because of the large surface areas involved, and the numerous routes for air to escape a typical RV, the RV Leak Detection system is engineered and built to produce high air flow, but only to safe nominal pressures.

With our system, we can positively identify all leaks your RV might have. After necessary repairs have been made, we will retest to verify a positve repair.

If you think you have a leak, don't put this off. Serious damage can occur quickly. Don't let a minor problem develop into huge disaster. Have your RV checked now.
