By performing a preliminary water audit and reviewing your existing data, we will work with you to develop a plan that works for your schedule and budget — and will actually generate revenue for your utility, quickly.
Leak Detection
The fastest way to recover lost revenue from water loss is to begin an active and aggressive leak detection program. We offer comprehensive leak detection services that feature the latest in acoustic leak detection, flow-based leak detection, ultra-sonic flow metering, and acoustic correlation.

Customer Testimonial
One of the largest potential pitfalls of running a utility is allowing your water loss to get out of control. With unlimited resources, it would be easy to have a team devoted to leak detection on a daily basis, but for us, and I would speculate, for most utilities across the country, having partners like Rye Engineering to come in and assist us with leak surveys has been an invaluable asset. Over the years, Rye's team has found countless leaks both large and small and have aided our District in getting our water loss under control and manageable. No matter what size organization you may be, Rye Engineering can be an invaluable asset for you as well!

Meter Testing
Water Plant Meter Testing
We specialize in large water treatment plant meter testing that can be used for water auditing purposes such as annual or semi-annual programs that are available for State compliance. This includes non-intrusive methods such as clearwell drawdown and clamp-on ultrasonic meter testing.
Distribution System Meter Testing
We also offer Distribution System Meter Testing for in-place field testing of commercial, residential, and wholesale meters.
Zone Meter Installation
For many water systems, the most effective way to manage water loss is by breaking the systems into Zones or District Metered Areas (DMAs). DMAs allow operators to control sections of the systems independently. This makes it easy to detect a leak, alerting operators within minutes of a large spike in water flow or a drop in pressure, allowing them to make repairs and limit outages.
Specialized Equipment Sales
Our specialization in leak detection and water loss management services is what sets us apart from other companies. We have embraced the latest leak detection, monitoring and water testing technology. Over the last decade, we have developed strong relationships with several manufacturers of specialized equipment that we've used in projects and have become distributors for those innovative products.
In addition to traditional acoustical leak detection equipment such as ground microphones and correlators, we offer flow-based leak detection equipment such as multipoint insertion mag meters to locate the toughest leaks even on non-metallic mains such as PVC, HDPE and A/C. We also offer specialized equipment for microbiological water testing.
Water Loss Management
We offer a complete leak detection and water loss solution for your utility. For a predictable annual cost, we will manage all aspects of leak detection and water loss in your system. Our plans are customizable based on your needs and budget.
