Hydro Tec delivers a comprehensive suite of operational, technical, and consultancy services designed to improve water system performance, reduce losses, and support sustainable, low-carbon asset management. Our services combine practical field delivery with strategic advisory expertise, aligned to international best practice and evolving environmental and regulatory requirements.

Operational & Technical Services

We provide specialist, field-based services that enhance network efficiency, asset performance, and operational resilience:

• Leak Detection
  Advanced acoustic, digital, and correlating technologies to accurately identify visible and hidden leaks, reducing water losses, energy use, and associated carbon emissions.
• Pressure Reduction & Management
  Design and optimisation of pressure management solutions to reduce leakage, minimise bursts, extend asset life, and lower operational energy and carbon costs.
• Non-Revenue Water (NRW) Audits
  Comprehensive NRW audits to quantify real and apparent losses, identify root causes, and develop prioritised, cost-effective reduction programmes.
• Pressure and Flow Data Logging
  Deployment and analysis of temporary and permanent monitoring systems to support evidence-based operational and investment decisions.
• Asset Commissioning
  Structured commissioning of new and rehabilitated assets to ensure safe, compliant, and efficient operation from the outset.
• DMA Commissioning and Proving
  Establishment, validation, and optimisation of District Metered Areas to support effective leakage control, demand management, and performance monitoring.
• Valve Audit and Maintenance
  Systematic inspection, testing, and maintenance programmes to restore asset functionality and improve network control and resilience.
• Asset Survey and Inspection
  Detailed asset condition surveys to support risk-based maintenance planning and capital investment strategies.
• Meter Installation and Validation
  Accurate installation, testing, and validation of customer and bulk meters to improve revenue protection and consumption insight.
