Hi. I happened to buy one of those pressure gauges that hooks to hose bibs and decided to see if I had any leaking toilets, etc. I hooked it to the utility sink faucet and eventually determined that I must have a small (1 cup per hour) leak in a hot water line under the slab.
I isolated both cold and hot and the leak is only on the hot side. There are no visible leaks under any sinks, nor are any places wet. I've checked everything I can without tearing into walls or floors, including the hot water heater, dishwasher, washing machine, etc. So the leak must be under the slab. I've checked with an IR thermometer all over the floors and can't find any hot spots.
Can such a small leak be found by a local plumbing company?
Thanks
