THE PLUMBERS KIT
The Plumbers Kit Includes:
Meet the Plumbers Leak Detection Kit by LeakTronics. All the equipment you need to find leaks on any property.
- The LT1000 Amplifier – The Patented leak detection amplifier, designed by LeakTronics to power all LeakTronics electrical components.
- The Multi-Purpose Pipe Probe: For Listening under soil, aggregate and directly on pipes. The Pipe Probe is a rugged yet ergonomic tool designed to locate standard pressure or pressurized leaks in grass, rocks, or any type of porous material. The Pipe Probe is a great tool for line location and above head systems and checking valves for leaks.
- Listening Disc – The Listening Disc is the perfect tool for getting to hard to reach locations. It’s soft sided disc allows listening through cabinets, drywall and other finished products without scratching or damaging them. When combining the Listening Disc with the compression rig, pinpointing a leak is made simple.
- Deck Plate – The LeakTronics Deck Plate with advanced noise filtering technology makes listening through concrete, brick, rock or any other solid surface simple. With a rugged and slimline design, either combining the deck plate with our pressure rig or just listening under normal pressure, pinpointing a leak through solid surfaces is simple. When combined with our pressure rig, the DeckPlate can listen through up to 6 feet of concrete and compacted soil. The DeckPlate has a two year Limited Warranty.
- Headphones – Classic over the ear headphones with volume control are provided with each kit. Our headphones work in conjunction with the LT1000 to provide noise reduction to eliminate background noise as much as possible.
- Carrying Case – A rugged carrying case with soft sided interior provides superior protection for all of your components.
- Pressure Rig and Compression Plugs – The LeakTronics Pressure Rig is a tool used to pressure up a line using water, air or both. Our unit is quite unique because it allows the mixture of both water and air to mix in its chamber. By combining both water and air, the rig creates a distinctive boiling sound which can be heard by any of it’s components. The Pressure Rig comes with an assortment of compression plugs to make pressure testing simple. HVAC contractors like to use the pressure rig with air only which can be heard as a hissing sound at the source of the leak. The compression rig can be used on PVC, Copper, PEX, Galvanized, Poly, or any type of old concrete or clay pipe.

When pipes leak, water rushes out at the point of the leak and into the surrounding area. The pressure of the water trying to leak out of the pipe causes vibrations at the point of the leak which are carried throughout the pipe and are heard with the components included in the Plumbers Kit. Leaking pipes also cause vibrations through the ground to the earth’s surface where they manifest themselves as ground noise.
Determining whether the noise you hear is the actual leak or background noise is made easier with the technology inside the Pipe Probe, Listening Disc and DeckPlate. All three components provide outstanding transference of sound which is relayed through the LT1000 Amplifier with metering technology to the headphones of the user.
Metal Pipes are a great transmitter of vibrating sounds over long distances through the ground. Pipes constructed of other material, such as PVC, Pex, etc., do not transmit vibration sounds as easily as metal pipes. The Pipe Probe is ideal for pre-locating leaks in metal and non metal pipes. Whether made of metal or other material, a long pipeline should be checked at regular intervals to enable the leak to be located.  The visual meter on the LT1000 Amplifier aids the user to obtain an accurate comparison of the noise intensities. While checking the pipe at regular intervals and listening with one of the components, if the noise gets louder and the needle on the LT1000 raises, you’re moving closer to the leak.

Need to locate leaks and pipe separations in long underground lines from 1 to 60 inches in diameter? Are you working with swimming pools, plumbing, HVAC and gas lines, water mains, sewer or other related applications. The patented F.L.A.S.H. is the piece of equipment you need! With 100 feet of standard length, (we can customize that length for longer runs), the F.L.A.S.H. Leak Locater is the ultimate mic for finding leaks. You’ll pressurize the line to no more than 8 lbs. using the included Pressure Rig and pull the F.L.A.S.H. Mic Head through the line listening for that distinctive sound a leak makes. This is how you know you’ve identified the leak location, but our patented F.L.A.S.H. technology is going to help you find the mic head underground.
Using a 512 Hz. receiver, you’ll scan the ground for a sonic pulse, picked up by the receiver, and you’ll know exactly where the mic head is – and of course, where the break in the pipe is. When plumbing makes turns underground, the pipes may not run in a clear straight line. You’ll avoid unnecessary digging and potential costly damage and time wasted, just trying to find the leak you’re going to repair. With F.L.A.S.H. technology, you win every time.
The F.L.A.S.H., like all LeakTronics listening equipment, works with the LT1000 Amplifier that comes standard in all of our complete kits. The F.L.A.S.H. can be purchased as an add-on for the Pro Kit, the Pro Complete or any of the LeakTronics complete kits that include the LT1000.

It’s everything you need to locate any pipe, wherever it lays.
The Pulse Generator is a unique and versatile tool for Plumbers who would like to enhance their arsenal and gain the ability to find the exact location of plastic and PVC lines as well as standard metal pipes.
Because PVC and plastic pipes cannot carry an electrical current, it’s impossible that they can be located in a conventional way. The innovative Pulse Generator solves that problem! By radiating a gentle trans-sonde pulse through the line, the Pulse Generator transmits an audible, acoustic pulse throughout the pipe being located. When attached to a pressure line, the Pulse Generator sends a repeated pulse that can be easily heard using the LeakTronics LT1000 Amplifier that comes standard in all LeakTronics complete kits, including the Pulse Generator Complete Kit. It allows the user to precisely locate the pulsing sound at its loudest signal under soil, grass, landscape; even concrete and asphalt.
The Pulse Generator can also be purchased as an add-on to any complete kit that has an LT1000 Amplifier in it.
