Step Test Sectoring in Tsawwassen

When the question is "which zone of the network is losing water," step testing is the right answer. By systematically closing valves and watching flow at a central meter, we isolate the zone containing active leakage, then progressively narrow to specific main segments before deploying acoustic methods on the suspect section. This is the workhorse method behind utility-scale leak reduction programs, and it scales from a small commercial property's loop to a municipal district metered area.

Sea-level Tsawwassen sits on the Roberts Bank peninsula, with ocean-exposed properties, large lots, and an ageing 60s/70s single-family stock alongside newer Tsawwassen First Nation development.
