Abstract

Drinking water supply systems are essential to ensure that the water supply is adequate and in optimal conditions, the research carried out aimed to find areas where there are water leaks not visible in the internal and external distribution networks, through the use of a geophone, for the implementation of a heat map in isometrics and the application of corrective measures based on current regulations. The methodology used responds to a field study with the use of the AquaTest T10 geophone, collecting data on noise levels to capture them in a heat map that showed a visual representation based on a color code. It was reported that there was a considerable increase in the noise level in the women's restroom on the first floor and in the valve box on the fourth floor, in these locations it is presumed that there are possible water leaks. There is a correlation between the size of the leak and the difficulty to find it, that is, the smaller the leak, the more difficult it will be to locate and vice versa, in this sense, in the present work the largest number of measurements were made
