Booking a regular air system audit with AEP will help you understand where you have operating inefficiencies.

At AEP we offer air leak detection and pressure integrity services.  Detection is of the upmost importance for 2 main reasons:

  1. To continue operating efficiently and reliably
  2. To ensure safety of personnel

When commissioning a company to conduct such tests it is important to employ one with the necessary accreditations.  At AEP we are committed to be at the forefront of our industry and therefore hold the following accreditations and affiliations:

- British Compressed Air Society member (BCAS) and trained to ISO11011 
   for Energy Auditing
- Verified by Achilles who administer the Utilities Vendor Database
We hold ISO9001:2015 quality accreditation and ISO14001:2015
   environmental accreditation

During the leakage test our engineer will walk around the full ring main including flexible pipes and all downstream pneumatic equipment to assess for damage or tampering; check joints; listen for audible leaks or unusual noises from fittings or valves plus monitor any movement in the pipework. A leak detector will also be used alongside monitoring the system’s pressure.


The purpose of the
integrity test is to ensure that the system is safe.  The system will be put under an agreed test pressure and joints and surfaces will be examined for leakage or plastic deformation etc.
