Brand Highlight: Aquilar Leak Detection Solutions from DMS Metering Solutions
Water leaks can cause enormous damage to buildings, infrastructure, equipment, and operational downtime. That’s why leak detection has become a major priority across commercial buildings and residential developments, and critical infrastructure projects.
At DMS Metering Solutions, we proudly supply leak detection solutions from Aquilar, one of the UK’s leading specialists in leak detection technologies.
Who Are Aquilar?
Aquilar has built a strong reputation for providing advanced leak detection systems for commercial and industrial environments. Their technologies are used across sectors including:
Data centres
Commercial buildings
Hotels
Hospitals
Schools
Petrochemical sites
High-rise residential developments
The company specialises in water, refrigerant, oil, and chemical leak detection systems, with a strong focus on reliability, compliance, and early warning protection.
Aquilar’s EcoLeak & AquiTron range has become particularly well known within the building services industry for helping projects meet BREEAM leak detection requirements.
The AquiTron AT-WFM Leak Detection Unit
One of the most popular products available through DMS is the Aquitron AT-WFM leak detection system.
The AquiTron AT-WFM is designed to monitor water flow through pulse water meters and identify abnormal usage patterns that may indicate a major leak.
If water usage exceeds pre-set thresholds, the system can:
Trigger audible and visual alarms
Alert the Building Management System (BMS)
Automatically isolate the water supply
Help reduce leak damage and water waste
This makes it ideal for protecting buildings where undetected leaks could result in expensive damage or operational disruption.
Supporting BREEAM Compliance
The AquiTron AT-WFM systems are widely used on projects targeting BREEAM compliance.
The systems are specifically designed to help meet the requirements of:
BREEAM Wat 03 Water Leak Detection and Prevention
BREEAM Wat 02 Water Monitoring
Features supporting compliance include:
Programmable leak thresholds
Occupied and unoccupied monitoring modes
Automatic shut-off valve integration
Pulse outputs for BMS connectivity
Monitoring of both boundary and internal water systems
For consultants, contractors, and developers working on sustainable building projects, these features can play a valuable role in achieving environmental targets and reducing water-related risks.

Leak Detection Is Becoming Essential
As buildings become smarter and sustainability standards continue to evolve, leak detection is no longer seen as an optional extra.
Undetected leaks can lead to:
Property damage
Increased water costs
System downtime
Insurance claims
Health and safety risks
Modern leak detection systems like the AquiTron range help building operators detect issues early and minimise disruption before major damage occurs.
