Air Leak Visualization, Inspection & Diagnosis Service
Visualize and quantify factory air leaks with acoustic cameras. We report leak volume, financial losses, and CO2 emissions in a comprehensive quantitative report.
Inspect & diagnose factory air leaks without stopping production
20-30% of compressed air used in Japanese factories is lost through leaks in piping and joints. This is equivalent to approximately 3% of Japan's total electricity consumption, resulting in enormous energy costs and CO2 emissions. However, most air leaks produce high-frequency sounds inaudible to the human ear and are invisible to the naked eye, so they have been overlooked for years.
AirMore's air leak inspection service precisely identifies even the finest leaks. Inspections can be performed while the factory is operating, with no need to stop production lines. After the inspection, we calculate the leak volume, annual financial losses, and CO2 emissions for each leak point, and deliver a detailed report with prioritized improvement recommendations. Our practical improvement proposals include repair methods, required materials, and labor estimates to ensure reliable cost reductions.

That leak — right now, too.
In 2025, air leak diagnosis brought the “invisible losses” to light.
20–30% of the compressed air used in Japanese factories is said to be lost to leaks. At the factories AirMore diagnosed in 2025, acoustic cameras identified 1,698 air leaks in total — revealing an estimated ¥24.9 million and about 652 t-CO₂ in annual losses. Air leaks are hard to see or hear, and keep leaking unnoticed.

Visualize leak volume & financial loss
A report tailored to your plant
We actually measure your plant and submit a detailed report matched to its real condition — leak location map, leak volume, annual financial loss (JPY), CO2 emissions and improvement priorities. A deliverable ready to use for internal approval and energy-saving plans.

Inspection Process
Six steps from survey form submission to improvement proposals.
01
Survey Form Submission
Fill out and submit the survey form before the diagnosis. Based on your submission, we can estimate the potential cost reductions.
Download survey form →
02
Diagnosis
Our staff visit your factory and measure high-frequency leak sounds — inaudible to the human ear — with acoustic cameras to accurately identify leak locations and flow rates. It can be performed while the factory is operating.
03
Tagging
We attach tags to the air leak points we find. Tag numbers correspond to the report numbers, making each location easy to identify during repairs.
04
Report Creation
We create and submit a report featuring a diagram with plotted tag numbers, comments for each leak point, and priority rankings.
05
Report Sample

Improvement & Repair Proposals
Based on the report, we propose appropriate repair methods for each leak point, with end-to-end support from repair work to post-improvement verification.

How is the cost of an air leak inspection determined?
The cost of an air leak inspection and survey is determined mainly by two factors. The more equipment and the larger the area to be surveyed, the more measurement points and working time are required. Based on your survey sheet (number of units, area), AirMore provides everything from the initial consultation to the quote free of charge.
Number of compressors
The number of compressors to be measured. The more units, the more inspection points.
Area of the target zone
The floor area of the plant or equipment to be surveyed. A larger area means a wider measurement range and longer working time.
Diagnosis plan guide
- Floor areaUnder 10,000 m²
- Compressors3 or fewer
- Floor areaUnder 30,000 m²
- CompressorsFewer than 10
* The above are guidelines by plan size; the exact cost varies with your plant's conditions. Please start with a free consultation and quote.
Why AirMore is chosen as an air leak inspection & diagnosis company
Looking for an air leak inspection and diagnosis provider for your plant? AirMore is an acoustic-camera specialist that handles the whole process in-house — from detecting leaks to quantifying leak volume and annual financial loss, then proposing improvements and repairs.
Inspect without stopping production
Because we measure with acoustic camera ALGOLEAK, we can inspect the whole plant in as little as half a day while it keeps running, with no impact on your production schedule.
Losses quantified in cost & CO2
Beyond leak locations, we report leak volume, annual financial loss and CO2 emissions — ready to use for internal approval and energy-saving plans.
Improvement priorities proposed
We show which leaks to fix first, in order of cost-effectiveness, so you can start taking action that same day.
From detection to repair, end to end
Not just inspection and diagnosis — we also propose repair solutions such as UV-curing repair material LEAKAID and silicone self-fusing tape LeakStopper, all in one stop.

It depends on the factory size. As a guideline, the 1-day plan covers factories under 30,000 m² with fewer than 10 compressors, and the half-day plan covers factories under 10,000 m² with 3 or fewer compressors.
Yes. Since we use acoustic cameras, the diagnosis can be performed while the factory is operating, with no impact on the production schedule. However, if you wish to detect very minute leaks, performing the diagnosis during factory shutdown is preferable.
We provide a quote based on the factory area and number of equipment. Considering the cost reduction effect, in many cases the investment can be recovered in a short period (1–2 years). Please feel free to start with a free consultation.
We cover all manufacturing industries that use compressed air, including automotive, food, semiconductor, chemical, paper, and more.
