Yes. A cold-water leak never warms the floor, and a slow one hardly moves the meter. A pressure-gauge test is what catches the ones you cannot see.
How long can a slab leak go undetected?
Months, sometimes longer, when the water drains into the soil instead of coming up through the floor. A rising bill is often the only clue.
How do you find a cold water leak under a slab?
Cold leaks do not warm the floor, so thermal cameras miss them. They are found by isolating each line and listening acoustically along the run.
