What pipe finder for brick walls?

[nika]

Hi, 

Im doing a laundry renovation and have brick render walls. What would be the best tool to buy to find the pipes so we dont drill into them. 

Thanks

Hello @nika 

I've used the Ryobi Stud Finder With AC Detection RYSF5003 and it has successfully detected plumbing and electrical conduits behind my wall. However, if you wish to take next step up, I suggest looking at the Franklin ProSensor T13 Professional Stud Finder which has a deeper penetration scan of up to 43mm deep and detects both wood and metal. My best advice is to do multiple passes to make sure you're detecting metal pipe behind the wall.

Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How to use a stud finder

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
