To serve you better, we are thrilled to announce we have officially upgraded our support process and Knowledge Base, unifying both under one platform to provide an enhanced support system.
Previously, our ticketing system and Knowledge Base were separate entities, but with this new overhaul, you’re now able create a user account allowing you to view your submitted tickets, check their status in real-time, and see a history of your requests, all while seamlessly being able to search through our articles, announcements, and FAQs. You may also submit a request without an account, if needed.
With this change comes a refreshed look, improved structure, and more intuitive layout designed to help you find answers faster. Knowledge Base articles are now better organized and optimized for both desktop and mobile, simplifying your access to the information you need.

We are excited to announce a major milestone in our mission to modernize leak detection: Chateau Mobile is now officially available on iOS.
For years, the industry has relied on ruggedized handhelds to manage complex LDAR workflows. While these tools remain the backbone of many programs, we recognize that flexibility and accessibility are paramount in today’s fast-paced environmental compliance landscape.
By bringing the power of Chateau to the iPhone and iPad, we’re putting world-class LDAR management into the hands of more technicians than ever before.
The updated Chateau Mobile application is now available. The redesign features a modernized interface, improved performance, and simplified field inspection workflows.
Redesign Highlights
Key features of the redesign include:
-
Improved filtering tools for managing components within a tour.
-
A simplified, faster, and more intuitive Post-Inspection workflow.
-
Add via Photo: Technicians can now take a photo of multiple components and quickly create and tag new components directly from the image.
-
Faster device registration with QR code scanning.
-
Increased performance across all devices.
-
iOS Support: Chateau Mobile is now available for iOS devices. Please note that Bluetooth analyzer connections are not currently supported on iOS. Users must manually enter PPM values for M21 inspections on iOS.
Performance Improvements
When compared to the previous version of Chateau Mobile, there are substantial speed improvements across the most frequently used handhelds:
