Smart Plumbing: Leak Detectors and Automatic Shutoffs

Table of Contents
Preventing Disasters with Technology
Water damage is one of the most common and expensive home insurance claims. But what if your house could detect a leak and turn off the water before the damage occurs?
Smart Leak Detectors
These small, Wi-Fi-enabled pucks are placed under sinks, behind washing machines, and near water heaters. The moment they detect moisture, they send an alert directly to your smartphone.
Automatic Water Shutoff Valves
Taking it a step further, whole-home smart valves monitor the flow of water through your main line. If they detect an abnormal continuous flow (indicating a burst pipe), they automatically shut off the water supply to the entire house.
Insurance Benefits
Many homeowners insurance companies offer significant discounts on your premium if you have an automatic shutoff valve installed, often paying for the device within a few years.
