What Are Smart Leak Sensors?

Smart leak sensors are small, wireless devices that detect water leaks and send alerts directly to your smartphone. Placed under sinks, near water heaters, laundry machines, or sump pumps, they offer real-time protection against flooding or hidden leaks.

Benefits for Winnipeg Homeowners:

• Early detection of leaks and floods

• Prevent basement water damage - especially important during spring thaw or heavy rainfall

• Lower insurance risk — many insurance companies offer discounts

• Peace of mind when you're away from home

Upgrade to Smart Shut-Off Valves

Want to take things a step further? Smart water shut-off valves can automatically stop the water flow if a leak is detected. These devices connect with your sensors and give you full control via an app — even if you're out of town.

Why Winnipeg homes need this:

• Frozen pipe burst? The system can shut water off before damage spreads.

• Vacationing during winter? No more worrying about coming home to a flood.
  

Where to Install Smart Plumbing Devices

For best results, we recommend placing sensors in high-risk areas such as:

• Basements and crawlspaces

• Under kitchen and bathroom sinks

• Behind toilets

• Beside the hot water tank

• Around washing machines or dishwashers
  

In Winnipeg homes, sump pumps and foundation walls are also key spots due to seasonal flooding.

Bonus: Smart Water Meters

Smart water meters can help you track your water usage, detect unusual patterns, and identify leaks early. They're perfect for families looking to reduce monthly water bills or uncover hidden plumbing issues.
