Water Sensors to Help Detect Plumbing Leaks

Plumbing leaks create a host of problems, and when the leak is not found, damage continues to occur. The best solution is to attempt to stop a leak before it becomes an issue.

In hard-to-access areas of plumbing, water sensors can be of great use. Wireless water leak detectors are able to sense a leak and then turn off the water to prevent further damage. The wireless water leak detector sounds an alarm alerting the homeowner that there is a leak in the pipe. This can save hundreds of dollars and headache.

Water leak sensors are cables that contain gold-plated copper every few feet. When two of the metal plates are connected by even a tiny amount of water, they form a current. This sounds an alarm, alerting a plumbing technician of a leak in the pipe.

There are also battery powered water leak sensors that can be placed in leak-prone areas of your home, such as behind toilets, in the laundry room or near the hot water tank. These water leak sensors will alert you to the presence of water before the water has a chance to damage property.
