Prevent costly water damage with your Blacksburg water sensor

Locate floods with your monitored Blacksburg water sensor before they become a headache

The biggest concern with water is it’s largely impossible to notice a leak before it becomes a problem. A deteriorating pipe or shattered window is many times only noticeable by stepping in a pool of water. That can end in major water damage, particularly if a leak should fill your entire bathroom or basement.

It is possible to sense leaks before they cause a big mess when you link Blacksburg water sensors with your home security system. The small, monitored detector looks for pooling water and notifies you with a high-decibel siren when it discovers a concern. Then it will notify your Vivint monitoring experts so that they can help access the situation and get a hold of emergency teams should the situation call for it. Your water sensor will even pass along an emergency message to your mobile device, so you can take care of water problems when you're traveling.

Where should you place your Blacksburg water sensor?

Naturally you ought to put a water sensor in any place in the vicinity where you could find abnormal water:

• Behind toilets: Protect your bathroom tile from leaking toilet tanks or backed-up toilets.

• Under sinks: Detect clogs in the U-bend ahead of having to replace your bathroom floors.

• Adjacent sump pumps and basement drains: Having a flooded basement in Blacksburg can cost up to thousands of dollars.

• Close to water heaters: a Blacksburg water sensor will notify you if the water heater is corroded or broken before it drops gallons of water everywhere.

• Behind major appliances: Washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators are capable of leaking water and rapidly soak your house!
