Automatic Leak Detection

24/7 Automatic Leak Detection for Apartments

Water damage is one of the most expensive and disruptive risks in multifamily housing. LeakSense automatic leak detection systems provide continuous monitoring with remote water shutoff capabilities, protecting your property from catastrophic damage before minor issues escalate into major insurance claims.

Preventing Hidden Leaks in Multi-Unit Buildings

Traditional leak detection relies on residents noticing problems or periodic inspections that catch issues too late. LeakSense uses IoT sensors and AI-powered analytics to detect abnormal water flow patterns 24/7, triggering immediate alerts and automatic shutoff when needed.

Our system monitors water usage at the unit level, identifying slow leaks, running toilets, burst pipes, and other anomalies in real-time. Property managers receive instant notifications via mobile app, email, or SMS, with the ability to remotely shut off water to the affected unit from anywhere.

Real-Time Monitoring & Alerts

Continuous water flow monitoring with customizable thresholds. Instant alerts sent to property managers and maintenance teams when anomalies are detected.

Remote Water Shutoff Valves

Motorized ball valves with manual override capabilities allow immediate water shutoff from mobile devices, preventing damage while awaiting physical response.

How LeakSense Automatic Leak Detection Works

Each apartment unit is equipped with a flow meter and motorized shutoff valve installed at the main water supply line. Our sensors continuously measure water flow rates and patterns, learning normal usage behaviors for each unit over time.

When the system detects flow rates outside normal parameters-such as continuous flow during typical sleeping hours or sudden spikes indicating burst pipes-it immediately alerts the property management team. If the leak meets critical thresholds, the system can automatically close the shutoff valve to prevent catastrophic damage, then notify both property managers and residents.

Key Features & Benefits

IoT Sensors

LoRa and Wi-Fi enabled sensors with 10-year battery life. No disruptive wiring required for installation in existing buildings.

AI-Powered Analytics

Machine learning algorithms detect subtle anomalies and distinguish between normal variations and actual leaks, reducing false positives.

Mobile Dashboard

Property managers access real-time data, historical trends, and control valves from iOS/Android apps or web portal from anywhere.

Insurance Integration

Automatic documentation of leak events with timestamps and flow data, streamlining insurance claims and potentially reducing premiums.

ROI & Cost Savings

The average apartment water leak costs $10,000 in damage and repair. LeakSense systems typically pay for themselves after preventing just one major leak event. Beyond damage prevention, property managers benefit from:

  • • Reduced insurance premiums (some insurers offer 5-15% discounts)
  • • Lower water bills from early detection of hidden leaks
  • • Decreased resident displacement and vacancy losses
  • • Improved resident satisfaction and retention
  • • Reduced liability exposure from water damage claims
