Save yourself from expensive water damage with your Oakland water sensor

Detect floods with your monitored Oakland water sensor before they become a headache

Water leaks can spring up when you least expect it. A broken pipe or rusted water heater is hidden until it’s noticeable by finding a puddle of water. That can end in extensive water damage, particularly if a leak happens to flood your entire lower floors.

However, you can find leaks before they cause any damage when you pair wireless Oakland water sensors with your home security system. The subtle, monitored detector hunts down pooling water and tells you via a high-decibel siren when it detects a issue. Then it will notify your Vivint monitoring experts so that they can assess the scene and send emergency teams if things get rough. Your water sensor will even shoot an emergency message to your mobile device, so you can react to any water concerns when you're not home.

Where should you place your Oakland water sensor?

Normally you ought to install a water sensor in any spot in the house where you may find unwanted water:

• Behind toilets: Safeguard your bathroom tile from dripping toilet tanks or clogged toilets.

• Below sinks: Find blockages in the U-bend before you have to replace your bathroom vanity.

• With basement drains and sump pumps: Having a flooded basement in Oakland may cost up to astronomical amounts of money.

• Next to water heaters: an Oakland water sensor will let you know that the water heater might be rusted out or broken before it drops gallons of water everywhere.

• Surrounding major appliances: Washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators all can leak water and quickly soak your flooring!

How does a Oakland water sensor work?

Your Vivint water sensor can be an essential part of your Oakland smart home. Here’s how it functions:

• Sensitive water detection: The cutting-edge alarm notifies you and your Vivint monitoring team to any flowing or rising water.

• Temperature sensors for freezing weather: Vivint water sensors also pick up plummeting temperatures to prevent water damage from frozen pipes.

• Compact, wireless design: Just install them in any spot a leak can begin -- no matter how tight the fit.

• Phone alerts for lightspeed action: Frozen pipes or strong storms have a penchant for happening when you're not available. But don't fret. You'll get an alert any time your water sensor discovers a concern. Or look on the Vivint App anytime to check their status.

• Vivint monitoring provides another layer of protection: Your Vivint monitoring team will also get notified of any water problems. No matter where you are, aid will be moving your way!
