How It Works

waterleakXsystems detects a leak as soon as it starts, shuts off the main water valve, and instantly alerts you regarding the situation.

Water Detection

A water leak can occur in a number of places throughout your business or home - employee restrooms and break rooms, dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machine hoses, or the vast network of piping and plumbing in your ceiling, floor, or walls. With our small, unobtrusive Water Detection Unit (WDU) placed in key areas, a leak doesn't stand a chance. Once detected, our system immediately transmits a signal via radio waves (1) to the Central Control Unit (2).


System Reaction

The Central Control Unit (2) receives the signal from the WDU (1) and immediately transmits a signal to the Valve Control Unit (3). This engages the Electronic Water Shut-off Valve (4) and shuts down the main water supply, stopping the flow of water to the entire building.


Reporting Alert

Upon water leak detection and automatic system shut down, you and two designated contacts will receive an alert (5) via text message or email to notify you of the leak and its exact location. With the waterleakXsystem in place, you will have peace of mind knowing that everything is under control even when you're not around.
