Water Leak Detection

Prevent Water Damage with Leak and Freeze Detection Equipment

Water damage is one of the most common and expensive types of homeowner insurance claims*, even though the majority of water leaks can be prevented. To help detect leaks early and prevent water waste and damage, install First Alert water leak and freeze detection equipment throughout your home to help detect and stop water leaks before they cause significant damage.

Water Leak and Freeze Detectors

The First Alert L1 WiFi Water Leak and Freeze Detector signals issues via audible and visual alerts and may also be easily monitored via the app. The five-foot-long expandable cable can sense both temperature and humidity shifts, allowing homeowners to take early action to help prevent leaks from worsening and begin any necessary plumbing repairs. The sensors in the cable also alert users if temperatures dip low enough to put pipes at risk of freezing. It is purposefully unobtrusive and easily sits under sinks or appliances with an easy-to-adjust cable.
