Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

There is an internal battery, c123a, in the sensor that needs periodic changing. It's a decent sensor to help you avoid thousands of dollars of water damage to your home. The sending unit has to be plugged up to work, but both the wall adapter and typ...  Read More

The hub is surprisingly small which is nice because you can place it anywhere conspicuously. Saved a crawlspace from being soaked. Hopefully this is just insurance we won't have an issue with the freezer again.

The detector itself gives out an audible alarm, so if you are home you could hear it. Bridging two of them to simulate a water leak, the notification was pushed to my phone from the meross app and apple’s home app near instantaneously. I wish the devi...  Read More

The app itself is also easy to navigate, basic and shows you how to set up or reset your connections or devices/sensors. Instructions are very clear and concise.

All-in-all the apple homekit integration appears a little clumsy. Requires an apple home hub in order to receive notifications, especially for remote notification. The entire setup worked fine, however, the manual could be written better.

    But it has a few limitations to be aware of


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Basically its to be installed in a place where there is a risk of water leaking and damage


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In my case that’s the upstairs bathroom where we’ve had a few tub leaks over the years that caused damage to the ceiling below


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When it senses water the alarm goes off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A couple of things to know is that it requires continual water contact with two of the pins in standing water for the sensor to go off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For me that means there’s the potential a substantial amount of water could leak before i’m alerted as i dont have a flat nonporous surface under my tub


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    To minimize the amount of water before detection i’m going to place the sensor in the lowest place under the tub and on top of a sheet of plastic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Hopefully water will be directed towards the sensor
