water leak detector

Plumbing problem alarm

A water leak detector is a device that senses the presence of water where it shouldn't be—near water heaters, under sinks, in basements.

Most trigger an alarm when moisture contacts their sensors; smart versions send alerts to your phone.

The water leak detector went off at 3 a.m. and saved us from a flooded basement.
