Smart Leak Watch 24/7 · Sensor Innovation®

Leaks are found before water shows on the ceiling

Wireless sensors monitor moisture, water and temperature on the roof and in the structure around the clock. Any anomaly triggers an alarm immediately.

How it works

From sensor to alert in seconds

  1. Sensors measure

    Wireless Sensor Innovation® sensors measure moisture, water and temperature.

  2. Data to the system

    Data is sent in real time to the into® Control System (iCS) service.

  3. Alert is sent

    Any anomaly triggers a text message or e-mail to selected recipients.

  4. Act in time

    The site is inspected and repaired before the damage can spread.

Example

How monitoring looks across a property estate

Each sensor is named by building code. When even one deviates from normal, you see straight away which building and which part of the roof is affected.

iCS also offers an API that feeds alerts and measurements into property management systems.

When the storm hits

You know at once which property is letting water in

Heavy rain and storms test roofs across the whole city at once. Leak Watch raises the alarm from the exact property where moisture is rising, so help goes to the right place first.

FAQ

About Leak Watch

Who receives the alerts?

You choose the recipients yourselves – for example the property manager, the maintenance company and the chair of the board. Alerts arrive by text message and/or e-mail.

Do structures need to be opened up for installation?

In existing buildings, structures do need to be opened up. The sensors are wireless, however, and can easily be installed in new builds during construction.

How long do the wireless sensors last?

The sensors' built-in battery lasts more than 20 years.

Can Leak Watch be combined with a maintenance contract?

Yes. System installation and equipment are charged separately. Monitoring complements the spring and autumn inspections, and alerts are logged in the same maintenance history. Monitoring is also charged at a monthly fee based on the number of sensors.
