You need this smart moisture sensor

TOPICS:

The weather is weirder than ever. Folks in the Southern California desert have found themselves getting flooded out, while the Northeast fluctuates between summertime weather and blizzards. It’s hard to know what Mother Nature is going to throw at you next. You need every advantage you can get.

An ounce of prevention

One risk of extreme weather is that something in your home or office will fail. A pipe will start to leak, or a roof will start letting moisture in. If this has happened to you, you know that it’s a very expensive repair if you wait until everything is completely flooded. What if you could stop the problem while it was still just a little drip? Now you can.

The Smart Moisture Sensor from Solid Signal is the answer.

An insurance policy in your pocket

Place the sensor where you want to detect water. There’s a very simple process for connecting the sensor to your home Wi-Fi. From there, an app on your phone constantly checks the sensor. If water is detected, you’ll know within 10 seconds. From there you can turn off a water line, call a plumber, or whatever you need. The problem gets solved before it even happens. The device itself can work for up to 10 months without recharging.

Why not use a simple moisture alarm?

You’ve probably seen devices for just a couple of dollars that do something really similar. Instead of connecting to your phone, they just have an audible alarm. That’s great, but what if you can’t hear it? If you’re worried about a leak in the basement, will you hear the alarm from your bedroom? I’ve used devices like this and while the alarm seems nice and loud, it really isn’t. Put something under your sink, and you’ll understand. It will get muffled by all the other stuff you have under your sink. You might not even hear it in the kitchen.
