Avoid pricey water damage with your Richmond water sensor

Find floods with your monitored Richmond water sensor before they become a headache

Water leaks can come up when you least expect it. A deteriorating pipe or cracked window is hidden until it’s discovered by seeing a puddle of water. This can result in considerable water damage, especially if a leak happens to flood your entire basement.

However, you can find leaks before they cause any damage when you pair wireless Richmond water sensors into your smart home system. The subtle, monitored detector seeks out rising water and tells you through a loud siren when it discovers a concern. Then it will ping your Vivint monitoring experts so that they can help access the scene and send emergency services if needed. Your water sensor will even pass along an emergency alert to your phone, so you can react to any water issues when you're traveling.

Where should you put your Richmond water sensor?

Typically you need to put a water sensor in any spot in the vicinity where you might see abnormal water:

• Near toilets: Guard your bathroom flooring from leaking toilet tanks or stuck-up toilets.

• Under sinks: Catch blockages in the U-bend prior to having to swap your bathroom vanity.

• By basement drains and sump pumps: Finding a underwater basement in Richmond can add up to thousands of dollars.

• Close to water heaters: a Richmond water sensor will notify you if the water heater might be leaking or faulty before it drains gallons of water everywhere.

• Behind major appliances: Washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators all can leak water and easily soak your floors!

How does a Richmond water sensor work?

Your Vivint water sensor is an essential part of your Richmond smart home. Here’s how it works:
