Save yourself from pricey water damage with your Cedar Rapids water sensor

Locate floods with your monitored Cedar Rapids water sensor before they become a problem

The biggest concern with water is a leak prior to it becomes a big deal. A broken pipe or cracked window is hidden until it’s discovered by seeing a puddle of water. That can lead to extensive water damage, particularly if a leak should fill your whole lower floors.

It is possible to sense leaks before they cause any damage when you pair wireless Cedar Rapids water sensors into your smart home system. The subtle, monitored detector seeks out rising water and alerts you through a high-decibel siren when it locates a problem. Then it will ping your Vivint monitoring specialists so that they can help access the situation and get a hold of emergency responders should the situation call for it. And never walk down the stair to an unexpected mess, as your water sensor will also send you a mobile alert.

Where should you put your Cedar Rapids water sensor?

Normally you want to install a water sensor in any spot in the areas where you might get standing water:

• Near toilets: Protect your bathroom flooring from seeping toilet tanks or backed-up toilets.

• Below sinks: Find blockages in the U-bend prior to having to replace your bathroom floors.

• With basement drains and sump pumps: Having a flooded basement in Cedar Rapids can add up to thousands of dollars.

• Nearby to water heaters: a Cedar Rapids water sensor will notify you if the water heater has rusted out or defective before it drains gallons of water in your home.

• Behind major appliances: Washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators have the potential to leak water and quickly soak your floors!
