How the system comes together
leak sensors (sense)
building network and alert channels (control)
alerts and work-order triggers (actions)
quarterly point-test records (operation).
What makes the delivery work
every risk point has a named responder; false alarms reviewed; sensors serviceable, never sealed behind finishes.
Who it’s for
- Multifamily & Property Management
- US or Canadian project owners working with an appropriately qualified local installer
The project challenge
- A small leak can remain unnoticed between property inspections.
What the system should achieve
- Send a risk-location alert to the resident and the authorized maintenance contact.
Recommended system architecture
- Leak contact → vendor hub → local audible rule + authorized phone notification
- Keep notification acknowledgement and physical inspection in the response process.
Equipment & ecosystem choices
- Aqara Water Leak Sensor and a compatible regional Aqara hub
- Optional independently approved valve subsystem after plumbing review
Installation & technical requirements
- Place sensors at surveyed low points without blocking access; test with the manufacturer method, dry and restore.
- Site acceptance focus: Send a risk-location alert to the resident and the authorized maintenance contact.
Compatibility & construction constraints
- A leak sensor is not an automatic shutoff valve. Validate hub pairing, notification permissions and connectivity at every location.
- Permission to enter and repair is a human process; an alert does not authorize entry.
Make it your own
- For rental-unit leak alert package, confirm room/door/zone counts, agreed controls, notification recipients and installation stage.
- Specific decision: Permission to enter and repair is a human process; an alert does not authorize entry.
Preliminary equipment plan
- One sensor per independently exposed leak location; one hub per surveyed radio zone; spare batteries by maintenance policy.
- Scale by the surveyed scope for rental-unit leak alert package, not by a fixed package advertised without a site schedule.
What shapes the budget
- Risk-point count, obstructed radio paths, power/network access and optional plumber-approved shutoff work.
- Country/city, labor, taxes, shipping, warranty route and confirmed supply source; no price or stock is assumed.
