BEDFORD HEIGHTS, OHIO (June 20, 2018) — Every day a new smart home technology is introduced to protect against fire and theft. But what about water damage, the second-leading cause of insurance claims? Enter LeakSmart®, the world’s most intelligent and reliable leak and flood protection system for your home. Developed by a team with over 85 years of plumbing manufacturing experience, LeakSmart comprises four components: an electronic motorized brass ball valve that connects to a water main; a wireless water leak and temperature sensor; a central system hub; and a free smartphone application. All those work together to detect water leaks instantly and shut off a home’s main water supply in five seconds or less to prevent any further damage.

See LeakSmart for yourself at PCBC, one of the largest homebuilding shows in the country, June 27-28, in booth #2464 on the main floor at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.

“LeakSmart is leak and flood protection solved. Water in unwanted places can cause lasting damage to your home, your possessions, your health, and your bank account, making it the second leading cause for homeowners to file a homeowner’s insurance claim,” said Larry Waxman, CEO of Waxman Industries, the parent company of LeakSmart. “LeakSmart works on its own or with other Smart Home platforms.”

The LeakSmart System

The LeakSmart System is the most intelligent leak and flood protection system in the world that stops and prevents water damage before it starts. Unlike standard water leak detectors, LeakSmart detects and shuts off your water main automatically in five seconds or less to prevent any further damage. It easily integrates with other smart home platforms and provides 100% protection even if power and Internet go out.

At the heart of the LeakSmart System is the LeakSmart Valve, an electronic motorized brass ball valve that connects to a water main and automatically turns off a home’s water supply.

LeakSmart Sensors protect your most high-risk areas, including washing machines, water heaters, bathrooms, and HVAC units. They monitor for temperature and leaks, and automatically signal the LeakSmart Valve to shut off water in the event of a leak.

The LeakSmart System Hub 2.0 is the brain behind the LeakSmart System. By being connected to a home’s router and an electrical outlet, the hub communicates between the sensors, the valve, and the homeowner. LeakSmart’s hub is compatible with Nest®, Wink and Iris by Lowe’s.

The LeakSmart App is available on iTunes or Google Play. Once connected to a home’s LeakSmart System, it instantly notifies the owner and any emergency contacts when a leak is detected and monitors household temperature, battery life, and connectivity. The app also enables homeowners to turn off or on a home’s water supply from anywhere 24/7.

LeakSmart also offers the LeakSmart Sensor Range Extender to help boost signal strength to distant LeakSmart sensors as well as LeakSmart Hardwired Unit Systems for washing machines, water heaters, dishwashers, sinks, and ice makers.
