A Water Detector is a small electronic device that is designed to detect the presence of water and alert the user in time to allow the prevention of water damage.
“Even a single occurrence of flooding inside a home can lead to problems with lingering dampness, rot and the growth of dangerous molds that persist long after the surface water has been removed.”
A common design is a small device that lays flat on the floor and relies on the electrical conductivity of water to decrease the resistance across two contacts. The sensor may also be placed in a sump pump basin to give warning of a potential pump failure. These type of sensors should be installed in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and utility rooms.
