GE Personal Security Water Leak Alarm, Efficient Water Leak Detection for Bathroom, Laundry Room, Basement, Garage, and Beyond, 45411 Review

These things have saved our lives more than once. We placed them near our washing machine/sink and water heater. The wash hose screen filter was once clogged with lint, and water splashed in all directions during washing. The alarm warned us so we could take care of it before the damage was done.

For example, if you're using this for a water heater in the attic or some other remote location, consider something…

I love this little water detector! It has a very loud alarm, easy to hear on the next floor. You can just flip the switch to stop the noise, dry the contacts, and then turn it back on. I have other non-switch sensors that just keep roaring while I desperately try to dry them out to clog them, so this is much better.
