Guarding Against Flooding In The Home

How Can You Keep Your Home Safe?

It’s bad enough if your home floods when you’re there. Much worse, though, when you’re away and have no clue about the disaster that’s occurring under your roof when one appliance or another fails, or a pipe bursts, and the damage goes unchecked for hours, days, or even weeks.

Today, thanks to technology to the rescue, it’s easier than ever to keep track of your home’s infrastructure by monitoring conditions using a variety of devices and applications.

New Devices Are Smart, Affordable

Today, major manufacturers have developed a wide range of products and devices to help combat the flooding that can occur when valves fail, pipes burst, hoses blow out, or tanks corrode.

Smart devices with built-in alerts include water heaters, washing machines, and refrigerators. Inline sensors and bluetooth widgets that connect via wi-fi to your personal communications and can also alert you to problems before they become disasters.

Today’s digitally equipped appliances and smart home devices provide constant monitoring that will signal your smart phone wherever you are, with news that can help you minimize the physical and financial damage that can occur when plumbing fails.

Monitoring Your Home Appliances

Consumers now have the upper hand when it comes to home mechanical diagnostics. Knowing what’s available, and what that can mean for your peace-of-mind, makes a huge difference in maintenance and upkeep. From major appliances to inexpensive mobile sensors, keeping track of the health of your pipes is now easily accomplished.
