Aeotec SmartThings – Water Leak Sensor

Stop water damage before it can ruin your home. The Aeotec Water Leak Sensor (built for the Samsung SmartThings ecosystem) is a tiny, highly intelligent monitor designed to protect your bathroom, kitchen, or basement. Simply place it on the floor next to your washing machine, toilet, or under the sink. The moment it gets wet, it instantly alerts you via a push notification on your smartphone or smartwatch.

Top and Bottom Detection Contacts

This minimalist white sensor stands out by featuring sensing contacts on both the top and the bottom of its enclosure. Whether a leaky pipe is dripping water directly onto the top of the unit, or a puddle is slowly forming underneath it on the floor, the sensor immediately registers the moisture and triggers a Zigbee alarm to your smart home hub.

Built-in Temperature Sensor

Beyond leak detection, the sensor actively monitors ambient room temperature. This acts as a vital safeguard during the winter; if the temperature drops too close to freezing, the sensor sends a warning, giving you time to prevent a pipe burst. By pairing the sensor with a motorized water valve via SmartThings, you can create a routine that automatically shuts off your home's main water supply at the very first drop.
