GENERAL USE AND APPLICATIONS
Use your smartphone, tablet or computer to monitor for water
leaks that could lead to frozen pipes and mold growth.* Water
damage can originate in almost any room: frozen pipes, broken
pipes, broken dishwasher hose or leakage, washing machine
overflow, leaking roof, basement leaks, foundation cracks,
plumbing leaks, sump pump overflow and leaks from bad
weather such as snow, rain or floods.* The good news is that
water damage is a costly problem that you can prevent: Simply
connect the gateway to your network router to enable remote
monitoring with text and e-mail alerts from anywhere with
Internet access.*

SPECIFICATIONS
IMPORTANT SETUP & OPERATION NOTES
Transmission range:
200 feet (60.96 m) in open space
• The sensor has a wireless range of 200 feet (60.96 m). The
200 ft. range equates to open air with no obstructions, and
that radio waves DO NOT curve around objects. Actual
transmission range will vary depending on what is in the path
of the signal. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors, ceilings,
etc.) will effectively cut signal range in half.
• Metal, stucco, and some types of glass can reduce signal
range by as much as ¾ or more, compared to the ½
reduction typical of most obstructions. It is possible to
receive a signal through these materials, however maximum
range will be reduced due to their tendency to absorb or
reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s signal.
• The Wireless Remote Water Detector updates the water
status on the LCD every 6 seconds.
Water status (H20/DRY):
6 ft. detachable water sensor cable
detects wet (H20) and dry (DRY)
conditions. Displays last reading on
LCD if probe is not connected.
