Leak Detectors Offer Immediate Notification

Some fixtures and pipes are more prone to leaking than others.

An older water heater can develop pinholes along its bottom due to corrosion inside the tank, and water pipes that lead to exterior water faucets can freeze and burst during cold winters.

So you may decide to install leak detectors in these areas.

A battery-operated detector will emit a shrill alarm when it detects even a small amount of water, so you’ll be able to turn off the water supply and have the leak fixed before water wreaks havoc in your home.
