Avoid Costly Water Damage to your home with the INSTEON Water Leak Sensor
The risk of water damage in a home is high. In fact, it is one of the most common home insurance claims. Every year millions of homeowners suffer billions of dollars in losses. But these losses can be reduced or even avoided altogether with the new INSTEON Leak Sensor.
Leak Sensor alerts you so you can stop the leak before damage to your home occurs. Simply add as many sensors as you’d like to the INSTEON Hub* (sold separately) and get instant alerts delivered via text/email to your smartphone. The INSTEON Hub also allows you to add cameras for remote monitoring, motion sensors, door/window sensors and of course control over lighting and appliances in your home.
*The Leak Sensor transmits via radio signals. The INSTEON Hub communicates via power-line only. Please be sure to have a Range Extender/Access Point or other dual-band INSTEON device installed for communication between Leak Sensor and INSTEON Hub.
For more advanced applications, consider HouseLinc or ISY-99. Together with a leak sensor you can activate a whole-house water shutoff valve when water is detected. These solutions also provide text/email alerts as well as more advanced conditional programming.
This easy to use, battery powered leak sensor can provide the early detection necessary to prevent leaks from creating major damage to your home.
The INSTEON Leak Sensor installs quickly and easily – no need to run wires or drill holes. Simply place the sensor near where water leaks may occur. Some common places are:
- Washing machines
- Toilets
- Water heaters
- Sinks
- Refrigerators (water filters)
- Dishwashers
- Basements
- Water Softeners
Sunday Deal! Be the Next Ghost Hunter and You Don’t Have to Break the Bank to do so!
Are there ghosts that lurk around us as we go about our daily lives?
Come to your own conclusion and do your own investigation using the Ghost Meter. Aside from a camera, it is the most basic tool for any ghost hunter. When ghostly activity takes place, electromagnetic anomalies often occur in the environment. This meter allows you to detect these electromagnetic frequency (EMF) disturbances.
The Ghost Meter is an accurate instrument with a needle readout that measures from 0 to 5 milligaus and is devoted to monitoring high quality paranormal activity. The Ghost Meter has been calibrated to ignore the extremely subtle EMF emissions surrounding the human body, yet is still sensitive enough to detect the small, distinct, erratic EMF energy fluctuations frequently found at reputed haunted locations. An adjustable audio tone and flashing LED light indicators are built in that allow you to use the meter in the dark or without looking at it and detect activity from far away. It can also be operated in silent mode so it doesn’t interfere with EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) recordings or distract other investigators during an investigation. Strong, erratic, and/or fluctuating readings are commonly found in haunted locations as these energy fields seem to have a connection to the presence of ghosts. Often, pictures taken of the area where these reading occur will produce an apparition. Be the next ghost hunter and conduct your own paranormal surveys anywhere you go with this lightweight, compact ghost meter.

Leak Sensor alerts you so you can stop the leak before damage to your home occurs. Add the sensor to an INSTEON computer controller such as HouseLinc and configure the software to email or send text messages upon an alert from the sensor.
Fully automate it! You can manually link the sensor (or via software, use a macro) to control a whole-house shutoff valve so it can automatically turn off all water to your home. You could even flash lights.
