Zircon Leak Alert Electronic Water Detector, 1-Pack Review

The first step to preventing water damage to your home is finding out when and where the water is entering the house. That’s often easier said than done, unless you’ve installed the Zircon 64003 Water Detector Electronic Water Alarm. For less than you’d pay for two fast-food meals, you could buy yourself year-round protection and peace of mind—and possibly prevent thousands of dollars in water damage, not to mention increases in your homeowner’s insurance.

The battery-operated unit has an automatic sensor that emits a loud, piercing alarm—similar to a smoke detector’s—when it comes in contact with water. Simply place the alarm near a washing machine, inside of a sump pump pit, on floor of a basement or crawlspace, or wherever you suspect water entry. This compact, set-it-and-forget-it alarm is only slightly larger than a deck of cards, and it’s powered by a 9-volt battery (not included). -- Joseph Truini

REVIEW:

How A Leak Alert Works

Place a Leak Alert wherever you could experience a potential leak or flood.

If the Leak Alert's contacts get wet, it will sound a loud alarm for up to 72 hours.

As with your smoke detectors, the battery should be changed on an annual basis. The unit will beep if the battery is running low.

Prevent serious water damage in your home with the help of Leak Alert. This self-contained battery-powered unit will sound a loud alarm the second it gets wet, alerting you to a potential water leak.

Place it Anywhere the Potential for Flooding or Leaking Exists:

Under sinks
Near water heater
In basements
Near dishwashers and refrigerators
Under fish tanks
Near plumbing and toilets

The Leak Alert sounds a loud alarm when it gets wet, so you can stop leaks before they cause serious damage to your home.
