Flow Monitors & Shut Off Valves

Apartment Conversion

Leak Detection System
Leak Detection System

Project Overview

A house in South Kensington was converted into 5 apartments, each equipped with individual flow monitors and shut-off valves to manage water usage and minimise potential water damage.

WIFI Connectivity Solution

Installed a WIFI extender in the basement vaults to connect the monitoring systems to the internet using the existing network.

App Functionality

  • Real-time Monitoring: Homeowners can monitor water usage and receive alerts via a mobile app.
  • AI Integration: The app uses artificial intelligence to learn water usage patterns, identifying anomalies and automatically alerting users through email and SMS.
  • Automatic Shut-off: If no response is received within 15 minutes, the system can shut off the water supply to prevent further damage.

Damage Minimisation

The leak detection system doesn’t prevent leaks but minimises damage by stopping water flow swiftly. Claims for escape of water incidents can be reduced by an estimated 90% with this system.

Insurance Company Role

The project was executed on behalf of an insurance company to proactively mitigate water damage risks.

User Benefits

  • Enhanced control over water usage
  • Quick response to potential water damage
  • Automated safety measures to protect property
