Why leak detection
Leaks do their damage while nobody's looking.
The damage from a leak is mostly a function of time. In empty buildings, plant rooms, cellars and server rooms, nobody hears the hiss or sees the damp patch until the next visit.
Finding out the old way
Leaks found on the next visit or inspection
Water running for days in empty buildings
Ceilings, stock and equipment damaged before anyone knows
Leak detection wired into the BMS
Trackpac leak alerts
An alert by SMS, email or push as soon as water is detected
Every property and plant room on one dashboard
A history of every incident to track down recurring drips
Battery-powered sensors with no wiring, Wi-Fi or SIM
The platform
Protection that works when nobody's there.
Put a sensor at each point where water is most likely to escape or collect, and Trackpac tells the right person as soon as it does.
Instant leak alerts
Get an alert by SMS, email or push as soon as water reaches a sensor, day or night, even when the building is shut.
Alert the right people
Send each alert to whoever needs to act: the owner, letting agent, void team, FM helpdesk or on-call engineer.
Works when the network doesn't
Sensors report over LoRaWAN®, not the building's Wi-Fi, so alerts still get out when the local network is down or the broadband has been cancelled.
Every site on one dashboard
Tag sensors by property or site and see every store, plant room and empty building in one place.
A record of every incident
Leak history helps you track down recurring drips and spot the units that keep blocking.
Moves with your voids
Battery-powered sensors need no wiring, so a kit can go in at key return and move on to the next empty property.
Choose a leak sensor below, or bring the LoRaWAN® leak sensors you already own.

Scan and place
Scan the QR code to add a sensor, then put the probe at floor level where water would collect. No wiring needed.

Get alerted
Choose who's told and how. Alerts go out by SMS, email or push the moment a leak is detected.
Choose your sensor
Probe and rope leak sensors for under sinks and tanks, beside boilers and water heaters, under air-con units and along floor voids. Not sure which fits? We'll help you choose on a demo call.
Trackpac runs its own LoRaWAN® network and roams on the Helium Network, so there's already coverage across much of the globe. Your sensors can connect as soon as they're switched on, with no network to build.
Need guaranteed coverage deep indoors or on a remote site? Add a gateway: our LoRaWAN® consultancy team can plan placement, and we can supply and manage the gateways for you.
How leak detection works, where sensors go and what it's worth.
How do you monitor a water leak?
Water leaks can be monitored using water leak detection systems or devices. These systems typically consist of sensors placed in strategic locations where leaks are likely to occur, such as near plumbing fixtures, appliances, or in basements. Trackpac offers Water Leak Detection System as part of its IoT dashboard, providing real-time alerts and notifications to help prevent water damage and mitigate risks.
Are water leak detectors worth it?
Yes, water leak detectors are worth it for preventing water damage, minimizing repair costs, and providing peace of mind to homeowners or property managers. Early detection of water leaks can help avoid costly water damage and mold remediation, as well as prevent damage to valuable belongings or property. Trackpac's Water Leak Detection System feature enhances its IoT dashboard, offering comprehensive protection against water-related risks.
Is there a tool to detect water leak?
Yes, there are various tools available to detect water leaks, including water leak detection systems, moisture sensors, acoustic leak detectors, and thermal imaging cameras. Each tool has its advantages and is suitable for different types of leaks and environments. Trackpac integrates Water Leak Detection System into its IoT dashboard, providing users with an effective tool for detecting and mitigating water leaks.
How do you figure out where a leak is coming from?
To figure out where a leak is coming from, start by visually inspecting areas where leaks are common, such as under sinks, around appliances, or in basements. Look for signs of water damage, including dampness, discoloration, or mold growth. If the source of the leak is not apparent, use tools such as moisture sensors, acoustic leak detectors, or thermal imaging cameras to locate the source. Trackpac's Water Leak Detection System feature assists in identifying and locating leaks, providing actionable insights to address water-related issues effectively.
What are the common causes of water leaks in residential or commercial buildings?
Common causes of water leaks include plumbing failures (such as burst pipes or leaking fixtures), roof leaks, appliance malfunctions (such as water heaters or washing machines), foundation cracks, and weather-related events (such as heavy rain or snowmelt).
How can water leak detection systems help prevent water damage?
Water leak detection systems help prevent water damage by detecting leaks early and sending real-time alerts to homeowners or property managers. By providing early warning of potential leaks, these systems allow for prompt intervention to mitigate damage, such as shutting off the water supply or repairing the source of the leak.
What are the benefits of integrating water leak detection with a larger IoT platform?
Integrating water leak detection with a larger IoT platform offers several benefits, including centralized monitoring and control of multiple sensors and devices, enhanced data analytics capabilities for identifying trends and patterns, integration with other smart home or building automation systems, and the ability to remotely monitor and manage water-related risks.
How do water leak sensors detect leaks in different environments, such as residential homes versus commercial buildings?
Water leak sensors use various detection methods, such as moisture sensors, flow sensors, or acoustic leak detection, to detect leaks in different environments. These systems can be tailored to specific applications and environments, with sensors placed strategically in areas prone to leaks, such as kitchens, bathrooms, mechanical rooms, or utility corridors.
What are some considerations for selecting and installing water leak detection sensors?
Considerations for selecting and installing water leak detection sensors include identifying key areas for sensor placement, choosing sensors with appropriate detection capabilities for the environment, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure and IoT platforms, considering power sources and connectivity options, and planning for regular maintenance and testing.
Can water leak sensors help reduce insurance premiums?
Yes, some insurance companies offer discounts on premiums for homeowners or businesses that have installed water leak detection systems. These systems demonstrate proactive risk management and can help prevent costly water damage claims, making them attractive to insurers.
