Technology House Bathroom
Flood detector
What it does:
- The detector provides an early warning of flood situations, like taps being left on.
- It should be placed on a flat surface near a bath, wash basin, toilet, or sink where a flood or leak might happen.
- It gives an audible alert in the home and can be linked to a lifeline unit for all-day, every-day monitoring.
How it can be used:
- Alerts a user that they have left a tap running so it can be turned off before causing damage.
- Alerts a loved one or carer that a user has left a tap running so they can provide support.
- Can be linked to a monitoring centre that can contact and arrange support if needed.
Who it's for:
- Ideal for homeowners, residents, or tenants living independently who may be at risk of an internal flood, whether from environmental factors or personal factors like memory loss, tiredness, and mobility difficulties.
