Detecting Leaks: Early Warning System

The Leak Defense System monitors water flow in plumbing systems and will sound an alarm if the water flow rate drops below a preset target. The system uses a motor driven ball valve installed on the incoming water line, which is connected to a small touchscreen panel that controls the system. Capable of detecting a flow as low as a cup per hour, the system will shut off the water flow automatically if a leak persists.  Sentinel Hydrosolutions; 866-410-1134; www.leakdefensesystem.com
