Whole-Home Leak Detection
Definition
Whole-home leak detection is a smart device installed on the main water supply line that monitors flow patterns, detects leaks anywhere in the home's plumbing, and can automatically shut off the water supply when an anomaly is detected. Insurance carriers often offer 5-10% policy discounts when these devices are installed and active.
