A flood can happen in a home as a result of many different situations. A washing machine can overflow, pipes can burst, sewage can back up, A/C condensation pan can fill up and overflow, condensation pan under the fridge can fill up and overflow, children might play in a tub adn accidentally leave the water on, a neighbor might drain their pool (or pool cover) and the water runs towards your home and down into your basement… and the list goes on.

Advantages of this meter include a generous 6′ cord for the remote sensor which can separate from the base unit quickly. This makes wiring the sensor from a remote area through a small space very easy.

The unit operates on a standard 9-volt battery, has a test button, has a low battery warning, and comes with a 1 year manufacturer’s warranty.

Hopefully you will never need a flood alarm… but anyone who has ever had flood damage in their home will tell you how much they really wish they had known sooner about the problem — beacuse of how much money it would have saved them.

Note: We suggest installing this flood alarm in an inhabited building/dwelling to make sure someone can hear the audible alarm if it goes off.

For uninhabited areas we suggest installing a wireless flood alarm.
