🚨 Don’t Let Water Catch You Off Guard!
The Water Detection System operates on 8 to 28 VAC/DC, providing early alerts for water leaks. It is compatible with most security and home automation systems, allowing for flexible sensor placement up to 100 ft away. With the ability to connect up to 6 sensors and offering both normally open and normally closed contact outputs, this system ensures comprehensive monitoring and peace of mind.

Works Great!
I bought this to put in my basement sump pump basin to monitor high water level resulting in a pump failure, and I wanted to tie into my home monitoring/alarm service. Works great! Incredibly easy to install. Just two tips. 1) you need to buy the power supply to have it function in this setup and the power supply does NOT come with this unit -- sold separately, 2) I found I had to install a 1 ohm resistor between the two "S" ports on this unit, basically sticking one end of the 1 ohm resistor into one "S" port along with one of the water detector leads and sticking the other end of the resistor into the other "S" port along with the other water detector leads. My alarm/monitoring unit is then wired to the "C" and "NO" ports on this unit. Works like a charm. Now my monitoring service will call my mobile whenever it detects high water just as it would call me if there is an intrusion. My monitoring service knows this "alarm" notice is water so it tells me that its detected a "water bug" alarm vs an intrusion, etc. Great unit! Highly recommended!

Good as an exact replacement
I purchased this as an exact replacement for an existing Waterbug Water Sensor.I will not comment on the Waterbug's effectiveness compared with competing products because I do not know about other water sensors.The Waterbug Water Sensor that I replaced operated properly for six (6) years.

Sensitivity is very good, works as advertised
works well, I use this mainly as a relay switch for another snmp managed device so a bit off the beaten path from the instructions. Sensitivity is very good , works as advertised.

Hard wire required... not sure on return process
We returned it as you have to hard wire this. I got a notice that my refund amount is about $2 less than I paid. Not sure why!

Used for well pump shut off
Decided to use this product as a shut off for my well pump in case my water system sprung a leak in the basement. I this this instead of using some of the ball valve sensors available on the market. Used the waterbug, a 24V power supply, along with a Schneider motor contactor to interrupt the power before the well pump pressure switch.

Great Little Unit
Installed this unit on a rental property with a well pump. Wired a second unit in parallel for the hot water heater in the utility room. The controller is then wired through a pump controller to disable the pump if it senses water on the floor from a leak. Works great and easy to install and test.

Works like it's supposed to
Works like it's supposed to. I have it shutting off my thermostat if my pan gets any water in it.
