Water Leak Detectors

Most homeowners have a healthy fear of fire. This is good; fire can cause tremendous damage to a home and everything in it. However, homeowners should have the same cautiousness when it comes to the possibility of water damage. Not only can it be just as damaging, but it is far more common. There are many sources to consider: pipes, water heaters, toilets, washing machines, dishwashers, even refrigerators if you have a water dispenser in the door.
Smoke detectors are common in areas where fire is a potential, but far less common are water detectors. While a leak detector may not save your life the same way a smoke detector can, it can still save you from a huge headache and a lot of damage.
