Why LoRa Wireless Changes
Everything for BC Buildings

Most leak detection systems depend on your building's WiFi. We don't. That one distinction is why insurers approve us  and why it matters for every strata, every property manager, and every contractor who specs us.

The Question That Wins Every Comparison

"What happens to your system when the WiFi goes down during a flood event?"

For most competitor systems it stops working. For LoRa, nothing changes. The system keeps monitoring, keeps alerting, and keeps protecting on a dedicated radio frequency that has nothing to do with your building's internet connection.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know

  • Frequent water damage claims can lead to increased insurance premiums or higher deductibles for the strata corporation. In some cases, insurers may impose water damage exclusions or decline coverage altogether. Implementing a proactive water management system demonstrates a commitment to risk mitigation, which can be favorable when negotiating insurance terms.

  • Water damage is the leading cause of insurance claims in condo and strata buildings, accounting for more than 70% of claims. A leak detection system helps detect leaks early, automatically shut off the water, and reduce damage before it spreads to multiple units. This protects owners, residents, and the building while helping reduce insurance costs.

  • The system uses in-pipe flow sensors and floor leak sensors placed in high-risk areas such as under dishwashers, laundry machines, sinks, toilets, and refrigerators. If abnormal water flow or a leak is detected, the system automatically shuts off the water and sends instant alerts by app, text, or email.

  • Yes. Unlike many systems that rely on the homeowner’s Wi‑Fi, the leak detection and automatic shut-off functions continue to work locally even if the internet or Wi‑Fi is unavailable. This provides more reliable protection for condo owners and strata managers.

  • No. The system is designed for both existing condo buildings and new construction projects. Most installations can be completed with minimal disruption to residents. Sensors are installed under appliances and at the main hot and cold water lines, while the building manager can monitor everything from one central dashboard.
