SMART LEAK DETECTION & AUTOMATIC WATER SHUTOFF SYSTEMS

From leak detection to automatic water shutoff—24/7 protection for your entire water system.

Why Do You Need a Smart Leak Protection System?

Water Leaks Are Not Always Visible

Water pooling on a kitchen, bathroom, or laundry room floor may be easy to notice. However, slow leaks inside concealed pipes, underfloor heating systems, toilet tanks, and water purification equipment can continue for hours or even days without being detected.

By the time damp walls, warped flooring, or ceiling stains appear, significant damage may already have occurred. Smart leak protection systems use water sensors, pipe flow monitoring, or a combination of both to identify visible and hidden water risks at an earlier stage.

Protection Continues Even When No One Is Home

If a pipe bursts while you are at work or away from home, a local alarm alone cannot stop the water.

An automatic shutoff system can close the main water supply immediately after a leak is detected. WiFi-enabled models can also send real-time alerts to your smartphone, allowing you to contact family members, property management, or maintenance personnel without delay.

Stopping the Water Is More Important Than Simply Sounding an Alarm

A conventional leak alarm only tells you that a problem has occurred. An automatic shutoff system goes one step further by helping prevent the problem from becoming more serious.

When water is detected near a sink, toilet, washing machine, water heater, or filtration system, the shutoff valve can automatically close the main water supply and reduce the risk of extensive water damage.

One System for Multiple High-Risk Areas

Depending on the system configuration, multiple high-risk areas can be monitored at the same time, including kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, balconies, basements, utility rooms, and water meter cabinets. When a leak is detected at any monitored location, the system can trigger an alarm and shut off the main water supply.

 

Motorized Ball Valve Leak Protection System

Smart water purifier shut off valve

A motorized ball valve leak protection system integrates the valve body, drive motor, control board, and communication module into one unit.

It is installed directly into the main incoming water pipe. Once a leak signal is received, the motor rotates the ball valve and shuts off the water supply at the source. This solution is suitable for new homes, furnished apartments, smart homes, large residences, and villas.

Fast Floor Leak Detection  Water sensing cables or metal probes can be installed under cabinets, beside washing machines, in utility rooms, or inside pipe shafts.

Automatic Shutoff Without Internet Access  The system does not rely on cloud services or mobile networks to detect leaks and close the valve.

Stable Wired Communication  Wired connections are less affected by walls, floors, or wireless interference, making them ideal for basements and low-signal environments.

  • FK-GS02D white retrofit valve actuator

    The device is installed externally over the existing valve, without pipe fusion, pipe cutting, or major plumbing changes. When sufficient installation space is available, mounting and commissioning can be completed quickly.

  • fk-gs05d-wired-retrofit-valve-actuator

    Under normal conditions, the actuator can automatically close the valve when a leak signal is received. During a power outage, maintenance, or an emergency, the original valve may still be operated manually, depending on the product design.

  • fk-gs07d-battery-retrofit-valve-actuator

    The compact actuator can be installed inside water meter boxes, pipe shafts, or cabinets. Before installation, sufficient space should be reserved for valve rotation, and the mounting bracket should be securely attached.

Kitchen Leak Protection

Install water sensors near the kitchen sink, water purifier, and dishwasher. If a hose disconnects, a fitting becomes loose, or a filtration system leaks, the system can trigger an alarm and shut off the main water supply.

Bathroom Leak Protection

Place sensors near toilets, bathroom cabinets, and water heaters to monitor hoses, angle valves, and equipment connections. Ultrasonic models can also help detect continuously running toilets by analyzing prolonged abnormal water flow.

Laundry Room and Washing Machine Protection

Aging washing machine hoses, disconnected fittings, or drainage failures can release a large amount of water in a short time. A sensor placed beside or underneath the washing machine can activate the shutoff valve when water is detected.

Whole-Home Protection for Villas and Large Residences

By combining a main shutoff valve, ultrasonic flow monitoring, and multiple water sensors, the system can protect multiple floors and water-use areas throughout a large residence.

Installation and Setup Process

 

Step 1: Check the Main Pipe and Valve

Identify the location, size, valve type, power supply, and available installation space of the main incoming water pipe.

Step 2: Select Monitoring Locations

Priority locations include kitchen sinks, water purifiers, toilets, water heaters, washing machines, balconies, and other high-risk areas.

Step 3: Install and Connect the System

Inline motorized ball valves should be installed by a qualified professional. Wireless systems require pairing between the main unit, gateway, sensors, and mobile application. Wired systems require sensor cabling and function configuration.

Step 4: Perform a Leak Simulation Test

After installation, use a small amount of water to test the sensors and verify the alarm, valve shutoff, mobile notification, and backup battery functions.

Step 5: Inspect and Maintain the System Regularly

Regularly check wireless sensor batteries, valve operation, communication status, and backup power.

 

Will the System Automatically Shut Off the Main Water Supply?

Yes. When an automatic shutoff valve is installed and correctly configured, the system can close the main incoming water supply after a qualifying leak event is detected. Trigger conditions and settings may vary by model, so a complete system test should be performed after installation.

Can the System Work Without WiFi?

Wired systems do not require WiFi for local leak detection, alarms, and automatic shutoff. Whether a WiFi model can continue local automation during an internet outage depends on the specific model. Remote control and mobile notifications normally require network access.

Will the System Work During a Power Outage?

Models with backup batteries can continue operating for a period of time during a power outage. Products without backup power may not be able to close the valve after power loss, so power configuration should be confirmed during product selection.

Do Wireless Sensors Require Wiring?

Wireless water sensors generally do not require signal cables. However, battery condition and wireless connection quality should be checked regularly.

Does the Valve Actuator Fit Every Valve?

The actuator is compatible with many common manual ball valves, but compatibility still depends on valve dimensions, handle design, installation direction, and surrounding clearance. A photo and measurements of the existing valve should be provided before purchase.

Will an Ultrasonic System Reduce Water Pressure?

Ultrasonic sensors normally contain no impeller or moving mechanical components, so flow resistance is relatively low. Actual pressure change still depends on valve size, installation method, and the existing water supply conditions.

How Many Sensors Can Be Connected to One Main Unit?

The number of supported wired inputs and wireless sensors varies by model. The correct configuration should be selected according to property size and the number of monitoring locations.

Does the System Require Maintenance?

Yes. Water sensors should be tested regularly, batteries should be checked, communication status should be verified, and the valve should be opened and closed periodically. A smart leak protection system does not replace routine inspection of pipes, hoses, fittings, and water-using appliances.
