Nest and LeakSMART - A.J. Perri Skip to content

Working Together to Help Prevent Water Damage and Bring Peace of Mind

LeakSmart® is leak & flood protection solved. It helps detect and stops water leaks in 5 seconds or less so you never come home to a water catastrophe. Do you realize what would happen to your house if you had water damage? Whether it is a broken pipe that floods your entire basement or a leaking appliance backing up into your home, water damage can be a catastrophe and an emotionally trying experience. 9 gallons a minute alone can ruin your entire house. LeakSmart® is a revolutionary way to not only notify you if there’s a water leak but to also tell your water main to shut off automatically to prevent any further damage.

When paired with Nest®, LeakSmart® alerts you to turn off your HVAC unit if a leak is detected nearby. It reminds you to turn off your water main if you are away for more than 48 hours.

If the leakSMART® system detects a water leak when Nest® senses you’re away, it will automatically shut off your home’s main water valve and also give you the option to dial an emergency contact through the leakSMART® app. This integration helps provide even greater peace of mind and home protection from water damage. Additionally, since the combination of leaking water and extreme temperatures can spell disaster, your leakSMART® app will display your Nest® Learning Thermostat’s indoor temperature and humidity readings.

Leaks are disastrous. LeakSmart® is essential.
