A modern 40,000-square-foot office building in Tampa, Florida avoided a major water damage incident thanks to the AlertAQ™ water intelligence platform.

Water leak detection at work

On February 20 at 10:33 AM, an overflowing toilet in a second-floor women’s restroom caused water to contact an Alert Labs water leak detector—installed just 12 days earlier. Once the sensor detected water, it immediately sent an alert through the AlertAQ™ water intelligence platform.

Immediate response and damage prevention

The facility management team responded within 30 minutes, preventing extensive top-down water damage and saving the building an estimated $100,000 in repair costs, according to the property’s insurer.

An automatic water leak phone call informed the property management team of the second-floor flood.
