Water alarm coverage is increased when additional moisture sensors are added. Flood Detective water leak sensors each have an eight foot (2.44 meters) long flexible, low-impedance corrosion-resistant wire with a two-prong jack on one end. The jack plugs into the sensor plate receptacle. This water sensor design allows multiple sensors to be daisy-chained to a single alarm unit. In theory, there is no limit to the number of sensors that can be daisy-chained to a Flood Detective alarm unit. However, 5 water alert sensors per alarm seems optimal in determining which sensor activated due to a water leak.
Each water alert sensor detects as little as 1/32" (0.8 millimeters) of water, sounding the alarm at the earliest sign of a leak. Each water leak sensor also has an adhesive backing for firm attachment and optimum orientation to detect water.
Use a single Flood Detective water alarm unit inside the kitchen sink cabinet to monitor sensors placed under the sink trap, garbage disposal, water filter and dishwasher. Daisy-chaining also extends the reach of the sensors, as each additional sensor adds another 8 feet (2.44 meters) of potential coverage.
