Water damage is one of the most expensive and stressful problems homeowners face.
A small leak under a kitchen sink, a failed dishwasher hose, or a frozen pipe can cause thousands of dollars in damage—often before anyone notices.
That’s why more homeowners are switching from basic leak alarms tosmart water protection systemsthat candetect leaks, alert you instantly, and automatically shut off water before damage spreads.
This page helps you decide whether a smart water protection system is right for your home—and how to choose the right setup in 2025.
Even a small leak can cause big problems. Most water incidents fall into three categories:
Average repair cost in North America:
Most homeowners don’t realize:
Insurance claims for water damage now exceed fire and theft combined.
> A smart water protection system helps stop leaks at the earliest possible stage—before damage spreads.


To truly protect your home, you need to address the areas where leaks most commonly occur.

A burst washing machine hose can release500+ gallonsper hour.
A modern system combinesthree layers of protection:

Sensors placed under sinks, behind appliances, and near water heaters detect moisture the moment it appears and send instant alerts.
Flow monitoring identifies abnormal water usage, continuous flow, and hidden leaks behind walls that sensors alone can’t detect.
When a leak is detected, the system can automatically shut off your main water supply—even if you’re away from home.
Together, these layers protect against bothsmall leaksandcatastrophic pipe failures.
Use this quick guide to choose the right setup:
Most homeowners choosewhole-home systems, because water damage rarely follows a single-room pattern.

Concerned about small leaks (kitchen, bathroom)
→ Leak sensors with mobile alerts
Want leaks to stop automatically
→ Leak sensors + automatic shut-off valve
Whole-home protection
→ Sensors + rope sensors + automatic shut-off valve
Vacation home or winter freeze risk
→ Full system with automation and remote control
Insurance-focused protection
→ Automatic shut-off valve with documented leak detection
Recommended Whole-Home Setup (Most Popular Choice)

One automatic water shut-off valve installed on the main supply line

Three to five leak sensors for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms

One rope-style sensor for water heaters or basement areas


Smart Water Protection vs Traditional Leak Alarms
Traditional leak alarms only make noise.
If no one is home, damage still happens.
A smart water protection system can:
It’s the difference between being warned about a leak andpreventing damage entirely.
Winter Freeze Protection
Frozen pipes are one of the leading causes of major water damage.
Smart systems help by:
Detecting abnormal flow caused by burst pipes
Sending alerts when temperatures drop dangerously low
Automatically shutting off water to prevent flooding
This is especially valuable for homes in colder climates, rental properties, and vacation homes.
Insurance Discounts & Smart Water Valves
Many insurance providers now recognizeautomatic water shut-off valvesas a risk-reduction measure.

Beide sind voll ausgestattete intelligente Wasserabsperrventile, aber AquaNet-VM geht noch einen Schritt weiter.
AquaNet-VM includes built-in temperature, pressure, and flow sensors, making it ideal for users who want detailed system diagnostics and environmental protection alerts.
AquaNet-BD focuses on core shutoff functionality and flow monitoring, with simpler installation and backup battery support.
>AquaNet-VM dient der hochempfindlichen Überwachung;AquaNet-BD steht für erschwinglichen, zuverlässigen Schutz.
Yes. Devices like AquaNet-M (immersion) and AquaNet-LD (cable sensing) can be linked with AquaNet-BD or VM. When a leak is detected, the valve can close automatically—creating a full leak detection system for home use.
Yes. AquaNet-BD supports a backup battery (Ni-MH), which ensures the valve can still respond during power outages. During blackout mode, remote app control is paused, but local valve operation still works.
Kein Hub. Keine monatlichen Gebühren.
All Grus AquaNet devices work on your 2.4GHz WiFi and are controlled via the Tuya Smart Life app—the same app used by millions of smart home users worldwide.
Es hängt davon ab, wie viele Bereiche Sie schützen möchten.
Eine Grundausstattung mit einem automatischen Wasserabsperrventil und einem Leckdetektor beginntunter 200 $.
Expanding to cover multiple rooms with cable sensors or hose valves can cost $300–$500—still far less than a single flood repair.
Absolutely. An automatic water shut off valve paired with leak detectors can prevent major flood damage when no one’s home.
Es ist der beste Schutz für abgelegene Immobilien, Mietobjekte oder kurzfristige Inserate.
Ob Sie mit einem intelligenten Absperrventil, einem Lecksensor oder dem vollständigen AquaNet-System beginnen –
