Customisable kits. This is one of the Milesight LoRaWAN kits in the Smart Home Kit section. For different installations, custom kits or bespoke automation, write to us from the contact section.
Several sizes. The figures, diagram and table on this page describe the «3 floors, 16 points» size. The other sizes are selected at the top and are listed further down, under «Available sizes».
4 zones with sensing cableThree metres of cable along walls, pumps and pipework: it detects water at any point along the run.
4 spot sensorsTwo-electrode probe at the low points of bathrooms and kitchens, with room temperature and humidity.
6 floor sensorsPlaced under water heaters and washbasins: alarm from just 0.5 mm of water, with buzzer.
2 membranesSensing sheet of 40 × 40 cm under raised floors and UPS panels.
What it does
- Each sensor carries the name of the room where it is installed: the notification tells you immediately where to act, with no need to hunt for the leak floor by floor.
- In boiler rooms and pump rooms a 3 m sensing cable follows walls, bases and pipework and detects water along its whole run.
- In bathrooms and kitchens the two-electrode probe, fixed at the lowest point, raises the alarm when the water reaches 5 mm.
- Under water heaters, washbasins and dishwashers the floor sensors report a 0.5 mm film of water and sound on the spot with the built-in buzzer.
- Under raised floors and UPS panels the sensing membrane watches over a surface, not a single point: it detects the water that wets the sheet.
- The cable and probe sensors also measure temperature and humidity: in plant rooms they serve as a frost alarm and let you see condensation.
- Event history, charts and notifications can be consulted from a smartphone and from a PC.
For a different number of floors or points, sensing cables of a different length, automatic control of a shut-off valve, if the building has no internet connection and a 4G gateway is needed, for large buildings or buildings with several stairwells: tell us the characteristics of your building from the contact section and we will propose the correct configuration together with the quotation.
1Compact indoor LoRaWAN gateway, on the middle floor, connected to the building network: it collects the alarms from every floor and takes them to the cloud.
2Zone leak sensor with 3 m sensing cable, IP67, in the boiler room and in the pump rooms. Four in the kit.
3Spot leak sensor with two-electrode probe, IP67, in bathrooms and kitchens. Four in the kit.
4Floor leak sensor with buzzer, IP67, under water heaters and washbasins. Six in the kit.
5Membrane leak sensor, 40 × 40 cm sheet, under raised floors and UPS panels. Two in the kit.
How it is installed
Gateway. Compact indoor unit (IP30, operation from -20 to +50 °C): on a desk, on the wall or on the ceiling with the supplied plate, on the middle floor and in a central position, for example in the service room or in a corridor. USB-C 5 V power supply with an ordinary 2 A adapter, network connection with an Ethernet cable or the building Wi-Fi.
Sensing cable in the plant rooms. Transmitter on the wall with screws, double-sided tape or a cable tie, above the level the water can reach. The 3 m cable is laid on the floor along the walls, around the pump bases or wrapped around the pipework, held with floor clips and with cable ties on the pipes: never with glue nor with metal parts. It must be kept out of walkways, away from sharp edges and from permanently wet spots; the connectors must stay dry. The cable cannot be extended.
Spot probes in bathrooms and kitchens. Transmitter on the wall, probe connected with a 1.5 m cable and fixed with screws or double-sided tape at the point where the water collects first: next to the floor drain, under the sink, in the collection tray. The two electrodes must face the point where the water gathers and must not touch metal parts.
Floor sensors and membranes. The floor sensors are laid flat, without fixing, under water heaters and washbasins, away from metal objects. The membrane is an adhesive sheet of 400 × 400 mm, which can be cut to size, with a 1 m cable: it is glued down fully flat, without creases, on a clean flat surface, on the slab under the raised floor or under the UPS panel; the black tracks must not be scratched. The transmitter stays accessible, on the wall or on the upright.
Configuration. Over NFC with a smartphone and the manufacturer's free app: name of the room and of the floor for each sensor, reading intervals, temperature thresholds. The gateway is configured from a browser. No cables and no paid software are needed.
Documentation included. Written installation guide with the route of the sensing cables, the position of the probes and of the membranes, the power-up sequence, and the initial configuration with the names of the floors and rooms given when ordering.

Before you order
Is an internet connection needed in the building?
It is needed at the point where the gateway is installed: a network socket or Wi-Fi coverage. The sensors do not use Wi-Fi, they talk to the gateway by radio. If the building has no usable line, as happens in apartment blocks, the version with a 4G gateway is available, which requires a data SIM (not included, any operator, less than 1 GB of traffic per month). You choose it when ordering.
Does the signal reach from the basement?
Inside a building the range depends on walls and floor slabs: the gateway goes in a central position, on the middle floor. For three floors with a single stairwell the compact gateway is adequate. With boiler rooms in deep basements, very thick reinforced concrete structures, several stairwells or several blocks, choose the «large building» variant: semi-industrial IP65 gateway, with more range and able to be powered over PoE. One gateway handles hundreds of sensors.
When the water arrives, does it also close the valve?
No: the kit detects and warns. The notification reaches the smartphone with the name of the room; the floor sensors also sound on the spot. To shut off the supply automatically you need a controller with a solenoid shut-off valve, which is added to the kit on request: write to us from the contact section.
Which sensor goes where?
The sensing cable where the leak can start at several points: pipe runs, manifolds, pump sets. The spot probe where the water collects at a low point. The floor sensor where maximum sensitivity and an audible warning are needed: under water heaters, washbasins, dishwashers. The membrane where the surface to protect is flat and hidden: under raised floors, panels, UPS cabinets.
I have more floors or more points to watch
Among the product options you will find the 24 and 32 point sizes, with the four types of sensor in proportion; gateway and platform stay the same. For a different split between the types of sensor or for longer sensing cables, available to order, write to us from the contact section stating floors, plant rooms and number of bathrooms: we will send you the composition and the quotation for the adapted kit.
Battery life
Cable, probe and membrane sensors: about 10 years declared with a good radio signal, around 5 with a weak signal. Floor sensors: about 5.7 years with a coin cell. The batteries can be replaced and the charge level is visible in the app.
Where is the data consulted and are there any fees?
In the manufacturer's app and portal, from smartphone and PC, with history, thresholds and notifications; no fee for basic use. Where a building management system or maintenance software is present, the gateway can also send the data to that system (MQTT or HTTP): the configuration is included.
What happens if the internet is down?
The sensors keep detecting and transmitting to the gateway, but the notifications on the smartphone only arrive once the line is back. The six floor sensors sound on the spot anyway: three beeps, repeated every minute five times over. Where the line is not reliable the 4G version is the better choice.
Is an electrician or a plumber needed?
No. All the sensors are battery powered and are fixed with screws, double-sided tape, clips or cable ties; none of them has to be fitted into the pipework. The gateway is powered from a 5 V USB-C outlet and connects to the network with an Ethernet cable or over Wi-Fi.
Are they water resistant?
All the sensors are IP67. The cable, probe and membrane transmitters work from -30 to +70 °C, the floor sensors from -10 to +60 °C. The compact gateway is IP30: it goes in a dry room, not in the boiler room.
What is not included
- Shut-off valves, pumps and systems: the kit detects leaks, it does not act on the system
- The data SIM, in the version with a 4G gateway
- The 5 V USB power supply for the gateway, if you do not already have one
