“Damage caused by water leaks represent a significant threat for
many property owners and insurance companies,” said Robert
Spertina, CEO at iioote. “Solutions with Semtech’s LoRa Technology
are easy to deploy, allowing property owners to simply put
solutions into place to immediately prevent and combat water
damage. The IoT leak management solution is scalable by the number
of sensors, so almost any home can be covered, no matter its
size.”
iioote’s use of wireless, battery powered LoRa-enabled humidity
and temperature sensors are installed in areas of the home with a
high risk of water leakage, for example in bathrooms, kitchens and
basements. The sensors connect to a public or private residential
network based on the LoRaWAN™ protocol and report humidity levels
regularly. In addition, homeowners utilize iioote’s web portal tool
to monitor the data for humidity trends. In the event of a leakage
situation, real-time leakage alerts notify homeowners, allowing
swift action to prevent serious damage to property.
“Semtech’s LoRa Technology is a proven, easy to deploy solution
for smart home applications and LoRa-based sensors can be deployed
anywhere to collect valuable data,” said Byron BeMiller, Director
of Smart Building Applications for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing
Products Group. “For homeowners and landlords, the reliable data
provided by LoRa-based sensors is invaluable for trend analysis and
alerts, allowing buildings to remain in good shape. In the event of
a leak, fast responses limit resulting damages, saving property and
increasing customer satisfaction.”
