Few of us think about the impact of water damage
to our properties until it's too late and the damage is done.
According to a report from ConsumerView, titled 'Quantitative
Assessment in Europe', 50% of households in Europe have experienced
water damage. Similarly, the Insurance Industry Research organization
estimates that 14,000 people in the US experience a water damage
emergency at home or work every day and the annual cost to insurance
companies is approximately US$2.5 billion. When it comes to water
damage, there is no doubt that the cost to owners and insurers
can be crippling for citizens throughout the world.
Doing nothing and assuming that it can't happen to you is the
worst course of action. Fortunately, proactive, preventive measures
that utilize leading IoT technologies are now available and more and
more households and businesses are adopting them to set up warning
systems to prevent impending disasters. IoT solution provider, iioote,
has developed a preventative solution that uses Semtech's LoRa
®
devices
and wireless radio frequency technology. iioote's newest preventative
solution, SenseIoT, utilizes LoRaWAN
®
-enabled temperature and humidity
sensors, LoRaWAN gateways and the SenseIoT sensor-to-platform
system, which detects and addresses water leaks in private buildings
before damage can occur. Sensors are installed in risk areas in the
vicinity of water and sewage pipes, such as in kitchens, bathrooms and
basements. A LoRaWAN network connects sensors to the backend where
data is analyzed, visualized and acted upon. iioote's LoRaWAN gateway
