Water Detection Monitoring, Alerts, and Compliance Reports
A single undetected water leak can cause tens of thousands of dollars in structural damage, destroy irreplaceable equipment and inventory, displace tenants, and trigger expensive mold remediation — all because no one was on-site when the leak began. Properties left unmonitored overnight, on weekends, or during holidays are especially exposed, and by the time water damage becomes visible, the financial and operational consequences are already severe. Relying on periodic walkthroughs to catch water events is a risk management strategy that consistently fails at the worst possible moments.
Swift Sensors wireless water detection sensors stationed at critical locations, near HVAC systems, water heaters, sump pumps, roof drains, and basement areas, trigger instant mobile alerts the moment moisture is detected, enabling a damage-limiting response before a drip becomes a flood. The Swift Sensors Cloud Console provides continuous remote monitoring and peace of mind when facilities are unoccupied, while automated incident reports document every water event with precise timestamps and location data essential for insurance claims, property management accountability, and long-term risk mitigation planning.

Water Detection Coverage for Your Facility
Server Rooms
Server rooms in commercial properties require water detection coverage to protect critical IT infrastructure from water damage and ensure continuous operations.
Basements
Basements in commercial properties require water detection coverage to prevent leaks and flooding, safeguarding the building's structural integrity.
Restrooms
Restrooms in commercial properties benefit from water detection coverage to quickly identify leaks and prevent water damage.
Rental Properties
For rental properties, especially when the property is vacant, water detection sensors swiftly identify water leaks, preventing extensive damage and reducing repair costs.
Our Best Wireless Sensors For Water Detection
A water leak can occur at a commercial facility at any time, including after hours and on the weekends. It is critical to address the situation as quickly as possible to minimize the risk of damage to property, equipment, or inventory, and financial losses due to production downtime. Swift Sensors wireless water detection sensors are inexpensive and easy to deploy. The water detection puck can be mounted or simply placed on the floor or the base of a cabinet. The water presence spot sensor can identify water presence in a very specific location and the rope sensor can be utilized to alert personnel to water detected over a wide area.

FAQ
How does the Swift Sensors system work?
A Swift Sensors system requires the purchase of at least one gateway, at least one sensor, and a monitoring plan.
- We offer over 30 types of wireless sensors. Each sensor is smaller than a credit card and has battery life of 6-8 years. The sensor transmits data via Bluetooth 5 (BLE5) and connects to the gateway with a push of a button.
- The gateway receives data from each sensor and then transmits the data to the cloud console via local ethernet, WiFi, or cellular network (optional module). Each gateway supports up to 150 sensors within a 500 foot radius.
- The monitoring plan is very simple. The fee is based on the number of sensors you deploy. You can pay monthly, annually, or multi-year. There are no contracts required. View real-time analytics, download compliance reports, and receive instant mobile alerts on any device.
What is the signal range of the sensors?
The sensor range is generally 500 ft (150 m) depending on the facility infrastructure and equipment located between the sensor and the gateway. The sensors use the BLE5 wireless communication protocol which allows signal transmission through doors and walls constructed of standard building materials.
What is the battery life of the sensors?
Each sensor uses two AAA lithium polymer batteries with an average lifespan of 6-8 years. Replacement batteries are readily available at hardware stores and various retail locations.
How does the monitoring plan work?
The monitoring plan is very simple. The fee is based on the number of sensors you deploy. You can pay monthly, annually, or multi-year. There are no contracts required.
What is the Swift Sensors Console?
The Swift Sensors Console is a robust cloud-based monitoring, alerts, and reporting platform viewable remotely on any device. The Console is used for hardware setup and system configuration. The Console presents analytics that provide trend analysis, historical documentation, compliance reporting, and deep insights into equipment performance, facility operations, and environmental conditions. The platform is customizable and adaptable to any industry with unparalleled ability to search, filter, sort and view critical measurement and performance data. Configurable instant alerts enable immediate corrective actions when significant events occur. Alerts can be sent to individuals or groups via SMS text, email, or voice.
What about system security?
The Swift Sensors monitoring, alerts, and reporting platform was developed and is maintained by industry experts with extensive experience in network security. Sensor to gateway communication utilizes BLE5 and 128-bit AES encryption. Gateway to cloud Console communication utilizes ethernet, WiFi, or cellular (optional module) and 256-bit AES encryption. Data is securely transmitted over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) on port 443. The Swift Sensor network does not allow any outside communication. As a result, the Swift Sensor network is incredibly secure.
Can I buy just the sensors?
Swift Sensors only communicate with Swift Sensors gateways. Swift Sensors gateways only communicate with the Swift Sensors Console. The Swift Sensor network does not allow any outside communication. As a result, the Swift Sensor network is incredibly secure. The Swift Sensor Console, however, features a robust API which can be utilized to communicate with 3rd-party applications.
