Smart water leak sensors are designed to detect the presence of water where it shouldn't be - such as under sinks, tanks, washing machines or heaters. They help prevent damage caused by leaks, seepage or overflows.
As soon as the sensor detects water, it activates its siren and also sends an immediate alert to your cell phone, allowing you to act quickly before the problem becomes bigger.
With this type of sensor, you can:
Receive real-time notifications about leaks
Activate audible or visual alarms in the room
Automatically turn off connected devices, such as the washing machine
Trigger routines, such as closing an electric valve (in more advanced systems)
They are small, discreet and battery-operated. Installation is simple - just place them on the floor, near critical areas where water can accumulate. The connection to the app allows continuous monitoring, even from a distance.
With smart water leak sensors, you can protect your home against unforeseen events and prevent damage quickly and efficiently.

Smart opening sensors are compact devices that detect when doors, windows, drawers or cupboards are opened or closed. They are ideal for increasing security, creating automations and giving you more control over what happens at home - even when you're away.
These sensors work by means of two parts: one goes on the fixed part (such as the doorframe) and the other on the movable part (such as the door itself). When the two parts separate, the sensor detects the opening.
With them, you can:
Receive real-time alerts on your cell phone if someone opens a door or window
Be warned about out-of-hours access attempts
Play a sound or trigger a light when opening a specific drawer (requires other devices)
Create automations, such as turning on the light automatically when opening the entrance door
Monitor access to restricted areas, such as cupboards with cleaning products or the baby's room
Installation is simple, with no tools required - usually with double-sided adhesive tape. Configuration is done via an app, and the sensor integrates with other smart home devices.
With opening sensors, your home is more secure, connected and intelligent, responding in real time to everyday interactions.
