RS-096 Plug-In Water Leak Detection & Alarm System

Get an audible warning when water reaches a monitored area. The RS-096 plug-in water leak detection and alarm system pairs a wired sensor with a receiver to help you identify leaks near appliances, plumbing and water-fed equipment.

Detection and alarm, without a shut-off valve

The RS-096 sounds an 83 dB alarm when water is detected. It is a detection and alarm system, not a complete automatic water shut-off kit. If stopping the water supply is part of your goal, ask us to recommend an appropriate shut-off system.
