SwitchBot Water Leak Detector

Is your washing machine leaking? Is your sink dripping? Or are you worried that something will flood your bathroom while you're on vacation? The SwitchBot Water Leak Detector is a small, smart device that detects leaks and notifies you immediately - wherever you are. No hub required, no complicated installation. Plug it in, place it where water might appear, and you're done. And when something happens, you get a notification directly to your phone so you can take immediate action.

Detects drips, leaks and floods

The sensor is equipped with precise sensors that respond to a variety of scenarios – from single drops to small leaks and floods. This allows you to detect the problem earlier and avoid costly damage. It will be ideal for a washing machine, dishwasher, under the sink or in the basement.

No hub, no hassle – ready right out of the box

The sensor works via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, so you don't need any additional devices. Simply connect it to the SwitchBot app and it's ready to go. The Wi-Fi range reaches up to 120 meters in an open area, so you can easily cover your entire house or apartment.

Real-time notifications

As soon as the sensor detects water, it sends you an alert via the app, email, or can sound an alarm or notify you via Alexa. This gives you four independent ways to be notified. Whether you’re at work, shopping, or on vacation, you’ll know right away that something is happening.

Waterproof with IP67 rating

Thanks to its submersion and moisture-resistant housing, the sensor is suitable for all conditions – in the bathroom, kitchen, laundry room or boiler room. Thanks to its robust construction, you don’t have to worry about its durability. The battery lasts up to 2 years. Since there are no wires, you can place it exactly where you need it most, without wondering where the socket is.

Works with the entire SwitchBot ecosystem

If you use other SwitchBot devices, the sensor can easily integrate with them. For example, when it detects a leak, it can automatically turn off the power, turn on the camera, or notify you with your voice via your Alexa speaker. It also supports Google, Siri, SmartThings, and IFTTT, so you can integrate it into your smart home.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Can I use the SwitchBot detector in multiple different areas of my home?

Yes, you can place the detector in various locations where there is a risk of leakage—for example, under the sink, next to the water heater, or next to the washing machine. If you have multiple critical locations, you can install multiple sensors and monitor them all through one SwitchBot app.

How does the detector notify about a detected water leak?

When water is detected, the detector immediately triggers a local audible alarm and simultaneously notifies you on your smartphone via the app, as it works on a WiFi network without the need for a ZigBee interface.

Is the installation of the detector difficult?

Installation is very simple: just place the detector on a selected surface and connect it to your home WiFi network via the app. There is no need for tools or electrical work, so you can install it without worry even in rented premises.

What is the detector range in case of thicker walls?

The range depends on the strength of your WiFi network; in most households it works flawlessly through normal walls. If the signal is weaker, you can consider setting up a WiFi amplifier for even better coverage.

Does the SwitchBot detector work without a smart control panel?

Yes, because it uses WiFi for notification, you don't need an additional smart switch or ZigBee system. You can configure the settings directly in the SwitchBot app.
