LeakSmart Water Leak Detection and Prevention

Save Time, Call Prime!

Shut Off the Water…With Your Phone!

Water damage is the most common claim homeowners make to insurance companies. Just one burst pipe (which Prime Plumbing can fix!) can discharge as much as 15-20 gallons of water per minute into your home, causing lasting damage to your property, possessions, and your bank account.

What if there was a way to automatically detect a leak and then immediately shut off the water at its source? Well now there is. Home automation in plumbing has arrived! We have partnered with LeakSmart to provide our customers with the world’s most intelligent leak and flood protection available. LeakSmart offers a suite of whole home water protection and monitoring products that will detect a leak and shut off the water supply in less than 5 seconds. At the first sign of a leak, the LeakSmart sensor will sound an alarm and immediately shut off the main water supply.

Direct Appliance Shut-Off Kits

When attached, these devices can detect leaks and prevent damage. Kits are available for water heaters, washing machines, sinks, ice makers, dishwashers and refrigerators. Each kit includes a shut off valve, an easy-to read LED control panel, and a LeakSmart sensor. When a leak is detected, an audible alarm is sounded and the water to the appliance is shut off. The system can then be reset and reused. The control panel comes with a battery back up in case of a power outage and no internet connection is required.

Remote Home Monitoring

You can now protect your entire home by adding water sensors to high risk and hard-to-reach areas. Place them around washing machines, water heaters, bathrooms, kitchens and connect them via a LeakSmart Hub. Each Hub can handle up to 32 devices. When a leak is detected, it triggers an audible alarm and sends a notification (email, text, or push notification) via the Hub directly to you. Sensors and Hub come with a battery backup in case of a power outage

Whole Home Systems

A whole home system includes automatic shut-off valves, water sensors, and a Hub. The Hub is the central communication point between each sensor, valve, and you. Using this system, you can actually monitor the water flow rate and usage in your home allowing you to set limits and track daily, weekly, and monthly water usage! The system will work 24/7 with or without power and is controlled remotely through the LeakSmart App (Phone) or the LeakSmart Dashboard (Web). You are connected to your system anywhere in the world if you have connectivity. As an added perk, the LeakSmart Hub works with most home automation systems including Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Integration is quick and easy.

As an added bonus, all professionally installed LeakSmart systems are backed by a 5-year manufacturers warranty.

LeakSmart is also the perfect option for property owners to remotely monitor and protect their investment. Be it a rental home or vacation condo, LeakSmart provides the peace of mind complete 24/7 protection offers.

We think this tech is SERIOUSLY awesome. If you have any questions about LeakSmart, feel free to give us a call!

    My wife and were very pleased with the service provided by David Sizemore. He was friendly and explained the different aspects of the job at hand and possible outcomes ( clearing a backed up main ). He was forthright concerning the job and pricing. I would definitely use this company again and recomend them to others.

    Tim at Prime got me out of a bad situation. His team worked carefully and hard to complete the project. I had a total sewer line replacement and there were obstacles for Tim and Prime, but they kept me aware of the situation and rerouted everything as to not damage my porch. I am in a high water table area with broken clay, lots of sand and silt...but they reworked everything and I would not only endorse them but I would use them again in a heartbeat. Tim was honest and upfront with me. I couldn't have asked for more. I think these photos speak for themselves. I could add more but this was a difficult project and they more than met my expectations!

    I originally hired Prime to install a refrigerator water line and the initial visit went smoothly. Later, when the weather dropped, I discovered the way the line had been routed made it impossible to winterize my outdoor hose bib without also shutting off the fridge line — something that shouldn’t happen with proper setup. I contacted Prime again, and at first I was told the fix would cost over $600, which was disappointing given the issue came from the original configuration. (I believe this was just an internal communication issue.) However, they ultimately sent the same plumber, Sam, back out, and he corrected everything at no charge. He took full ownership of the oversight and handled the fix professionally and quickly. In the end, I appreciate that Prime stood behind their work, and Sam deserves real credit for making it right. Everything now functions exactly as it should.

    Very good with communication. Service man was great and completed everything that needed to be done. As a first time customer I felt the cost was a bit too high for the job of putting 2 new toilet kits and cleaning out one clogged drain.
