Building Managers
To solve these Challenges, Emily investigated how to use IoT technology to help her find and track water leaks and humidity damages which can also cause toxic mould. She reviewed various building management solutions and after careful consideration, partnered with an industry-leading company who addresses water leaks and other hazards in commercial facilities. The company extensively uses MultiTech’s advanced leak detection sensors and connected LoRaWAN gateways. This solution identifies and report leaks while also integrating temperature and humidity monitoring. She sees the potential for these sensors to assist insurance companies in more effective risk management, a feature that addresses her fear of not being insured.
Emily’s adoption of MultiTech’s Wireless Sensor technology ensures the building remains a secure and well-protected environment for all occupants — she can effectively and quickly identify and mitigate leaks across buildings remotely, and with ease.
Insurance Companies
Insurance companies also enjoy substantial benefits by installing Gateways and Sensors systems to track water leaks and humidity levels to detect issues well in advance of them becoming large, costly, damage claims. This also helps manage risk and helps attract new clients because of the proactive nature of the detection systems. Unfortunately, water damage claims have a high repeat frequency so this system will help reduce additional claims.
Early detection is critical to avoid illness, property damage, downtime, loss of use, business interruptions, and negative publicity.
