Excellent Leak Detection System — Reliable and Easy to Use
Excellent Leak Detection System — Reliable and Easy to Use I purchased the Hub + 4 Leak Sensors to monitor areas in my townhouse that are prone to moisture issues—under the HVAC unit, washer/dryer, refrigerator, and in the basement. After using them, I’m extremely impressed. Here’s what stood out: 👍 Easy Setup The installation was quick and straightforward. Each sensor paired with the hub without any trouble. 📱 Convenient Remote Monitoring The app makes it simple to check all sensors from anywhere, which gives me real peace of mind when I'm not home. 🚨 Accurate Alerts and Great Sound Quality The sensors react immediately to water. I had a real incident where my heating system’s pump failed on a very cold day. The device detected the leak instantly, and the app notification prompted me to call the HVAC technician before the situation worsened. Compact but Powerful The sensors are small enough to fit into tight spaces while still delivering strong performance. Their size makes placement very flexible. Overall, this has been a fantastic investment for protecting my home. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable leak detection system.

Great home link detection device
In my opinion this is a great system for leak detection. It was super easy to set up, and I had zero issues connecting any of the sensors. They all work throughout my house and the range is a huge plus. The app is easy to use and when I tested the sensors they immediately detected water. I would highly recommend YoLink for a leak detection system.

Simple, reliable, and worth It for the peace of mind
I bought this leak starter kit after dealing with a small leak under the sink that turned into a big cleanup job with a new cabinet...lol. I wanted something simple and reliable this time, and so far this system has been exactly that. Setup was super easy. I plugged the hub into my router, opened the app, and it basically did the rest. Each sensor paired with one button press. I had everything installed in maybe 10–15 minutes for entire house. What I like most is that these don’t depend on Wi-Fi. I’ve got one sensor tucked behind a toilet, another under the kitchen sink, and even one in a spot where my Wi-Fi normally dies... and every sensor still connects with no issues. I tested all four sensors with a damp paper towel, and they alerted instantly. I get notifications on my phone and email, which is great for when I’m not home. A big plus for me is the battery life. These use simple AAA batteries, but they’re supposed to last years, not months. And the app actually shows the battery level for each sensor, so you’re not guessing. It’s nice to know you won’t get blindsided by a dead sensor right when you need it. The sensors feel solid and the app is straightforward. Honestly, this setup has already given me more peace of mind than anything else I’ve tried.

A perfect system to prevent water damage in your home.
This Yolink water leak sensor system is really, really, excellent. I installed the hub and four sensors about a week ago and I am impressed. I first noticed the info about its LoRa radio link between the sensors and the hub. As an engineer I wanted to understand more about that technology. First, could it reliably maintain the link for that kind of distance, and second, can it do so with such a small battery draw to make it sensible for battery only powered sensors. If you read about LoRa on Wikipedia, along with the Chirp transmission method, you can see why it’s exactly the right radio link for small battery powered sensors at a long distance. It’s the same type of low speed data link that scientist use to track tagged animals in the wild. They need a small battery powered transmitter to chirp a few bits of data for as long as possible and over the longest possible distance. LoRa does that. And now the people at YoLink have used the same technology to build what appears to be the ideal system for homeowners to prevent a water leak from destroying property. One tech note here. When I first deployed the sensors in a guest house about 150 feet from the hub in my main house, I saw that the sensors were running with a radio link receive level of about -37dbm. That info is available from looking at the phone app. That is a very strong signal despite five or six walls and150 feet distance. However over about a day I noticed the radio link level dropped down to about -100 dbm. Even though one would think that is a low level, it’s actually still a good signal for a LoRa link. I think YoLink has done a very cool trick and have the sensors drop the transmitter level over a period of time in order to conserve battery life, at the same time still maintain a solid data link. That is why they are able to get years of life from a set of normal batteries in the sensor. It’s the perfect way to operate the alarm system. Loved the wired Ethernet connection option also. I suggest you use it instead of Wifi for the hub. I was so impressed with the initial hub and sensors after a couple of days I decided to go forward with purchasing the siren and water valve cutoff unit. I now have those in place and tested multiple times. The whole system works perfectly. When I place a moist paper towel under one of the sensors it alarms within seconds, the siren goes off, the water valve closes, I receive a notification on my iPhone, and an email as well. All four sensors were tested that way and they all four worked flawlessly. The hardware seems really high quality. Fit and finish, the cables for the hub and siren, and the sensors look to have good sealing to maintain the batteries in a dry and solid housing. I understand changing the batteries will be simple with just removing a few screws and taking the sensor apart. That is way better that just a clip like battery cover design. I did notice that the water valve hardware is not stainless steel. That will not be a problem if your water valve is inside, but mine is mounted outside. I plan to build a small housing to fit over the water valve to keep it out of the weather, along with keeping the steel hardware greased to prevent corrosion. But for the price, I think its an amazing device and system to same you from the disaster of water damage. Now a word about support, After I received the siren and water valve and got them paired to the hub it was not exactly clear if they were ready to automatically do their thing when a sensor alarms. So I called the support line and right away Clair answered and within a few minutes explained the process of getting things properly set up for automatic siren and water valve operation. She took the time to capture and send me screen shots of the app and stepped me through the process. The key is clicking on the Smart button on the app, then the automation button, then + to add a rule for each sensor. It’s quite easy if you just hit those buttons in the app. Setup took no more that a few minutes. Thanks Clair. I get the impression that YoLink has set the standard for a perfect water leak prevention system. The fact that’s it’s low cost is just an added benefit. And another note. My work involves taking care of high powered water cooled television transmitters across the country. I am planning to install YoLink sensors in every location. The cost is so low I will just add it to my monthly expenses. It’s not even a capital expense to do such an important upgrade to my remote sites. Just get the things, you will not regret it.

Works well overall, with great range and alerts
This YoLink leak detection system has been reliable so far. The sensors are easy to set up, the battery life is excellent, and the app notifications work instantly. I also appreciate that it works with Alexa and other smart home platforms. It gives me real peace of mind knowing I'll be alerted if a leak happens, especially in my basement and laundry room. The only problem is that the hub needs to be connected via Ethernet, which limited where I could place it in my home.

1. The product description states "effortless installation" - placing the units is easy - but configuring the software installation is not. If you are at all phased by IT connectivity - try another system that is more easily installed. 2. This was delivered to the UK from the USA - so it came with a USA 2 pin plug.

I just bought them the hub with 4 sensors and an extra 3 without the hub. They are all connected I used Ethernet connection to wifi on second floor. Hub covers right to main floor and furnace room and main shutoff in basement. I cannot say how long the battery lasts as just purchased. My friend had one and he to,d me 3 years and still hasn't changed battery. No false alarms so far. I'm happy with product. Seems made of good quality.

This is a really good, easy to use system that work terrific. I have them in my home and cabin, both for water leak detection and they have saved me twice from a water leak doing major damage. Besides the leak detection I have a water temperature monitor on my hot tub and a water depth finder at my cabins fresh water tank. I have never had any issues till recently the hub stopped working and was replaced on warranty. Thanks again.
