Water leaks can create major, costly problems. From warped hardwood floors to ruined inventory to burst pipes that bring operations to a halt, water damage is one of the most expensive and disruptive issues a property owner can face. In fact, insurers pay out $13 billion annually for water damage claims, and 14,000 homes experience water damage every single day.
Guardian Protection now offers a smarter, more proactive solution to help stop leaks before they become disasters: the PowerG+ Water and Freeze Sensor. Designed for homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial spaces, this device brings together advanced leak detection, freeze alerts, and fast installation to give you reliable, around-the-clock protection.
Why Water Detection Matters More Than Ever
Water-related issues are not rare. In fact, they’re the second most common home insurance claim, making up 29.4% of all home claims. However, only 17% of homeowners use flood and freeze sensors.
