Water alarms

A smoke detector, but for water

Every Sonin alarm runs on one 9V battery and a sensor you place where water strikes first. When water bridges the contacts, a piercing tone sounds — and keeps sounding until you know about it.

Alarm & powerAll three: loud continuous tone · 9V battery · wired (corded) sensors — nothing wireless to pair or fail · circuit test button · low-battery signal · wall-mount hardware included

Rule of thumb: pick by where the water shows up. Flat sensor for open floors and drain pans, corded puck for pits and tight spots, dual sensors when one room has two ways to leak. (Every sensor is wired to its alarm — "remote" means on a cord, not wireless.)

No WiFi required

Nothing to pair, update, or resubscribe to. Ideal for basements, rentals, boats, and vacation homes where connectivity is unreliable.

Corded sensor design

The sensor rides a 6–12 ft cord — wired, not wireless — reaching sump pits and drain pans while the alarm mounts where you'll hear it. Nothing to pair, no signal to drop.

Test-button certainty

Press the circuit test button any time to confirm the whole system works. A low-battery chirp tells you when to swap the 9V.
